Thank you for stopping by!
I'm a born and bred NuYoRican from the Lower East Side now living in the Sunshine State in Miramar, FL. I've worked most of my life in the nonprofit, education and ministry worlds. I'm a mom of two very different boys (Sam and DJ-my special needs angel) and a wife of 30 years to a most fabulously supportive husband, Hiram. I am always seeking to learn and love to share it with anyone who would listen.
What I've learned in life thus far is that life goes on, you should plan in pencil and that we can all be like the Lotus flower-we can rise from the mud and still be beautiful.
I have a passion for many things but my top are anything related to the Church, leadership, biblical justice and women. This site represents those passions in my writing. It's my personal site where I share my heart and my research but mostly where I share about living a life of faith and doing all you can to bounce back and rise up when life hits you hard. I can talk about it because I've done it. A few times over.
My hope is that I can inspire you to rise "like the Lotus" in life, love, leadership and ministry and add beauty to your world.
