Why I Say “I Love You” A Lot — Reluctant Xtian
I see the world very much like “The Reluctant Xtian” does. I, too, have buried many people. Have my son who I adore. My wife, my parents, dear friends….I, too, want the communication of “I love you” to be the last thing I say, or hear. So, give this a read. It’s an important call to action, call to life.

On the edge of dreams
I can see your eyes, briefly
Sadly, time’s mists win
A Poetry Challenge To Myself
“Broken Dreams” by andziadesign
Every so often, I like to challenge myself with my poetry. Today I logged into Bing Images, grabbed the first one, and crafted the haiku below.
A heart bursting forth
Anguish is encompassing
This near winter night
This Autumn Day
Love this autumn day
Which has crested into night
Now rest, finally
