I once heard someone say that prayer is more than words. It's a stance you take, a position you claim. You throw your body against the door to keep the demons from advancing and stay put until they go away.

Everything can change in the blink of an eye. But don't worry; God never blinks.

A book store is a treasure chest. Every time you walk in one, you strike gold.

Whatever doesn't kill you really does make you stronger.

When I was 41, I found a lump the size of a grape in my right breast. I ended up bald, sick and exhausted from surgeries, chemo and radiation treatments. Ah, but I got to live.

You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.

Cry with someone. It's more healing than crying alone.
