Envision Your Future Ahead, Don’t Dwell on the Past

Life is full of mistakes, wrong choices, sketchy decisions and things we just simply wished we had done better. I have traveled life’s pathway long enough to have sampled a few of each of these.

Looking Toward Eternity With Increased Longing

It has been a hard day in our cozy little house. My precious momma passed peacefully into her eternal home this morning. We were waiting and watching and loving on her as we could.

Look for the Correct Door

My momma told me recently that she wanted me to paint our front door purple. Over the past few years we have gone through the white door, the black door and the (current) red door phases.

Their truth is self centered and only applies to what they want it to apply to, or … Continue reading What does truth look like? →

Trying to See Through the Madness

Yesterday was such an emotional day. For me personally, it is not enough that I am on an emotional rollercoaster right now due to my mom’s health situation and knowing she will not be with me much longer.
