If we stop and listen to our hearts, they will lead us.
If we do not take the time to listen, we could lose our direction.
An eye for an eye is not the road to peace.
Forgiving and letting go will let us move forward,
and bring us closer to a finish line rather than
an endless loop of angry repetition.
God does have hands. We might not always see them.
If we listen carefully, we might hear the rustle of the wind.
His hands are large. He sees a bigger picture that we cannot see.
He might not always answer our prayers in the way we want.
What we want is not always what we need.
My name is Katherine J. Krein. I lost my father in June of 2013, and then I lost my mother in November of the same year. After they both died I went through a mind-warping number obsession that has taken me years to control. This is my story. It is now 2025. I still use this site to post some poems and thoughts. My obsession has faded, however, I still notice the numbers. Faith, hope, and love is what guides me now.
