Thoughts
Sometimes the hardest thing is to express feelings out loud. As we grow into adults, we learn how to keep things to our self. In our room, where we lay our head to sleep each night, we discover this is the place where thoughts are emptied. But sometimes, when conclusions can’t be found, those heavy … Read more
The Joy of being Flawed
There is joy in being flawed, it’s a reminder of being a part of humanity. There is much to learn about being imperfect, it teaches us the impossibility of doing life alone. When I make a mistake I am comforted with grace. When I am unaware, I see there is much to know. Weakness displays … Read more
Run Away
The problem with creativity is it takes time to develop. We take it for granted that it will always be there inside our brains and souls whenever we need it. During the busy seasons at work and life I find myself searching in an empty room. It seems I used up all the items in … Read more
The Speed of Change
Its so interesting when you notice change. Most of the times things seem to stay at a moderate pace. When we are in the mist of life, a part of us expects things to always remain the same; the good and the bad. The friends that surround us, family, pop culture, even the strangers that walk … Read more
The View from Up Top
Last weekend, Gus and I took a drive to the mountains. When we stop for a rest, we were able to see our city. Suddenly the world looked so peaceful. I joked and said, “So this is God’s point of view huh.” As I said that I was reminded He is not far but living … Read more

This morning I had an idea to paint. I never really painted before but thought why not try. I had some supplies I bought years ago but never used. I also wanted to try time lapsing, so I set up my camera and pointed it towards my work station. As I started painting, it began to … Read more
Blog: It Captured My Attention
At times we walk around wide awake and aware of reality, that we don’t allow ourselves to dream about a world that could be. Once in a while something will capture our attention, causing us to dream in the mist of our busy day. When I was in San Francisco the waitress at Mel’s Diner … Read more
The Pain of the Answer
The answer is what we are looking for. We talk about the question for so long we feel like the answer will never arrive, we even begin to think, “Maybe there isn’t a solution.” Its usually not what we are expecting. When the small voice finally responds, we even say, “Nah..couldn’t be, you are crazy!” … Read more

When I was in Vancouver my friend and I were seeing a movie a day. Not on purpose just because her and I really like films. We came across this small theater in the middle of the city. There weren’t any big movie names playing just abstract posters with strange titles. We looked at them … Read more
