Journey With ME

Reflections on Acceptance and Belonging


Welcome

This blog is a place of reflection and compassion. There is much division and hatred in our world. I have known no better tool for combatting adversity than writing. I have created this space for growing the kind of community and world that I desire for myself, my family, my friends, and even my adversaries.

For as long as I can remember, I have written. Writing was how I experienced the world, expressed my feelings, and managed my emotions. Writing was my world. It was how I lived, and it kept me alive.

But I kept those writings in private and well-protected spaces. At times, I cautiously shared my reflections with a few close family members and friends. Who else would bear my typos and run-on sentences? It’s taken many years for me to arrive here. Here is the place where you and I meet.

This is a space of belonging. Whether you are here for 30 seconds, 30 minutes…or longer…enjoy these moments.

You. Belong. Here.

Welcome.
