You can create deeper emotional connections in current and future relationships with relatively small changes in how you speak with others. However, before you jump into conversations that result in easier conflict resolution, productive compromise and personal growth, there is one thing you must do and it may be the most emotional filled mental gauntlet you'll ever have to endure. If you can face your worst enemy, you can face anything.

Here on this page is where I will be sharing the poems which I have created through the help of the Holy Spirit. Jesus has helped me create several poems and writings which are faith filled, and expressed with raw emotions regarding trials I’ve faced or am currently facing, and then revealing Gods faithfulness which prevails through the night and day. As His ultimate sovereignty shows, reminding me that my battles are not really mine. They are His. And they always will be. Dear reader, I don’t know what you might be going through, but I can encourage you with this: Jesus paid it all.❤️

Hello. My name is Dr. AY Heath; you can call me Angel. I'm here to chronicle a big goal for myself. And trust me, it is a very big goal. So what is this big goal. I’m going to read and break down 150 film scripts. That does sound like a lot, but it’s something I’ve wanted to do for a while and, after stepping away from my corporate job, I dove into film school and have been diving deep into the process of storytelling. But I want to do more than just learn technical skills; I want to understand what works and doesn't and see where we're in this big filmmaking industry.

Read more from What A Mess (News and Opinion)Let's get one thing straight: Russia invaded Ukraine on February 24, 2022. This is not up for debate.

"No, it is Kit-Ty," Harold corrected, shaking his head. "She says it wrong. She is still a baby," Elise said gently. "Meow, meow… meowww," Nadine mimicked the family cat, her tiny frame wiggling like a kitten in play. Eli dropped to his hands and knees beside her. "Meowww!" he exaggerated, scrunching his nose and wiggling his fingers like whiskers. "Ugh, this is ridiculous," Harold groaned.

It wasn’t time. Not yet."
