This project is my contribution to an alternate narrative to the messages of hate, intolerance, and cruelty that dominate our media environment. More than just a simple blog, it's a growing community of caring people dedicated to transformative change.
Transformative mindful journaling prompts & international journaling community + personal essays, creativity, identity, grief and life from a heart-centered Expressive Writing Facilitator, Writer, Creative Arts Therapist/Drama Therapist & Singer- NYC.
The changing lens through which I view the world with a bit more detail while gingerly navigating middle age. Come for the essays, and stay for the pithy, yet occasionally circuitous observations of the world surrounding us all.
I am a former foreign and war correspondent offering news, comment and analysis, and field reports. I aim to be fair and incisive, not polemical. My main focus is Ukraine & Russia, the Middle East, and eastern Europe.
