What does time alone do for you?

I just crave it. It's always been a healing, creative time for me. I came across some words in Sue Monk Kidd's book, "The Secret Life of Bees," that express my feelings about this so well- I wanted to share them with you.

We’ve watched him perch in the trees right outside our windows and we can see him watching us as well. At times, he will even come and sit right on the railing that leads around our deck,...

Any Sue Monk Kidd fans out there?

Yesterday, I finished re-reading her book, “The Mermaid Chair.’ I absolutely love her writing—it is stunningly visual, emotionally engaging and very personal.
