trickle

a calming presence was needed

the weight of a hand on a shoulder

an ear to listen to

a hand to hold

marbled chocolate

i love this time of year.

as i ran across the parking lot, a gust of wind carried leaves in its gentle movement.

i heard the chattering of the leaves.

then i heard the rain on my window as i sat at my dining room table.

reason to stay

when nothings satisfies you....

hold my hand

mornings

something new is happening

i see the humour

i feel the joy

i wonder..... and i trust

joy

she got a flask...

the side of it read,

"medicated and motivated"

whisper

we have grown over the years.

grown in family.

grown in love.

something new

it feels like home to me

it feels like i'm all the way back to where i come from

it feels like home to me

it feels like i'm all the way back where i belong

good friend and a glass of wine

in His time

not mine

there is perfection

celebrate

my beautiful nieces...

one cannot collect all the beautiful shells on the beach.

one can collect only a few,

and they are more beautiful if they are few.

there are times when you want to capture an image or a moment just so you can look back.

what happens if you can't capture it?

will it remain?

will the beauty of it last?

i do know that each moment or image is beautiful in it's own way.

although you missed one sunset, there is another one tomorrow that will be just as spectacular

... in it's own way.

i am looking forward to seeing beauty in the next moment.

Without roots we can neither discover where we belong, nor can we grow.

Without stability we cannot confront the basic questions of life.

Without stability we cannot know our true selves.

It is only as we put down roots into the earth that we begin to see the fruits.

To be earthed is to come alive in a new sense of mission.

A new capacity to give life is born, not by myself but in the body of community.

deeper

One life

With each other

Sisters

Brothers

One life

But we're not the same

We get to

Carry each other

Carry each other

I've learned that people will forget what you said,

people will forget what you did,

but people will never forget how you made them feel.

can you see?

For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then we will see face to face.

Now I know only in part; then I will know fully,

even as I have been fully known.
