Dear Claus, You probably don’t remember me. A little over four years ago, our paths crossed ever so briefly. Yet, the memory of you still lingers in the back of my mind every now and then. I know, it sounds corny, but it is true. That day, I was up with the sun, and…… Continue reading Dear Claus…
Sharon pretended to walk down to her mailbox. For the sixth time, that day. She knew all too well that she wouldn’t find anything more than a couple of untamed dust bunnies, and an old take out menu she had never cared to throw to the trash. What she did know, though, was that…… Continue reading The Block…
Damn, if she had known the weather would be so hot, she would have postponed the trip a bit. Holding to her bottle of water, she wondered if she should ration herself. It was going to be a long ride… to say the least. It’s such a lovely day, wouldn’t you say? We’ve…… Continue reading Train ride… – FFFC
”I am sorry for him, who cannot hear what the tall trees have to say.” Edgar A. Guest I love it when nature puts me back in my place. As humans, I believe we tend to think that we are the shit, sitting at the top of the food chain. Silly us. Discovering…… Continue reading Meeting the giants…
Some of you Lovelies might remember the intense friendship I shared with a man almost twice my age, two years ago.

To say that he had doubts about this strange encounter would have been an understatement… This was plain weird, to begin with. He didn’t believe in any of that new age stuff. But what did he have to lose? He hadn’t slept a single night through since it had happened. The pain and the…… Continue reading She Empathy…
This Which Way challenge is all about capturing the roads, walks, trails, rails, steps, signs, etc. we move from one place to another on. You can walk on them, climb them, drive them, ride on them, as long as the specific way is visible. Any angle of a bridge is acceptable as are any…… Continue reading Which Way Challenge – June 20th
Can I pet your dog? The clear voice of the little girl caught my ear right away. I love this innocent way children have of approaching strangers with oblivious confidence. Not aware yet of the fear of others they will slowly but surely develop, as years will go by. How polite! I thought, knowing that…… Continue reading Strangers…
It all started with a an unexpected spark… As if our bodies were rocks, thrown randomly in the universe, not even aware of each other. Two anonymous stones, running in the cold darkness of routine, blinder than if our eyes had been ripped out of their orbits. And in that brief moment, when our…… Continue reading Unexpected…
