Sometimes, we float on the surface of life.We drift with the currents of the everyday.Carried along by circumstance, not dreams,Conforming to expectations and plans. Sometimes, hope rises to the surfaceSo our dreams can breathe again.And the winds of chance and changeCan allow us to find new ways to live.

reasons to write – 2
For a personal blog, which this is, the reasons to write are all about me! Writing here is somewhere I can be most free. I am free to decide what I say and how. Free to share as much or as little as I want. And I'm able to decide why I write. My reasons… Continue reading reasons to write – 2
blog or instagram?
This is a working-through-my-process kind of post. I'm just starting out. I'm still working things out. And I'm deciding where I'm going. So. I'm neither an expert on blogging or on Instagram. But I do use both. I started writing on Instagram not knowing how to use it. I wasn't even a follower of anyone.… Continue reading blog or instagram?
a second chance
A second chance in life. Starting over. Being reborn. A new beginning ... We hear this so often, it's become a clichรฉ. But there's a reason we hear it often. And whatever it might be called, it is our choice to make. At any stage of life, there is the potential to become something different.… Continue reading a second chance

my writing journey
I tell myself that this writing journey is new for me. Certainly, sharing it publicly is. Sharing it with anyone really. When I began writing and posting on Instagram in November 2021, it was a spontaneous form of self-expression. But there was also an absolute need or compulsion to share my feelings and thoughts through… Continue reading my writing journey
then & now
The journey that began for me around a year ago was from a place of uncertainty and challenge. The changes that followed were from a place of need and desperation. They came at last, or began at least, when my heart opened. When a heart is open it can release what it needs to. And… Continue reading then & now
time lost. and found
The most interesting thing about this piece, for me, is that when I set out to write it, I had something completely different in mind. A different image. A different piece of writing. Then this happened. Sometimes, you just have to go with whatever comes ... When I wrote on Instagram yesterday, one of the… Continue reading time lost. and found
on my way
My SoulTree Journey began a year ago. A year ago I was still stuck in an apartment on the 31st floor, not knowing how much longer it would be before I could continue on my way. It would be another 3 months. 20 months in all. But back then, it was like time had no… Continue reading on my way
