Corner of Fair and Hoo Hoo
I found myself at the corner of Fair and Hoo Hoo, last week. I had been to the north side, before, the north side in Lufkin, Texas. It has a reputation that precedes it. I knew when I moved back to Texas, more than two years ago, that houses in this town could still be … Continue reading

Until the last few years, I have written with pen and paper. Ask yourself what the most natural thing is .. allow it to be part … Continue reading
I Want Real Love and Nothing of Its Imitation
I read a quote online, today, and this was it: To the people who love you, you are beautiful already. This is not because they’re blind to your shortcomings but because they so clearly see your soul.

I’m Surrounded by Love
Inspiration keeps escaping me, for one reason or another. I’ll begin by saying I’ve been a bit under the weather, lately. It might be allergies, it might be the time of year, it might be that I need a break. Whatever the reason, I’m trying to take a break because I believe the body knows … Continue reading
Create It from the Inside Out
I am painting, again, after taking two months away. The two months went by rather fast and, sometime into it, I began to consider that maybe my painting days were behind me. There are times when we take a break from things in life. It can be good for us and, I believe, most of … Continue reading
