A home is a haven of hearts- a place where loved ones are cherished and sent out, and a place to which they can always return. Sequel to 'That Old House'.
Grief and change are parts of life- like the moon- like the tide. Like love.
Truly fearless people are scarce. Those without fears rarely become heroes. It is, after all, our fears that make us courageous.
An old house sits at the end of a lane. Abandoned and forgotten, no one would have guessed who was going to buy it... or how full a life that old house was yet to live.

You've spent so much time missing the thing that filled that hole that you've forgotten the precious things that can come out of departures. And after that space is filled, you realize you miss the empty space. Sequel to 'Finding Hope in the Unfinished'.
Empty spaces can give you hope. The sequel to 'Filling in the Silence'.
Words can be robotic, tender... or unspoken. But it is when they are compared that they become the most important. A sequel to 'Defining the Dots'.
