I want to follow up with expounding on something from yesterday’s post, especially since I know I probably won’t write for a while with the holidays coming. As I have written before, I’ve faced many hardships in life, most of which were tragic, unexpected, and left me coping, alone, in a wake of undue trauma. That’s just my story. I didn’t write it. However, I have the capability of either playing the Leading Lady or taking a back seat like the Best Friend in this tale of Life. I think I ...

That's our problem with G-d: we don't want to have our own lives predetermined, pre-defined for us. We want to find meaning within ourselves. However, if the Scriptures are true, then we cannot find meaning apart from ...
What’s on my Shelf: Air Awakens Series
Air Awakens, the Complete Series by Elise Kova Where do I begin? Do I begin with the dazzlingly, gripping plot that never lets you go, taking you on an adventure through the lands of the Solaris Empire?
