About this Blog

My journaling is kind of a walk through my mind while searching for joy through self-expression. Though it was never my original intent, my concern quite naturally turned from the idea of me "feeling good" to the idea of you "feeling good."

Check out my websites, www.sculptingtheheart.com. I thank you for your comments to insure my own growth as a writer and artist.
