Using the Beatitudes, Chip Dodd describes the eight movements we all must make if we are to live in freedom, fidelity, fullness, and faithfulness.

This collection of poetry focuses on time and its effects. The forgotten and the overlooked is explored, as is one's place in time and the larger world. Various places, people, and times are remembered and described in evocative detail.

Enjoy this tribute to all of our memories.
