Perhaps

A guy I know committed suicide yesterday. I didn’t know him well, but it makes me sad all the same. I hope God is merciful and gracious and loving, but perhaps He isn’t, since we’re made in His image and most of us aren’t any of . . . → Read More: Perhaps

Susan Werner – After All Of This

After All Of This
By Susan Werner

I would like to think
There’s something
After all of this
When life’s final kiss
Has faded
I will have waited to see
If there might be more
Still another door to open

But after all of this

Beauty Is Everywhere

Isn’t it remarkable how humans are so adaptable? The nursing home, which a few days ago seemed like one of the most God-forsaken places on earth, now doesn’t seem so bad.

Why do you carry a pocket of stone?
Body and mind are tired of the load
Still searching for . . . → Read More: Beth Hart – Sky Full Of Clover

Worth Living For

I apologize for the depressing tone of my writings over the past week, but I can’t pretend to be in a joyful frame of mind. I mentioned to my partner that I might not write about certain things, but he (being a psychology major) felt that it might be therapeutic. Hopefully, I’ll be back to “normal” . . . → Read More: Worth Living For
