Becoming Light

So fellow travelers, one of the things I love most about being part of an authentic creative community is the ripple effect of inspiration which runs through the work we share.

Resiliency, Nets and Webs

So fellow travelers,  with one of his poems today, my friend Tom Atkins made a comment on resiliency. “Life knocks us down. Sometimes we get up again. Sometimes we don’t. To this day, I don’t know where our resilience ends, or why. I don’t know where it begins, or why. I just know both are […]
