The Exchange.
You know, I’ve been thinking about my old friend again. It's been a long time. He was such a good guy. Not perfect, not polished, but real. He was wild, yeah. He liked to drink, and he ate too much. Loud. Laughing all the time. Always cracking jokes. One of those people who could walk into a room and change the whole mood. He was full of life, and I loved him for that.

What Do You Do When the Year Isn’t Over, but You Feel Like You’ve Lived a Lifetime Already?
We're only halfway through the year, but it feels like I’ve lived three. And I don't mean that in a dramatic, throwaway kind of way. I mean it in the sense that something has shifted. Quietly. Deeply. Permanently.

A Review of CeCe Winans' NPR Tiny Desk Concert.
Excerpt: CeCe Winans’ Tiny Desk concert is a heartfelt celebration of her 30 years in music. With her calm strength and soulful presence, she carries each song with grace and a steady rhythm that pulls you in. From the tender moments to the joyful finale, this performance is a reminder of why her music has touched so many hearts. It lit up my day, and I hope it brings the same light to yours as mine.

Cutting Back the Garden: On Friendship, Memory, and the Quiet Grace of Letting Go.
There are pictures on my phone of flowers I once held in my hand. Bright, soft things. Bursts of pink, blue, yellow, and red. I took those photos without thinking much at the time. Just beauty. Just light. But recently, while scrolling through my gallery, I stopped at one of those flower pictures and felt something more. A memory came with it. A person, actually. Not someone I see anymore. Not someone I even talk to. Someone I let go. Or maybe, someone I had to cut away.

I Watched "The Cleaner" After Hearing "The Alignment Chant".
You can listen to this story here: Earlier today, I listened to The Alignment Chant by Lawrence Oyor, a soft and rhythmic invocation that calls in the presence of purpose. I fall in alignment with the angel of my destiny, the angel of my calling, the angel of my books...

Review: Last Scene.
Before we get into the review, a quick note for anyone wondering why my blog might seem to jump between topics—film, music, tech, daily life, the mystical, the mundane. The truth is, I don’t believe in accidents. I believe that everything I experience, whether profound or playful, comes into my path for a reason. I curate my reflections the way some people collect postcards or dreams, not by theme, but by feeling. Whether it’s a short film shot on a phone or a moment of stillness in a crowded day, if it stays with me, I write about it. Because in the end, it all connects.

Breaking Free: My Experience of a Spiritual Binding Lifted by God’s Power.
You can listen to this story here: Since moving into my home last December, I have noticed strange numbers written on the walls. At first, I tried to ignore them, thinking perhaps it was paranoia or some leftover marks from before I arrived. But something about those numbers unsettled me deeply. They felt like more than just marks; they felt like a spiritual barrier. I tried to wipe them away before, but they would not come off. Today, following a powerful prompting from the Holy Spirit, I wiped them clean. To my surprise, they came off easily.
