What Do Women Desire Most?

“Some men say we desire to be beautiful and that we want to consort with diverse strange men; also we love lust in bed and often wish to wed.  Thus men misunderstand women.  Another idea they have is that we want to be seen as young and fresh, not old, and that women can be…

Evergreen

There is an icy crust on the trees today. Silence is offering its hushed presence with an invitation to be still and listen. Although we welcomed the return of the sun a few days ago, we are still wrapped up within the cold darkness of the long night’s reign. We will be here for some…

Standing before the mouth of a cave, I can feel my body awaken. There is an intermingling of known and unknown that stirs the primal force within me. It calls out, asking me to step forward onto a path that has not been traveled by many. To decide to take the slow and steady decent is a decision that only I can make. Once the decision is made, I must trust each footstep upon the path that leads me to our collective primordial birthplace
