Each year between Samhain (The Celtic New Year) and New Year's Eve, I make a list of goals for the next year. I think of it has my trial period between the old and new year. A time of reflection. The list is mix of practical and intangible items. No matter how I craft the …

A Heart At Half-Mast
In 1994, I was a scared, shy and wholly naive girl when I entered VA Tech as a freshman. My parents dropped me off and then quickly departed to make the five hour journey home. My years wandering through the castle like buildings would be spend learning more than just academics. I grew into a …
The Cosmic 2×4
Everything happens for a reason. It may sound dreamy or idealistic, but the older I get the stronger my faith in that concepts becomes. The universe just doesn’t always tell you the reason, which is highly annoying. Then there are times like this afternoon when things line up right, but still leaving you wondering. At …
Lies…

Day Five of Gratitude: Truth
Truth, Sekhar reflected, is like the sun. I suppose no human being can ever look it straight in the face without blinking or being dazed. - Like the Sun by R.K. Narayan It can hurt. It can heal and can never completely be concealed.- Lucinda Rose As idealistic as this may sound, I truly believe that …
Day Four of Gratitude: Books
Heaven for me at times is being surrounded by books. The knowledge contained in them is not power, but empowerment. In school, I was never popular; always too shy to be out there making friends and memories. The most daring thing I did in those days was go into D.C. one night. There was a …
