A collection of meditative essays from the author's website.
With a blend of humor, reflection and seriousness, author Hugh Harris mines the field of digital posts from his blog site, Hugh's Wordquilts. Some writings are built around fictional characters from his Dinkel Island Series of Christian fiction novels. Others reflect on lifespan journeys, seasonal thoughts, and perspectives about daily life. Readers are invited to "tag along" with the author, exploring their own perspectives.
