"You only are free when you realize you belong no place-you belong everyplace- no place at all. The price is high. The reward is great."

-Maya Angelou

Maya's quote explains where I find myself these days. With a background of teaching and organic study in trauma, mental health, theology, grief, listening, praying, working with the broken and the ones who feel rejection from the church, I find myself belonging nowhere but free to go anywhere. So why not start a blog? Maybe there are people like me that are struggling to find truth in this messy yet wonderful world in which we live.

My calling is to speak love and hope by presenting a message of "you are loved, and you are created for a purpose" to anyone who will listen. I am working to earn the right to be heard by yearning to understand my audience, in order to speak a language that can be received.

Through wholehearted listening, the truth that is inside of each person can rise to the top. Within an engaging conversation, a safe, interactive dialogue, gives opportunity for us to learn more about what is hiding inside of us. This process helps increase self-awareness and reveals purpose. Heart wounds may also arise giving healing power to the process. Wouldn't it be fun to be in community where people are free to be who they are... belonging everywhere, accepted and loved for who they are and what they hold inside?

Let's dream!
