I must clear my head. I awoke this morning to a mind fuzzy with dreams of pain and loss, bits of yesterday and the longings of today. In fact I suppose I could categorize myself as somewhat sad. There is a slight feeling of need biting under my skin and it begs for touch. My … Continue reading »

Plans change …
It seems this adage is true: Plans can and do change. It’s funny how easily we over look that this is the only thing constant in life. Whether we’re ready for it or not.
