In deflated applause they sit there
one atop the other, in stillness and askew
for without their Master within them
they are nothing more than empty vessels of hollowed cold

We're always headed somewhere...living is constant motion toward a destination. This blog is an eclectic collection of writings...some of which are just creative pieces and some of which capture my on-going journey of discovery, struggle, surrender and joy. I'm learning to surrender and let God navigate the way, while He faithfully reveals that my true identity lies within Him.
Deflated applause is an intriguing mental image .. I like this.
