Renewal

As I sit here on Easter morning, I can't help but feel blessed. I have made more than my share of mistakes, and have not always been careful of the feelings of those around me. I've been frustrated and angry and lonely and scared. But I've also shown kindness, given support and tried to do my very best. But whatever I've done or haven't done, I know that the only thing that matters is that God's grace uses all things for good. On this blessed Easter morning I am made new and I will step forward boldly to share light and love in any way I can!

An ageless tale

"[Romeo and Juliet]...is all about rules that we set for ourselves as well as others. Breaking those rules makes you an outsider. But once you've tasted that fruit - that freedom - even death is infinitely preferable to being stuck in the ritual of an ordinary life."

Dale Gutzman, Off the Wall Theater
