Just a chat

In all honesty, I had a whole post written yesterday that I didn’t finish. This morning I read back the first few sentences and I scratched the whole thing. Now here we are.

Judging a book by its cover

Seeing people online or on tv, it’s like looking at a house. The outside can sometimes be this gorgeous home, and maybe on the inside it is too.

I sit on the edge Dipping my toes in the vast unknown and uncertainty. I hear the waves of doubt as they crash against the sand on the golden shores, My comfort zone. Sometimes my warm, golden shores are clouded by guilt, pain, and harsh words, But the heat of the setting sun warms myContinue reading “Golden shores”
