In times of change, learners inherit the earth, while the learned find themselves beautifully equipped to deal with a world that no longer exists.Eric Hoffer It’s raining today. A sad, gray day where the rain comes and goes as it pleases. When I was a young girl, I […]
At around 3am this morning several rounds of thunder broke through my dream state. It was heavy and ominous sounding. I can’t remember whether I was having a good dream or not. What I did realize was that of course there was thunder. It was officially my birthday. […]
I am going to admit something outright. I wrote the title of this post at around 1am. I have no idea what I was referring to or what thoughts I had planned to pen. I get it, though. There was supposed to be a big storm and it […]
