Two days ago, my dog, Bugsy disappeared. At first I wasn't overly concerned. Being part Jack Russell and part Chihuahua, he is prone to jet out of the front door at every opportunity. . . .

Somewhere in the midst of the tears we cry
is a river that flows, strong and sure,
transporting our joy and pain
to a place where all becomes clear;
A river no longer muddied by that

Like the sun on a winter's morn,
you have come to rescue me;
beaming down into my darkest places,
you have come to set me free;
Scared am I of what lies in store;
Scared of who I've . . .

Her tiny form sat in the sand,
watching the seagulls fly;
Foam-crested waves broke upon the shore;
In the distance a sailboat passed by;
She sat with her pail and shovel,
slowly building her castle . . .

There is joy in a melody,
whether the trill of a mockingbird
or the soft strains of a lullaby
hummed in the early morn.
When melodic notes fill the air,
there is a break . . .

Do you have any toxic people in your life? You know...those people who do not seem to be satisfied until they have done everything in their power to make your life miserable. Whether intentional . . .

These are the moments
To be treasured;
Moments kissed by the sun;
Moments when joy rains down,
Waters your soul,
And you know life has just begun.
These are the moments
To be treasured; . . .

sounds of silence
beckon to me
escape the noise
run from the fray
use your thoughts
don't get lost
in the mindless chatter
of a busy day
share your love
share your joy
share your hope

This dance of ours
is simply unique;
Two steps forward,
three steps back;
Lean me over,
give me some slack;
Sometimes you release me
and I go down;
Sometimes you spin me
around and around; . . .

She came from a place unknown to most.....a place where most folks wouldn't want to go, even in their worst nightmares. And to be honest, venturing out of her home was scary. For when you live . . .

Close your eyes
and feel His love
lift you high
on the wings of a dove.
Close your eyes
and feel His embrace;
As He brings you hope,
fear leaves without a trace.
Raise your hands . . .

Christmas tree all green and red
Baby in a manger bed
Shining star of Bethlehem
Oh, what Christmas joy!
Happiness is in the air
Joyful sounds . . .

You crashed into me,
left me breathless,
and now I'm at a loss as to what to do
with you,
with us;
I wasn't searching;
I wasn't happy,
but content;
I thought that was enough
until . . .

Americans are addicted to happiness. After all, are we not taught to pursue "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness"?
The problem with this is that happiness is a fickle . . .

If I could give a piece of advice to young people, it would be simply this: Do not let anyone ever steal your joy.
Life is such a beautiful gift. There are blessings to be found . . .

In clouds that billow in the sky
In the purple sunset at the end of day
In the moonlight which lights my way
I have searched for God.
In the sound of a baby's laughter
In a mother's . . .

It was always so easy....loving you. And because it was so easy, all that I could think of was that we were "meant to be." . . .

I want to dance barefoot in the sand,
fly a kite on the breeze;
I want to look up at the clouds
filtered through the trees;
I want to run and jump and play, . . .
