So, in as far as I am able, I want to be as kind & gentle as I can be... not because I am a weak doormat but because I care deeply & want to show a small measure of the grace I have received in life. ~ Daphne Yvonne Bradshaw

Let's not return to some olden time that is more myth than reality. Let's move forward to a time of respect & acceptance of ALL as worthy of dignity & right treatment. An equality of worth, value, & appreciation, not dependent on outward visible signs of color, size, age, gender, etc. but on inner things like heart, mind, soul, spirit. I am a dreamer. Dream with me please. ~ Daphne Yvonne Bradshaw

Sometimes it seems there is as much sorrow as joy during this time of year. There are loved ones gone until that forever reunion later. So many tears. Some even from remembered joys of long ago. Let's comfort in the joys, the pleasantness, the hopes, the dreams... lest we drown in the tears, esp. those tears that never quite make it to our faces. Please know you are loved. ~ Daphne Yvonne Bradshaw

A full moon shining then eclipsed while meteor showers & snow fall, a blood moon to light the beginning of winter while silence fills the mountain in a hush of awe makes my heart rejoice as I think of loved ones near, far, still here, long gone - all deeply loved, all being sent as much love as I can possibly send with words of peace, love, goodwill, & blessings forever. Come, glad winter. ~ Daphne Yvonne Bradshaw

I hated my body until I realized it was how I heard, saw, tasted, felt, smelt, & experienced life. Without my humble body functioning despite all it goes thru, I would not be here. I could not love, laugh, think, or enjoy all I have so far. So, I am learning to love & bless my body. It's about time. ~ Daphne Yvonne Bradshaw

Empathy & imagination are powerfully revolutionary, of course. Change comes from hearts & minds won by hearing then feeling the stories of others. So, I want to tell stories in every way available to me. Stories to stir spirits. Stories to bring laughter, tears, & that silent witness of knowing that here is another, not an other. ~ Daphne Yvonne Bradshaw

To get to know someone takes a lot of time, observation, & deep listening to all the communications - verbal, nonverbal, silences, presences, absences, more. Even then no one ever can be truly, fully known by another human. We barely know ourselves. But what richness & treasures the journey of knowing! ~ Daphne Yvonne Bradshaw
