First week of the New Year, and I feel ready. Grounded, anchored. This is my year of the edit; listening more, adjusting readily, hearing and heeding...This year, I commit to focusing more on the work of others, finding a companionable rhythm, no longer needing to drive the narrative or set the pace, but rather listening to the quiet place where I may and should conjoin.
A Decade to Find My Way, OneWord 2021
We Are the New Creation. It's Time We Started Acting Like It. This year, I shed false humility. This year, I release the shackles of Imposter Syndrome. If Mary could proclaim the greatness of our God and the favor with which God gazes upon us, then so shall I.

My Baby Has Reached Double-Digits (How a Puppy Changed my Life)
My Dog is So Awesome I Wrote a Book About Him It started out as a dare, but I took it.

Every interaction is motivated by a deep and abiding love.
You can Try to Bury Power, but it Won’t Stay There.
I never stop when I should. I have never believed that the rules of self and soul care applied to me, even as I excoriate those I loved, "Do Better." I steadfastly refuse to take my own advice.
Broken I Came to the Cross (A Repost, but Still Relevant)
A repost from a while ago. Often, it's experiencing your own words through someone else's lens that makes them fresh again.
Life in the time of COVID-19
We all have the right, and the capacity, to Love (God). We simply need to grant ourselves permission.
Thursday Confessional-the Community Service Edition
I'm going Facebook Live on Friday to do a martini tutorial. So many of you have asked me to teach you, so why not. We're all trying to make the best of where we are right now....let's call it libation. Let's call it Communion (look it up, I have NOT blasphemed). See y'all Friday, 6 pm Eastern. I'll post a resource list.
