So be it. Let it be. An affirmation of agreement. I saw this t-shirt on a student recently. So grateful he permitted me to take this shot. This has been part of my roadmap to peace. It has helped to clear out much of the ‘other options’ life offers. This is how I’ve simplified myContinue reading “AMEN”

Less of That
This morning I went walking along my usual route. I love walking. As I breathed in the fresh morning air, I reflected on the number of times I’d walked that road- worried. Days when there were more questions than answers. Slowly I began to realize, everything that held me captive those days were no longerContinue reading “Less of That”
What If We Begin…
This quote caught my attention this morning: If God could take someone away that you thought you would never lose – imagine the person He could give you that you thought you’d never find. What if we begin to trust God to truly turn the broken pieces into a master piece, the pain into purposeContinue reading “What If We Begin…”
In the Midst of It All
“PEACE. The place I’ve learned to live. Not because there are no storms, but I’ve found that there’s indeed peace in the midst of it all. Not because there are no wars within and without. Despite the conflicts that rage on – I’ve found a place where I am unmoved. I sit at YOUR feetContinue reading “In the Midst of It All”
July -Then & Now
I don’t always think about this day, but today I did. July 3rd is the anniversary of my departure from my beloved island nation. Over 30+ years ago, I left the ‘Land of Wood and Water’ for the streets of the Big Apple. In my limited thinking, my world had collapsed. Everything that meant anythingContinue reading “July -Then & Now”
Raging Storms
I grew up in a hurricane zone. Storms, hurricanes, and flooding are no strangers to me. Though I am not consumed by fear of nature’s song and dance, I am well aware of its rage and power. Today it has been forecasted that we’ll be in the path of Uncle Milton. All around, there’s aContinue reading “Raging Storms”
A New York Minute
I’ve been in town for a few days primarily to visit my dad, who isn’t doing so well. Watching your parents diminish in strength and vitality can be emotionally taxing. I observe his wife and listen to all she has to say. It has also taken a toll on her. My heart breaks as IContinue reading “A New York Minute”
Funny How
My son literally did college with me. As a toddler, he hung out with just about any of my college friends who had some free time. On days when I had babysitting emergencies, they often rotated watching him, so I could get a class or two in. He roamed this campus – very energetic andContinue reading “Funny How”
I Sleep
I discovered the art of going to sleep. I decided to rest from worrying. The entire landscape of my life’s journey has changed. Peace no longer evades me as I learned to stop trying to control the outcomes. I embraced my limitations and trusted the only One who knows all things. I gave Him latitudeContinue reading “I Sleep”
Sometimes I Want to Know
This is one of my favorite things to do while traveling. I love the details – to know the where, the when, and how fast. Why do I want this information? I’m not too sure, but I love having it. Don’t you wish life offered this channel as an option. If you’re like me, thereContinue reading “Sometimes I Want to Know”
