Today I learned something new, and a little surprised I did not know this story or Doris. I believe reminiscent and/or reverent about many moms out there – Please watch: “How unacceptable. We have to go to work.” I love how she nods and shakes her head subtly and yet almost to say, “This […]

Hold my Hand
Last year two phenomenal young women visited our class. Two Dreamers, DACA recipients. Who are the Dreamers? Children of immigrants brought to America as children, “While their parents either came to the U.S. unlawfully or overstayed their visas, these kids usually had no choice but to come with their parents.” – Worldrelief.org DACA – is […]
Pages
Pages. I need to be writing pages. My professor said to keep writing and then he said, “Write pages.” He asked how long I had been writing and I said for a while. It’s hard to pin it down. I told him I write a blog, as I know many people do. It’s practice. He […]
The entanglement of details
I come across so many wonderful stories that I am compelled to write all about them, all of them, but I can’t. It is just too much. What I can do is update my reading list on this blog; I think it would be an efficient way of doing so. It will be an evolutionary […]
No one way
I have been reading a lot. I am trying to get my head around the literature I am reading for my final project in school. I have time yet – but time goes by fast, slow, and then fast again and I don’t want that anxiety feeling. I had a meeting with my professor during […]
We work better together
I want to focus for a minute. I have been reading a lot and gathering but don’t know how to put it into words yet. Daily I have been trying to pull my mind together and do some serious deep breathing. People are suffering; the country is suffering. I read yesterday that 32% of households […]

Sitting, watching, clouds crush, spring open, dashing rain beads fall from overhead. Fast like light. Their image breaks open once the sunlight hits – Waves of pink, blue, purple all a glow. They dance, burst, take to the streets. The two; the two squint, meet, eyes – open arms out, like a dream not yet. […]
You
Do you hear the swoon of people cheering you on? I do. We have been working for hours and years and finally, gratitude for all of it is showing face. We are here. Who the hell knew we would be here? And for CFers, we are slowly looking like normal people, with color in our […]
Break time

Two sweet souls
I came home today after work, after driving through rain pouring into the streets, watching the rain beads stomping their feet. I had to pull over as I couldn’t barely see. I watched the massive pools of water form and heard the smack of hale hit my car and bounce on the street. I did […]
