It's only words, and words are all I have to take your heart away - Bee Gee's
For years, I have served as a helpful role to those seeking inspiration, help, or advice. In 2000, I finally decided to own that role and be intentional about it. I started writing about my passions, my thoughts, and curious wonderings about our society. I founded How many birds in cages die? with a mission to give others a taste of what goes on in my mind, and it has been a wild success ever since.
Welcome to How many birds in cages die?
How many birds in cages die, thinking the ceiling is the sky?
This book, when I am dead, will be
a little faint perfume of me.
People who knew me well will say,
She really used to think that way."
Edna St. Vincent Millay, Collected Poems
About The Blog
How many birds in cages die, thinking the ceiling is the sky?
This quote from an unknown author has inspired me for years to envision the possibilities of life and to go beyond what can be conceived as ceilings or constraints. In other, simpler words, to be brave.
This blog is about life, hope, friendship, love, loss, defeat and redemption, taking chances and reflections on what really matters...and what does not.
It is comprised of words through poetry, music, literature, vignettes and life experiences and lessons. There will also be a great emphasis on interaction.
This blog is about believing that ceilings...really ARE only skies.
