I began my first blog about seven years ago, but for privacy reasons, had to shut it down.  I have decided today to begin this one.

I feel a duty to write and it has compelled me to put away my shyness, fear and whatever else is holding me back and to begin talking.  I think best by writing, so this may not be helpful to anyone else except for me.

I may speak about abuse in the church; I may speak about my love of books and decorating and a simple, minimalistic life.
