My guest today has been here before and I am so very happy to have her back again this month. I met Sarah Fader about a month ago when she asked me to write for a non-profit she runs called Stigma Fighters. Since then, I have been following her progress with this mental health organization…
Sorry this took me so long Jenny. Thank you for writing with me! Written by Jenny Katherine Luu and Hastywords Her slippers weren’t made of glass They were faded with stringy holes Her dresses were made and simply sewn From the remnants of old flour sacks With much love and motherly care Two things her…
This post was written not as a duet but in contribution to my compassion series. Since I am short on days this month he graciously agreed to share his post today along with my duets. Thorn blogs of his affair and of his heartache. Relationships are hard and it would be easy to judge someone…
