Insightfully Naked
– The Blog –
Intellectual wordsmith.
Disciple of truth.
Making love to the mind, with wisdom and insight, using words to seduce the senses. Soul Notes and Sacred Musings from the messy mind of a Christian Mystic. The insight is deep, wise, experiential and naked. It’s pure. Raw. Rooted in authenticity. Vulnerably honest and real. No hiding. No masking. Truth of self. Fully seen. Insightfully, nakedly…Me.
My soul is moved by the harmonic melodies, enticing every atom to join in, rocking and swaying to the most transcendent rhythm of the universe…the heartbeat of God.
