                              CALM

The word
to me
evokes a sense of
peace, serenity and tranquility.

I want to be done with
panic and chaos and anger and guilt and overreactions.
I don't want there to be a place for such negativity in my life.
Instead,
this year,
I want to find, establish and nuture a calmness within myself
make peace with my heart
and create calm around me.


My instinct is usually the opposite end of the spectrum from calm
but
I figure
that it is time that I changed that.
Sure,
it is not going to be an easy transformation
but
we don't grow if we don't
 

You're a Gift

"The only difference between a flower and a weed is a judgement!"

If you give a crack addict $ 100.00, and she may use that money to buy more crack, or she may use that money to buy her kids some food. Is it really important to know what she does with that money

A road might end at a single house.
but it's not love's road.

Love is a river.
Drink from it.
