Yielding To Love; The Battle Within

 Of dreaded fear, I desperately struggle in trusting my timid heart not to betray, when asked to have faith in the greatest of joys, that is love. For you must have faith to trust that your heart will recognize it’s true soulmate, even amidst the chaos, and not wander aimlessly in the dark forest of […]

Constantine and the Priests

This story is old, yet few know the tale, of the divinity of Christ and the day it began. Read to the end and surprised you may be for few know the way in which it all came to be. **************************************************************** The Emperor heard stories, of a prophet long gone, his followers still present, and their […]

Choice; It’s a Real Mixed Bag.

Look at your feet. Make a quick mental note of where you are at this minute. Where you are, didn’t happen by accident, your choices led you there. We make left and right turns all day long, we go, stop whatever. Yet somehow, you made it to your present spot. It is a miracle that […]

Is the price of an opinion too high?

When someone offers an opinion, they are essentially “putting in their two-cents”. If someone wants to know what you think, they might say “a penny for your thoughts”. These idiomatic expressions both suggest that the value of an opinion isn’t worth much monetarily.  I believe that the value is even less if that opinion is […]

The Dilemma of the Modern Family

The word “family” is defined by Google as “a group consisting of parents and children living together in the same household”.  That broad definition seems appropriately vague, considering the modern family dynamic of today.  So, which is “better”; two adults who create “biological” children, raising them together in a genetically matched family or a mish-mash of DNA brought together by two […]
