Give me a quiet life.

One where I can hear

the trees rustling in the wind,

raindrops on the window,

pages of a book being turned,

coffee being brewed,

and the heartbeats of the ones I love.

~Shelby Dersa

and the simple pleasures continue to reveal…

inquiry for today~ finding the next right thing…

it’s ok to believe in love…

The kind of beauty I want most

is the hard-to-get kind that comes from within.
