  • Leaving the Oak Tree

    I’m going to stop worrying about my future and start to believe that it will all fall into place like magic just as a jigsaw puzzle falls out of the box to the ground and it’s complete! . More importantly, I’m going to believe that I actually have a future. I’m going to start to…

  • What’s on the calendar for…

    I know there must be something. Most people tell me they have a list and go through it every day because they say they’re so busy.

    Despair

    The most accurate word to describe the times we are living in is despair. There are those people who can continue without noticing the darkness inside of them. Even they are stumbling. The children are feeling despair. Very little for them to do about it. Days come and go. Rain falls. I notice the children’s…

    Wishes

    I wish I could write: “Last night I dreamed of Manderley”, but last night I dreamt of my father. It was the strangest dream I’ve ever had. I was on vacation with some friends, and I had promised my father to go on vacation with him. We were settling into our rooms when suddenly I…
