A Letter to the Misfits
Dear Lonely One, I see you. Holding yourself together in the corner in back of the Church, frantically rocking your babies in the front row, sitting at home because it hurt too much last time.

There’s this joy and peace in the quiet, still morning feeling, but the grief that yesterday came to what it... Continue Reading →
