Sobre IBD

 Slowly, I Grow is the culmination of three years of thoughts, ideas, and emotions. Love, Beauty, Grief, Solace, Prayer, Healing, Awe, Anger, Anxiety, Despair, Depression, Hope, and Faith are all words that could be used to describe the mood of these poems. Questions about myself, the world, or why bad things happen to good people, were frequently asked, as I explored different ways to convey my feelings or thoughts. These moments of reflection often took place in nature as I find refuge in its beauty and its ability to allow my mind to find its spiritual roots. I hope you will find my journey reflects your journey at some point in your life, and you will come back to your favorites whenever you feel a reason to do so. I believe we share much more in common than we think.
