I write because I have a burning desire to communicate.  I believe the world's inhabitants should realize that the barriers we put between us are imaginary and totally man-made.  If only we could realize we have the ability to speak the same language, we would thrive.  We should all take the time to listen to one another.  To hear one another.


Every human being feels the same emotions the world over . . . has the same drives . . . has the same fears . . . the same needs.  We all yearn to be understood, to be accepted, to be loved, to be heard, to feel appreciated, to feel needed, to feel important.  We all want to be seen as unique, and yet we all also want to be seen as conforming and belonging to a whole.  Writing, for me, is a way to showcase, in metaphorical terms, the human condition at its worst and at its best.  If you are one of my readers, I hope you enjoy the process, and, most importantly, that you receive something from my pages that leaves you changed for the better.
 

 

Thoughts are things, and a small drop of ink, falling like dew upon a thought, produces that which makes thousands, perhaps millions, think.
