Can you see through the storm?
Let's take a little journey and see if we can see through to the other side together?

Escape for a few minutes…
Grab a cup of tea, your favorite coffee or a glass of wine...and settle into your favorite place, that chair in the corner with a blanket and just listen to a little story (in poem fashion). A little escape. An escape for a moment to breathe, let go, and drift into a story. Listen now ...
