Daughters and sons, our joy
is what the enemy is after.
It’s much too valuable to be sold.
This is how we get the last laughter…
Guard joy like a soldier shielding its king
and a honey bee protecting its sting.
It’s more precious than any gold.
**Author’s note: We are powerful and at peace when we protect our joy. Some of us guard our money, assets, and other things that are valuable to us. However, our joy is what really matters. If we do not have joy, then we do not have anything at all.
Until I write again…

Building A Better Tomorrow
In the field which I work in, I have learned many things, and of those things, I would most certainly say that the most valuable tool I have in my arsenal, which has the greatest capability of helping to not just bridge the gaps, that exist when communication barriers are present, it allows for the true establishment of authentic connection, this tool is none other than Compassion. I take time each and every morning, to reflect on the experiences I have had, and when I began doing this initially, I had much more than yesterday to reflect on, I had years of trauma which had been left in the darkness, having had no light truly shed upon them for a substantial duration of time. When something happens to us, of either a smaller less significant impact, or something of a greater, more significant impact, we must always ensure that we take the time to analyze, and process these events, regardless of how big or little they may be.
