Keep these soulful moments!
Read more: Keep these soulful moments!I imagine the water of my soul, on certain days, slowly flowing and at peace. There maybe deep longings and memories made of light, still I know moments blazing like bonfires in awe of the sweetness of the dark. Keep this. The past couple of days have not been easy for so many still dealing…

Keep the messy magical start of your dreams!
Read more: Keep the messy magical start of your dreams!At the messy magical start of your dreams, you will be long on ideas and short on time. Somethings will force you to change and change the dreams to save your soul. You will dwell in anything and nothing perfect and terrible. Of all the lives possible to you, the one you will choose is…

Keep all your failures!
Read more: Keep all your failures!Consider yourself lucky if only unheard sounds joined to stop your flow through air. They call it failure, defeat, disappointment, even how your deficiency stopped you short from a priceless victory. What holds, what binds you still isn’t the failure bearing down your broken bones. Rather all of them, the bones, the air, the unheard…

Keep peace!
Read more: Keep peace!There is a certain kind of peace I long for these days. The kind that lets me be. Free, with no demands. No strings attached, no noise, no worries too. Just a life lived well, my way, because peace flowed like a river.

Keep stars!
Read more: Keep stars!When it’s over, we will still say that we were bright like stars. So many things tried to dim our light, but like stars we stood brighter than the clouds on any given day. When it’s over, we don’t want to regret anything. Not the times we worked with people crazier than the skies on…

Keep this love for grant writing!
Read more: Keep this love for grant writing!Today, my team and I submitted three grants. This isn’t a praise post, but more so to encourage myself to keep rising to the things we love. Two of the three grants pushed me over the edge. One in particular, had me so down by the juggler that I would prefer simply to remain down.…

Keep these devotions!
Read more: Keep these devotions!In the midst of another tornado, we spotted a rainbow. The rain was heavy, so was the day. Another tornado. The 4th one in a row. Clearly these days are not playing by the rules. Clearly tornadoes are rewriting the rules. Clearly, we are glad to be alive. Clearly glad to be breathing even if…

Keep planting dreams!
Read more: Keep planting dreams!To be drenched in a stream of flowing smiles, to see the smiles, your own and those of others, and smile letting this life and all it brings flow like ripples at the edge of two rivers, to know that smiles can be used for clarity, for conversations that feel like growth, for connections that…

Keep the WashU LIGHT public health summer camp for children 3-8th grade!
Read more: Keep the WashU LIGHT public health summer camp for children 3-8th grade!If I was to linger for a little while, about a day, I would choose today, choose this very important day, where teachers taught and we listened and children taught and we listened and it’s as if both were necessary, teachers and children teaching, and listening, and perhaps we can have more trustworthy public within…

Keep kindness!
Read more: Keep kindness!Some words of kindness, unmeasured from my heart, are meant to remind you, remind me too, that this life, as measured and as unkind as it may be, still requires all of us to be kind.

Keep these lessons of falling leaves!
Read more: Keep these lessons of falling leaves!Even if leaves descend, even if they descend brittle and frail to the ground below, even if they are swept away by wind or birds, leaving trees and branches empty and alone, at least they fell, they moved down before going up and away, and we are here, forgetting the lessons begin first on the…

Keep walking!
Read more: Keep walking!Lucille Clifton once noted that ‘the surest failure is the unattempted walk.’ It was part of her poem entitled ‘Questions and answers.’ I am keeping this here because I have been walking through a path that feels so difficult that all I can keep doing is walking. So many times I wanted to quit. So…
