The 24th anniversary of the passing of my late fiance from cancer is coming. I have been thinking about her and the times we had together. So I thought I would share the poem I wrote for her on the night, I proposed to her.

Starting Jul 3rd, I will be working full time as a Direct Support Professional. The fun part will be balancing school in Aug with work. I meet the guys that I am going to be working with and they seem to be a fun loving group.

It has been a hard year as this year, my former college class celebrates it's 20th anniversary,...

Driving to school, this morning and watching the sky as the sun rose gave me warm sense of hope. I was taught since I was a child that rainbows are a sign of a promise from God. This morning (6:30 am EST) I noticed that as the sun was rising that the sky started off red, then faded to orange, with a brief touch of...

Some would say that darkness is evil, filled with only the most vile creatures of the night. But without darkness, there would be no light. As with light there would be no darkness. The truth is that ... even in the deepest and thickest darkness there is light. Light that guides and heals within the Darkness. For it is within darkness that we can only...
