Well, 2015 is truly here. I cannot believe that it has already been a full year. It is this kind of belief that is the old adage we all grew up hearing, but now live: "Time flies as you get older!" As much as I try to hold on to time through old photos or… Continue reading Farewell, 2014 →

I actually had a finished blog ready to post. I then decided that writing out of anger sounded judgmental and, really, probably was judgmental. The last thing I want to feel towards Kim Kardashian-West is anger and judgment. I don't know the woman, and it is not my place. I am sure you are well… Continue reading Some Thoughts on Kim →

I would like to take a moment and, in full discretion, admit that I am a human being. There are times when I fully embrace all of my faults and weaknesses and boldly declare that it is a humbling thing to be human. Then, there are other times that I feel absolutely deceived by my… Continue reading Beyond the Valley →

For the past week, those of us who stay connected to all-things newsworthy, have seen the downward, hopeful upward and sad, repeated downward spiral of what is happening in Ferguson, Missouri. We have been shown the faces of serious politicians, a peaceful State Trooper and the intimidation of the National Guard. Like a book with… Continue reading Why What’s Happening in Ferguson, MO Matters →

I have had the pleasure of coming across multiple posts regarding the new movie 50 Shades of Grey. Strangely, all I have read are the opinions of men who are either against women watching it and the men who are for anyone seeing it at their own will. I'm sure Rachel Held Evans has written on… Continue reading “50 Shades” And Human Worth →

There is space in all its illuminated mystery and lab coats behind desks who burn for more. There is a theologian who still hunts for more words, and all I can stand to… Continue reading What About the Pineapple? →

The church that I have attended for the past three years is committed to many things, but the main deal is to "Lead people into a transforming relationship with Jesus." This belief is written on walls, papers, handouts and there are probably tattoos at this point. The leaders of this congregation so boldly believe this… Continue reading To be transformed →

More specifically, what does it mean to be bold and to be a woman? I have come to realize that the boldness that is often described when it comes to a woman incorporates the CEO, like YAHOO!'s Marissa Mayer, and a do-it-all-in-one-fell-swoop Martha Stewart. We often believe that bold women are those that can stop… Continue reading What does it mean to be bold? →

It's something in the way the morning breeze floats right in, bouncing off uncombed hairs, awakening the skin on our bones It's the whispering of that breeze, tickling our eyelashes as we lie on our backs, closing out our dreams and bringing the body into a new day There is such a comfort in the… Continue reading The Morning →

I love sharing. I love having a tea in hand, sitting across from someone with a listening ear and exchanging what has been transformational in each of our lives.  I have walked out of those moments feeling like life has been breathed into me, and truly believing that that is what life is supposed to… Continue reading Learning Silence →
