I passionately run forward into the "everything" that awaits. The beauty, the bounty, and the love; I run towards it all. And yet, this intense forward motion seems to be a series of short sprints, rather than an epic marathon of uncompromising growth and expansion.

Nothing can negate or diminish that true force of divine presence, ever. But each soul has the right to trust their own Light for guidance and direction or to… Continue reading Loving Those In Shadowed Spaces
Choosing A Path of Grace and Ease
Where we are is a reflection of all the choices and decisions we've made along the way. Each single step has added to the story of our unique and individual journey.
