and Purposeful Prose
I'm a fish Blub blub blub Don’t ask I'm trying something different Thinking outside my box It was kind of cramped in there anyways. Wait a minute I'm a fish Fishes don’t have boxes They swim the ocean with ease Sometimes we call them seas So seize the day And be a fish If you [...]
This isn’t what I planned on posting. I'm not feeling happy with what I was going to share, and to be honest the day is attempting to kick me in the teeth. As I started to get tearful, hope and joy began to run the other way. Get back here!!! Stop being cowards!!!! Okay, that [...]
Stay Hopeful. Yes, I am telling myself this too. I have two songs by Ryan Stevenson. I'll let the rest say the rest. Sometimes you have to let someone else do the talking. "The LORD is my strength and my song. He is my savior." Psalm 118:14 The Best is Yet to Come https://youtu.be/3frQkfgejDk "Some [...]
I can't believe that September is here again. This month marks another year of blogging. I may do some looking back as I've traditionally done for the last few years. It gives me a chance to see what God has done. It's so good to focus on the positives, right? We can also go over [...]
I'm always thrilled to discover new artists, even if they're only new to me. Andrew appreciates it too. Since my discovery of Simon Khoroliskiy he's played Simon's tunes over and over. I'm glad that he finds comfort in his music. However, I think Simon is officially living with us now. Matthew Parker Parker is considered [...]

The third time's the charm? Yes, charm sounds about right. When I came across this video I knew it wasn't a coincidence that there was a woodland flower as I'd written in my poem [Woodland Flower.] What are the odds that the words of this song would also start with "I'm waking up"… just as [...]
It's okay not to feel okay. These words are just as much for me as they are for anyone else who is struggling right now. There are a lot of really strong people doing a lot of great and brave things right now, and to be honest it makes me feel so inadequate. I was [...]
To write or not to write, that is the question. Should I start the week off with something in my drafts, some poetry, or should I write about my week? Okay, let's start with where I am. That's a good place to start, right? For the most part April was a better than normal month [...]
So much for see you Monday! (lol) I have to share this song! It's TOO good not to share. Trading Yesterday has other great pieces that are so worth sharing, and I may have to gather some and give them more of a spotlight, but for now this song has won my heart. Not as [...]
