   My new best friends are with me everyday. They support me like none other and they are ready in a moment’s notice. I sincerely do not know what I would do without them. Well I do know, I would be walking around blind most of my day. I would not be able to …
Into The Mystic

Autumn…My Favorite Season
  Slowly, and with little notice, he becomes a routine visitor bringing me brisk, fresh air early in the day and bidding me goodbye midmorning. As the days grow shorter- he tarries longer. I welcome his stay knowing that it is a brief sojourn between the heat of summer and the cold of winter. His …

Going Off The Beaten Path

Rainy Day Memories With My Father
  I heard the thunder rolling in today and along with it came memories of my childhood. Wonderful memories of sitting on my parents’ covered front porch watching the skies with my father. It was a ritual of ours. Sitting out there daring the rain to blow upon us, knowing it rarely did so. …
Sounds of Silence
   As I sit here surrounded by a shroud of silence, I come to relish it. There is something to love in the quiet peace at the end of the day. Looking out into the dark pool of night in the countryside. I have found that there are so many sounds of silence. I …
