A Mother’s Protection…(Guest Blog)
Today, a talented young writer, Joelle Denoff, is guest blogging – I wanted to share her wisdom and her love with all of you. May you be blessed. I recall as a child always looking to my parents for protection when I felt vulnerable… Continue Reading “A Mother’s Protection…(Guest Blog)”
Be Loved…
Sounds simple: let yourself be loved. I think we make it about looks, or smarts, or what we have – trying to be loved for who we think we should be. Before school age, children have no concept of this. They just are –… Continue Reading “Be Loved…”
Then Monday…
Ever have one of those? A Monday – the one you weren’t expecting but thought you had all planned? Not too long ago Tuesday was supposed to be a blue sky, low temp, low humidity South Florida day (those get rarer this time of… Continue Reading “Then Monday…”
Restless…

The Exchange…
A twenty-something guy ran out to meet a man at his car. The older man handed him four suit coats – as they walked he said “If they don’t fit, I’ll help you get them altered.” I’m guessing the young man had job interviews… Continue Reading “The Exchange…”
When Light Hits…
Early morning, no lights on yet, I reached into the cabinet to find a towel – the stripes looked dull gray. I knew they were red. Science says color is sensations on the eye as a result of the way the object reflects or emits… Continue Reading “When Light Hits…”
