My field of vision can be so short sighted, I can barely see past my own nose or should I say beyond my current situation. About the time I think I have gained insight as to who I am or what I am to offer others, here comes another circumstance to help set me [...]

My mental thought process can come and go in waves with very little coming to mind or an overload of input. This day we are to fly back to California and I find myself wondering about the past few days. There is certainly a peace about being in vacation mode where the biggest decision to [...]

Thanksgiving is a special day for all beyond our stuffing the bellies full of tasty treats. We are thankful for so many things. We are grateful for the many tangible ways we are blessed. We have jobs. We have a home. We have food to eat. And more importantly we have the love of our [...]

The lie….
Come on, now.
I hear you’re feeling down.
Well I can ease your pain,
Get you on your feet again.
The truth…
Come on, now.
I hear you’re feeling down.
Well I can ease your pain,

Arising early I hear HIS voice calling…

Come again I have more to speak

Quiet
Rest daughter in MY arms
You don’t expect ME
I come like the wind
Softly I breeze

But when the words of His song
Are singing through the birds
I can’t help but die,
so He can take me higher
I can’t help but die,
so He can take me higher

Chorus – Lyrics of Skin is Burning by Burlap To Cashmere
