Is there a Love amidst our faults that are too many? Is there a Love before we prove anything? Is there a Love after we've done everything wrong? https://youtu.be/BWPlCep0lgU *inspired by author Ann Voscamp.
I am Powerful Over My Addiction.
I am powerful over my addiction. This, is the new step one. Well, it's not the easiest thing to digest. Not the easiest thing to admit (if admit is even the best word choice - ??? - probably not). It's like throwing a wrench into a wheel (or whatever that image is) - it's a [...]
2021: The Coming To Our Senses.
Because it's still true. "You don't know what you have here. You simply don't know what you have." I doubt if anyone really understood what he meant. He was obviously speaking about America and telling us we did not appreciate what it was. -jacob needleman As long as this body [...]
Learning to Live Loved.
It's something you don't understand until you're ready to understand. Second graders aren't ready to understand calculus. And that's important to mention because you don't give up - you keep going - until you understand. She* was talking about her beliefs and said, "I didn't trust Love." Those words came to me like a power [...]
The Oppression Connection.
If I really wanted to participate in social change for all - to heal the oppression for all – if I really believed in unity for all – and we the people – I’d have to go nowhere other than looking into my own eyes to see what wants to be seen. It’s [...]

Nothing less than a disease of my soul, upon which I plan to cure. The plan to cure my not-enoughness. To clear out the infection of rejection and to start injecting with [...]
The Beauty Collection
A Grace-Filled Beauty Routine There’s nothing anti (opposed or against) about it. I am aging. A wise woman once told me, “When you argue with reality, you lose.” And the reality is, I have reached an age where I find myself in the “anti-aging” section. Much the same as one moves through the children’s section, [...]
Jazz I Am.
Human Jazz Interdependence they say. The interdependence of me. Like Jazz. Human Jazz I am. An orchestra of my biological self, senses (a five piece band), and emotional body that feels. The small-mind of me, the higher-mind of me, and everything in between. My so-called soul and spirit. Holy it all is. [...]
Emancipation.
Soul-Emancipation To free my soul from mental and societal constraints. To free my soul from trivial pursuits. Free from insignificance. To free my soul from worthless matters. Free from biological and psychological pollutants. Free from the embedded atmosphere of toxic intoxication. Free from the useless rhythms of the mind. And from that which stagnates the [...]
Scriptures, Swine, & Shame
PICK UP YOUR MAT John 5: 3-9 Do you want to get well? Goodness asked. And I did not hear. I hate my life. I hate my life. I hate my life. And Truth reminded me - I don't hate my life - I hate my current life circumstances. I have hate for my existence, [...]
