Quilting, healing, rethinking what things look like

The worrying leads to self-doubt and this barely resistible urge to run at top speed to some place else. Greener pastures or what appears to be greener pastures. The other … Continue reading Gratitude in the “strange” places
Welcome to 2015 – Journey
Welcome to 2015 my prayer is a deeper sense of God's Mercy and of God's Creative sense. As I read this first sentence I am in awe of how these are the same thing, God is all One and in my humanness I see this as different pieces. For me as a human it is … Continue reading Welcome to 2015 – Journey
