Empathy

  • Unconditional Love

    www.instagram.com/tv/CA3H8dzgg1f/ The answer to the question of peace lies within each of us. We are all human. We all have mothers, and sisters, and best friends, and bad hair days. Human. No matter who we are, no matter what we… Continue reading

  • Darling Day 31: Kindness

    Most would consider it an embarrassment, I suppose, the darling life lesson that found me at the supermarket yesterday. But to me, it was a beautifully mysterious lesson, one I will never forget. We’ve all had that moment, I’d imagine.… Continue reading

  • Darling Day 30. War

    Dear sweet love, give me a word. Whisper me back when I drift into the clouds above the sorrow. For the days are long, and the world is at war without seeing or knowing it. But I see. I know.… Continue reading

  • Darling Day 11. Nan

    She was just one of those people everyone loved. Darling, through and through. When she was good, she was like an orange wind, laced with mint and strawberry sweet. She was kind, but not in a: ‘Hi, how are you?’ sort… Continue reading

  • How To Achieve Peace

    I tend to think that the root of all war starts with the individual. More specifically, the constant fights (and wholehearted agreements) we have—umm, with ourselves— about how good or bad, or right or wrong we are in relation to… Continue reading

  • Bread-loaf

    I see, now, that my truth will never be yours. And your truth will never be mine, because we are two seperate grains in the bread-loaf of life. But we are the same in some ways. We are both the… Continue reading

  • Some News and Some Waffling

    Hello, my very bloggy friends. 🙂 How are you all? (We’re good, Brooke. How are you?) Oh, I’m fine, thanks for asking. Ha ha ha. I’m being an idiot— I’ll shut up now. 😛 I’m popping in with the ‘me’… Continue reading
