I Will not die
This is so beautiful…
I will not die an unlived life I will not live in fear of falling or catching fire I choose to inhabit my days To allow my living to open me To make me less afraid, more accessible. To loosen my heart Until it becomes A wing, a torch, a promise. I choose to risk my significance To live so that which came to me as seed Goes to the next as blossom And that which...

In 2006 the then CEO of MTV said this in an interview;
“we don’t’ advertise to this generation, we own this generation”
That kind of thing get’s me all riled up.
This generation is not for sale!
They are the generation that has words,(Emile Sande- Read All About It) pictures, songs, creativity, inspiration and solutions to not only change a nation but to...

What's Your Story?
This weeks reflection at work was based around the idea of story. The uniqueness of all our stories and reminding ourselves about the story of Christ working in our own individual lives.

I’ve just been thinking a bit more about it and about this phrase “count your blessings”, I think that sometimes we can be consumed with looking for the next blessing, and we can be grateful but when we aren’t experiencing a particular blessed time then the thanking, and specifically...
