Time has not passed long here.
I've waited to feed your soul.
But peace came with a price.
I didn't plan to sit idly by.
He did not do what he did to me, to you.
But what he did to you was try to protect you.
That was wrong and now you hear me.
A little too late for me, but not fo...

The attack was sudden and unprovoked.
The attack was extreme, especially to me.
I wanted to fight, I wanted to run.
I tried to live but I had to die.
A blue could lifted me to an angelic place.
Comfort and cures were all over the place.
The memory makes me mad.
The truth makes me cringe.
He could have stopped.
He should have confessed.
He could have died, but he feared his fate.
When he arrives, I will be here.

Good St. Michael
Protector of our law enforcement.
Watch over them, their families and the community.
Keep them safe,
Give them courage,
Protect their lives,
Forgive their faults.
Navigate them to overcome all obstacles.
Guide righteous actions,
Nudge gentle compassion,
And in temptation remind respect and honor.
The oath is as real as the air unseen.
Integrity, Character, Courage, and Accountablity.
Serving Truth and providing Trust.
Providing what is virtuous and right.

I adjusted my eyes to see exactly what I was imagining within the glow of the campfire. The reality of the two little eyes that were staring back at me was real. It was a frog. The little frog had hopped into the firepit and was shivering under a log. Attempting to move the flames away from him, I hoped he would jump out of the pit. He did not. I knew I could not stick my own hand in or I would be burnt, so I pondered what to do as he retracted further into the pit behind some cardboard. I told ...

That man brought those flowers. Paid cash and asked to be anonymous. He was a friend. A friend of hers from high school. He knew she was an addict. He always found her attractive and would have liked to maintain a relationship with her but she chose the drugs over him.
Heartbroken, he went on his way and had a successful life in all he did, but always felt like a failure for not being able to help her.
Now he was helping, decorating her lonely memorial service with multiple floral designs. H...

Water falls caressing the earth.
Nurturing its blooms.
The water falling from your fluttering eyelids will eventually guide you to grow.
No need to dry the tears for they will heal the wound.

Did you know when you die, your problems remain?
Not health problems, but whatever the issues you didn't deal with.
They remain to be solved by you.
But how?
The answer my friend is in the love that you shared.
The love you received and the love you become.
So don't procrastinate, live your life and find peace with your abilities.
If you can't have peace, know it is the same in heaven.
The truth is that being on good terms with people while in body, allows you
the easiest transi...

There are those whose presence in the world, will be forever missed.
Yet their absence becomes a presence in your soul after death.
May that new found presence encourage life's journey abundantly.
