As I watch the CONCACAF Gold Cup, (soccer tournament) I recall the magic of last June.

Sunset Sunday – Miami Baptist Hospital
Last Mother’s Day Sunset Sunday I published prose a daughter wrote for her mother. A tribute. This year, again, I want to share a special moment. This time it’s one of mine.

I tend to find these majestic moments while watching the sunset. In those moments, I take the time to appreciate the day, to listen. Such moments occur for each of […]
