Daily Prompt
I have old books from my mother’s home. More than I can read, and I hope to donate some to a thrift store for others to read, or perhaps use in collage projects.

morning work
for a few moments

What is your mission?

My mission is hope. I write because I love language, enjoy designing blog posts, and to offer a few moments of beauty, encouragement, and hope.
For thou art my hope, O Lord GOD:
thou art my trust from my youth.
