and Purposeful Prose
When I spotted these brown evergreens it made me wonder. Evergreens aren't meant to be brown. It's in their name. What happened that turned these young saplings from their hopeful green future to this lifeless clone army? Since ALL (not simply one) were decimated, my first guess was disease. It rains aplenty here. Lack of [...]

I won't chase mirages My soul's too thirsty for the truth Set my heart to flame Till I'm wholly consumed And if the earth should shake I'll be standing through and through I won't settle for tarnished trinkets I've found my treasure trove in You. Tina April 29, [...]
I felt led to share this, in case there was anyone out there who needed it… Do you have a personal relationship with God? If not, then I invite you to begin one today. I promise you that you will not regret it. Having a relationship with the Lord will bring comfort and peace into […]The [...]
A Google search can reveal a lot. However, it isn't always true. Nevertheless, this saying is true: don't believe everything you hear. I wanted to know who said knowledge is power. According to Wikipedia it is commonly attributed to Sir Frances Bacon, but there is no known occurrence of this exact phrase in his English [...]

Don't keep buying what you cannot feel You may not see it That doesn't make it real Don’t forget that the sun still shines We're not alone But [...]
About three years ago I became very sensitive to hair colouring so I decided I'd ditch the dye. My ears were insanely itchy! I wanted to stop colouring eventually, anyways, so I went for it. I failed the first attempt. As those silver strands started to appear at the top of my head I wasn't [...]
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 [...]
I've been saving this one for so long my bananas are mushy. Nevertheless, even an overripe banana can be made into banana bread. If you're superstitious then you may throw daggers at me (or bananas) but I'm not one bit superstitious. There is the odd superstition that's pretty super. It's quite sensible to avoid running with [...]
And don't come back another day... If I'm honest I just want to hide I don't know what to say anymore And I don't want to hear anymore Not what God has to say Just what the world keeps murmuring It's too overwhelming I don't know which way to turn To God, of course, but… [...]
