In This Together
When you look in the mirror, what do you see? It depends on who’s looking. For many kids, while they see themselves reflected over the sink, they rarely see themselves in young adult books and movies. That’s where In This Together Media shines like a beacon, beckoning All kids, of All races, sexual orientation, and… Continue reading In This Together

MindFULL Summah Inspahration
Ahh…finally. The dog days of summer have rolled in, and with them blooms of inspiration abound. As I clean off my iPad and iPhone, making way for new pics and memories, podcasts, books and a few TV shows, I feel the soft slow beat of ease. Two fun TV shows fill my iPad: Season 2… Continue reading MindFULL Summah Inspahration
Beautiful

While I want for little in the “Stuff” department, there is something I pray to receive. Perspective. For me, Perspective is the greatest gift. It’s free. I can give… Continue reading Be of Ease

Souper Sunday
Normally I post on Mondays, (MindFULL Mondays), but as we set the clocks back one hour, I had to find a way to make the dark, cold nights upon us, warmer. So this morning, as I woke up to the bright sun at 6:30am and thought about my day ahead and what to make for… Continue reading Souper Sunday
