Some of the things I do will have negative consequences. My choice is not to live in my head repeating my mistakes over and over again.
I have values and goals which I work at on a regular basis, and hopefully they will speak for themselves. I love African American history and want our stories to be told.
I champion justice for all who are oppressed. I try to value the diverse people who inhabit the planet. I hope to impact the world in a positive way. Encourage faith in God who gives us all purpose. I want my life to be about these things.

I believe in Jesus. He is why I am. Although I have concerns about my legacy, the ultimate decider of that is the Son of God.
My legacy of faith is that I trust God. What I have learned is that even though I make plans, His plans always beat mine because He makes His plans knowing the future. He has always had better plans for me than I have for myself. He has shown me this over and over again.
I love Him because He first loved me. He taught me what love was. He showed me what love was. He is teaching me to love like Him.
He has made me His forever pupil. I never arrive. There is always so much more to learn. I am good with that.
My faith will be trust, love and continuing to learn.

I believe that God is good. I know He has a purpose for me because the Bible told me so. I am going to make sure I walk in that purpose. I spend time in prayer and bible study to make sure I am aligned to His purpose. I have found His purpose for me is always bigger than anything I have ever come up with.
Dancing During the Storm is a collection of stories from projects that I have written over the years. They represent a desire to praise God despite the storms in my life. As the saying goes, you are going into a storm, in the middle of a storm or coming out of a storm. All of these stories tell of people who enjoy the life that God has given them and live it to the fullest. Each character has a storm in their life which they are going into, in the midst of, or coming out of.
The first story is about the first man to ever encounter a storm and the impact on his life.
The second story is about a court case that changed the lives of three of the women involved. A Victim. A Juror. A Judge. The impact of the trial changed their thinking, yet prepared them for all that life threw at them.
The third and fourth story is a science fiction tale of the journey of a young woman who searched for peace and quiet after spending the last two years on a planet that had to resemble hell. As she emerged from the storms of her life, she saw that things were not as easy as she thought they would be.
The fifth story is another science fiction story that showed a divided world on the brink of war and two women meet to decide the fate of all the women on the planet. This meeting determined if it would either draw everyone together or increase the divide. Would it be treason or slavery?
The sixth story two bullets changed the life of a man who had cruised through life on the back of rich parents and affluence. Enjoy these fun, thought provoking stories, and hear the underlying intent.
