Our tragedies don’t always make us better warriors,
don’t always make us stronger
having our wings singed,
and faith pulled forcibly from our hearts.
But we do become more human
as we see our brothers
our sisters, struggling
somehow
we know the scars
as we find ourselves connected
in the fight.

HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY!!
May all mothers be blessed today.
May God continue to bless your relationships with your children, and give you the strength to teach the good, and right things. May you always be blessings to each other.
And for all the millions of women, unable to have children and yet pray that they can someday, may you receive comfort in knowing that you are loved, and not forgotten.
And finally to all women fighting cancer or some other horrible illness, may you have the courage to remain positive. You are loved. We do hope and pray for healing.
May we always honor mothers, today and every day.
Amen.

It is strange sometimes, sleeping in their camp,
but I understand the fight.
Not wanting just one group, always in control
especially as a child cries for food,
in Brooklyn
and a Grandmother in Detroit
can’t afford her medicine.

Our prophecies and theologies don’t matter nearly as much,
as the love we carry, or don’t carry
in our hearts.

As I walk through this forest my God,
I thank You for Your peace, and I lift up
the poor that need healthcare,
the refugees that need freedom,
and Father in heaven, please protect
the earth. May You keep us
from imploding with hate
and greed.
Amen.

Since humility says you are more important than I am,
healing comes from the birth of respect,
and the idea, that we are each
valuable and important.
That’s where
we begin.

As many of you know I have a fiction blog, which you can find here:
www.themysticalforest.wordpress.com
Well, I’m not sure how it happened really, but there has been a noticeable change in the direction the stories have taken. I started out with some great series, including the Sacred Mountain and Sword of Talon Series.
There you will find kings and queens, swords, adventure, and romance. One of my favorite features were the Living Bows (as in bows and arrows). I was having a great time.
But you know what?? My focus as a writer has changed. Now I write a lot more about compassion, and angels helping people, and even God caring about us……h’mmm. Perhaps that was the real me in the first place.
Currently an angel is shaking up the site, his name is Henry Vu. Originally Henry was from Vietnam, and let me tell you, this dude is powerful! Powerful, as in filled with compassion.
Anyway I’m saying/writing this to let you know you will see some changes over there, including the name! I’m not sure about the new name yet, but I think it will have the word Sky or Skies in it.
Thanks for reading.
Peace.
P.S. This is not my normal morning post. I’ll be sending out a love poem shortly!
