In the House

The Book of H . . . New Beginnings

These are reflections about the use of words and how they impact our lives. When I was in college, I had a very gifted professor who stated that you can say what you want to say in a sentence with the least amount of words and have it make a world of sense. You can feel and understand the meaning without a lot of verbiage. She wrote her exact words on one of my long-winded, many-paged papers: Trop touffutoo dense, too many trees in the forest, too many leaves on the tree, or . . . you get the gist. I could have said and written in sentences of five words or less. Well, I used a few more words than five in a sentence. These are my thoughts and experiences; some, not so original, I suspect, but just as they came through me to share.
