Be unwritten yet inspired

I think my most favorite song in the world is Unwritten by Natasha Bedingfield. Part of the chorus goes like this: This week is the week of Pentecost, the birthday of the Christian church according to the story in the second chapter of the book of Acts in the Bible. It was the day that […]

Persist

Anyone who knows me knows that I wear several bracelets. It’s something I started doing a few years ago, mainly because I wanted to express myself, but also because some have words I wanted to focus on. I’ve mentioned them in a few blogs posts here as well. One of the words I have on […]

I’ve posted a few of those beautiful days on my Instagram, documenting the beauty and the magic of the warm spring […]

Stay Magical

“The artist, if he is not to forget how to listen, must retain the vision which includes angels and dragons and unicorns, and all the lovely creatures which our world would put in a box marked, Children Only.” Madeleine L’Engle “Walking on Water“ I had a recent conversation with an older friend, who had heard […]
