Chapters of Love and Life
I hope you enjoy reading my shares as much as I have loved creating them. May they take you places deep, where you have been, may be or places where you may be taken. May they be an aid in your living and healing. May they travel with you in your heart, hold and comfort you in your time; knowing that you are never alone in any thing. Others have been there, tasted the same bitter and painful moments. We survive when we know that there is an Almighty God looking over us and that there are others thinking of you. They too have known what you know.

Pawprint on Heart The sun was just beginning to set, casting a warm, golden hue across the neighbourhood. Sam sat on the porch, the familiar silence of the evening wrapping around him like a comforting blanket. He glanced at the empty spot beside him, where Buster, his loyal golden retriever, used to sit every evening. It had been a week since Buster had passed away, but the pain in Sam's heart felt as raw as the day it happened.

Sleeping Diary
I always carried my diary beside my bed, not for the usual reason of writing down incidents of the day, but for something far more frivolous. I entitled it "Sleeping Diary." It all started on one lazy Sunday afternoon when my mom began recounting stories of her dreams during childhood, funny sleep habits, and those half-awake moments she forgot by morning. She suggested I write down whatever I could remember the next morning as about my own dreams or sleep adventures, and thus my little project was born.

Ten Years Gone...
NOTE: I wrote this ten years ago. Since then, I had two husbands pass away and moved four times. Now I'm deep into middle age and more settled in myself; I'm in a much better place mentally. But the world...hasn't changed. In light of current U.S. and world events and the recent election it's wild how it's still relevant. I could have written this yesterday. I saved it in an email draft, and came across while cleaning out old messages.

When Birth And Death Collide
Introduction: The Power of Life's Extremes Understanding Life's Deepest Duality Life has a unique way of presenting us with moments that completely change the way we see the world. Few experiences are as profound as birth and death, and when they appear in close proximity, they create a powerful emotional and philosophical clash. Whether it's the joy of welcoming a new family member shortly after a loved one's passing or the loss of a family member right after the arrival of a baby, the juxtaposition of these two events forces us to confront the mysteries and meaning of life. In this article, we'll explore what happens when birth and death intersect, how people navigate these experiences, and why this combination can profoundly change us.
