Letter to Cessna
I didn’t realize that to love someone was different than being in love with someone. Did you? And what were we? Those moments I wasn’t around, all those moments I kept quiet, was not because I was distant. I was praying for your desires, I was praying for your joy and that it would be…

Or maybe it is the start of something new
The season of goodbyes has come. As the last flower on my orchid has fallen this July, so begins the end of it’s life. In January I wrote this would the year of my orchid, well the very thing orchids represent. Beauty. Hope. Future. How instantly things change, altering course of the future we thought…

Don’t forget to live
We spend most of our lives working so we can live and forget to live. Do the things you want to do today because tomorrow is not guaranteed. Go to the places you want to see. Take pictures. Make your own memories. But make sure you live today.

The Solo Traveler
Loss isn’t something we flaunt. We carry it privately, as though broken glass shattered and left held together by glue. We all grieve differently. Loss changes things, specifically our future, our hopes, our dreams. It changes the future we thought we were going to have. Loss isn’t always death. And sometimes harder for others to…
