• ATasteOfFlava|When Beauty Interrupts Pain

  Some mornings hurt more than others. Today, in the middle of pain, winter weather, and a quiet tower, an eagle showed up outside my window — and reminded me that strength doesn’t always look like flying. Sometimes it looks like standing firm and trusting you’ll be okay.

• ASipOfFlava|🌻 Monday Reflection: The Sweetness of My Sunday

  Yesterday’s stormy Seattle skies reminded me that peace doesn’t come from the weather outside — it comes from the spirit within. Wrapped in my warm blanket, coffee in hand, I found sweetness in the stillness. Today, I’m carrying that Sunday peace into my Monday intention. Maybe you need a little of that too.

  A life was taken on a street I drive every morning, and the news pulled up memories I haven’t visited in years. My reaction wasn’t fear — it was the echo of the work I once did in confidential DV shelters and youth housing. Some experiences never leave you… they just settle deeper into who…
