just listen! what are you grateful for right now?
Our greatest challenge today: to witness the injustice and not let it consume our inner light. And to still find something to be grateful for. For that, we must sit still and just listen.

Festive Sonnet Sunday: Experiments In Fiction #Sonnet No. 5
To borrow Guardini's quote, may our hearts be quickened by love, and free will stir us to action so that spiritual conception can happen. And may we soon turn to our stillness within to allow the blessings to seep in. I bless you and wish you safe and joyous festivities.

If you're feeling sad today, I wish to offer you a little wisdom I gathered from a sunflower today. Know you're not alone and perk up in the knowledge that Sunflowers do grow in winter. Happy Holidays, my friends.

Merry Old Christmas is Here
The country that raised me boasted of one season throughout the year, but perhaps it was because we wished for snow so much, but at Christmas time, we often pulled out sweaters to ward off the chill. And mother read us stories of Christmases in cold countries. Hope you enjoy these from Librivox.

If Something Is Amiss Tomorrow, Find Me Here #poetry
Neither one thing nor the other, but something betwixt and between-- the “liminal” spaces that linger in places, situations, relationships and life. This poem is written for someone particular in my life. This person might never read this, but that's fine; let it exist in the liminal edges out there. Enjoy.
