Today’s post was inspired by L. Marie’s blog from her post Day Brightener.

In order to avoid my fate, I stopped living.
The Battle
Welcome folks. It’s been a while since I posted something, and I’ve had some deep thoughts I want to share.
So much has been happening in our society in 2020, and reports everywhere make it sound like the sky is falling. It’s difficult to decipher what is true and what is false. Is this more “chicken little” paranoia, or are we really getting toppled by the falling sky?
Why is it that some people feel they can control everything?

Best Laid Plans

Savannah
by Lori (L. Virelli)
It’s been twenty years
since we first started.
Almost twelve since we stopped.
Those dozen years mended our pain.

picked out for you. Continue reading “Savannah”
