#blogExodus: Free
Free of hairbrushes
Free of pony tails
Free of braids
Free of a veil behind which I can hide....

#blogexodus 2: Tell
We tell our stories.
That's what we do.
It's who we are.
It's why we exist.
It's as near as breathing.
People ask how we can share our lives.
I say....how could we not.
We tell our stories.
It was Elie Wiesel who said:
God created humans because God loves stories.

Believe #blogExodus
Feel free to grab this graphic |
I believe that when you cry with others, the tears flow together to soothe the hurt.
I believe that I can't stand alone.
I believe that a hand held tightly can be a lifeline.
I believe that I will always find others to stand with me, even in the depths of my aloneness and pain.
I believe that the sun will rise and set, that time will move forward, that love will sustain us.
I believe that the only way the Exodus could ever have happened at all was because no one crawled into the hole of their pain and grief and despair at their life of slavery....but instead they held hands, they prayed, they sang and they lifted each other up out of the depths of that gaping hole....and they did something. Together.
