Sister By My Side
Eureka Moments
Sister by my Side,
Chasing wild fireflies
incandescence
at its best
Backyard joyous noise comes alive
as the day is put to rest.
Local fauna praising the Lord's sky
with a cadence of psalms.
Families thanking God for their
summery sustenance
with grateful palms.
Beams of fireworks ignite a horizon
delirious with dreams
dancing into summer-lit streams
teeming with resilient hope.
Remembering these Eureka moments
mitigates the grief
of losing you.
Helping me to cope
with the eerie fact of
no longer having my sister by my side.
Holding on with God as my Guide,
Your Baby Sister

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.
