Bio
Dealing with mental health problems has been hard. I've lived my whole life believing that no one understood me. I realized, my mind is not for others to understand; but for my edification of self awareness. So, I write to understand me.

Little Lady
The Artist This one is a special one; an artist that may come to shock you. For she is the one called “Little Lady” and she prays for everyone, including you. She has an old soul. She knows that she is beautiful inside and out. She knows this because God makes no mistakes, no matter how tall or stout. God didn’t create her perfect for them. He created her perfect for, him. It is her imperfections that make her perfect. From which she knows she could not defect. She has such a tender heart, and she wears it on her sleeve. So nurturing and also very caring. She’s before her time, at least that is what they say. For she is but a child, as she turns seven today. Her mother cleans in preparation of Little Lady’s birthday bash. And there it was, a note underneath her teddy bear Ash.

Cursed
It was a moonless night when the fortune teller arrived in the small coastal town of Seabrook. She was an enigmatic woman, her face obscured by a wide-brimmed hat and her body draped in a flowing cloak. As she stepped off the train, she clutched a small seashell in her hand, her fingers tracing the intricate patterns etched into its surface.

Total Eclipse of The Sun
"And if you go before I, how will I find you?" An older man asks. His wife's reply was anything but simple. "If I shall go before you, I will light your path. If you follow that path you will find me." The old man replies, "And if it's years later?" she says "I will continue to light your path until you are ready." The old man sat on his porch facing the east every morning and the west every evening. Then, one day he got up. His daughter asked, "Where are you going dad?" he replied, "To the moon."

Faith ~ What Is in A Rose

One night, Jennifer was brutally attacked. Completely shattered, Jennifer could only think of church. She pleaded to Jesus "Lord, prove that I follow a faith that is true!" A white rose fell into her hands. Then a tear drop fell from the face of Jesus. When his tear hit the white rose, the rose turned red. A closer look inside what looked white petals, were communal offerings of the "Body of Christ."
