Goodbye
Some years ago my mother decided we would no longer say goodbye to each other when we leave the house or hang- up the phone…because goodbye was to final and it meant the relationship/connection was over. My siblings adhered to the change easily, I on the other hand often times fell back into the traditional salutation. It…

Weekend
It was a terrible Friday, a transitional Saturday but today is Supernatural Sunday. Everybody has things, situations, circumstances that cause them to spiral down into desperation and smoldering despair.

Wait…Stay
Stay…around, please don’t leave, don’t walk away, don’t give up on your promise. You have what and who it takes to make it through this, past this. You’re going to get to your expected end.
