MAD THINGS
Sometimes we do mad things. Not because we are reckless. But because we have learned to trust ourselves.
AHEAD OF OURSELVES
There will be a time to meet what is coming.
And when it does, I will not be unprepared.
CALL TO GRACE
Grace is not only a pardon but a supernatural refusal to let difficulty have the final say.
THE SACRIFICE OF TEARS
This is where something shifts. Not in what you believe. But in how near you are willing to be.
THE COMPANION
Memory is not something we go back to. It is something that comes forward to meet us.
UNNECESSARY THINGS
Life has a way of removing the things we once believed we could not live without.
THE COLOR OF OPPOSITES
The same color that signals danger is the color that keeps us alive.
TRACING TUMORS
The fastest way to lose what you have is to fixate on what you’ve left behind.
SURRENDERED MOMENTS
When life gets reduced like this, I start to wonder: have I misunderstood what accomplishment really is?
NO EVIDENCE
What troubled me was not the absence of evidence.
It was how quickly I handed it authority it never claimed.
THE REWIRE
The unknown is not something to brace against but a place you expect to be changed by.
