Step to the railing.
Breathe.
The valley exhales golden light.
The river writes its name in silver.
Below us: the world as it was.
Above us: a hum in the circuitry of stars.
Before us: wings.
Not the small, frantic kind —
but storytellers with sunlit armor,
compound eyes that have seen a thousand dawns
and chose to bring one here.
Hold on.
The observation deck is live.
The stories are just beginning.
And they’ve brought you a seat with wings.

Born Blessed in South Korea in 1969 and raised in Baltimore, I’ve built a career with 20 years in customer service and 10 years in behavioral health. The crowning jewel of my studies came when I earned the only passing grade of an A from a Harvard professor — a true master of the craft of Shakespeare
And the English language, whose guidance opened the gateway to worlds of imagination, discipline, and wonder.
Married for 25 years, I share the good life with two dogs (Isabella and Juliet) and one cat named Maddie. In my free time, I enjoy writing, biking, gospel music, and spending time with my pastor and friends.
