We are the hidden treasure of this muddy world.

You are our heart. Continue reading “O Heart, What Are You Waiting For? (8/21/16)”

A way entirely opposite of others.
Even their ostentations, their lies are better than other’s truths, kindnesses and favors. Continue reading “Look at This Bright Soul (6/26/16)”
Some people tell stories about the Beyond.
Some expect help from the Beyond.
