I will not be quiet. And I will not hide. We have a long way still to go. But right now…I have to find my way back to the beginning. Back to where I came from in order to begin to figure out where I am now…and how the hell I got here. Are you…

It was me. It was all my fault. I am to blame. …Blame me. That’s how it feels now. And yet…that feels so unfair. Because it was you too. It was us. All of us. But then…what about him? What responsibility does HE shoulder?? None, of course. Never. Not him. He’s not to blame. It’s…

Peering out of the tinted windows of the family van, I laid eyes on a blonde-haired, crystal-blue-eyed boy for the first time and instantly knew that he was going to be fundamentally important in my life. I pointed him out to my sister who was sitting beside me and I announced as much. She seemed unmoved…

Fear is a liar. That has been my mantra of late. Fear is always a liar. The bitch of it is, it always has been and its pure insubstantiality has been proven to me time after time again. And yet, I still seem to fall for it, time after time again. How many times does…

I have a little victory to share. I’ve spent this week practicing the patience and Trust realization that I had last weekend, and I am pleased to report that it has totally panned out for me. In recent weeks, I have found a new level of steadiness and consistency in my life. This past week…

I wouldn’t call myself an impulsive person, but patience doesn’t come very easily to me. I do have a tendency to think things through before acting, but once I have thought it through, I tend to act on my conclusions immediately. Once I’ve made up my mind about something, I’m ready to follow through with it…

I have a confession to make, and I feel like it’s time to come clean. Sometimes…I feel lonely. And it’s kind of a big deal for me to say that. But I’ve been working on admitting things to myself that I typically try to push away or avoid because I have a new understanding of…
