The Seven Houses of Sin
Men are quick to believe what is already true in their minds. I stood in front of the mirror in a hotel room thinking these words to myself. I often forget that other people struggle with their own problems because I am so wrapped up in my own, living in sin. People only see what you expose.

Marigold
It was the summer of 1997 that I found a new appreciation for life as I knew it. A seven year old girl moved in with her grandmother 2 and a half hours away from home, and NOTHING made sense about why my mother sent me away. The day I moved in, I remember watching the adults set up my bedroom furniture and thinking to myself….”my life will never be the same”. I watched them arrange things for a little while and then I went outside to the backyard. I picked the area with the most color mixed in with the grass and sat down. I picked through the flowers, one by one, until I stopped….dead in my thoughts, when I saw the marigold.
