Okay Detroit.
Let's take a moment to soften and open to grace.

Driving south on Woodward today, I used the new 8 mile bridge.
Now let me say, I've never been a fan of the 8 mile bridge. I've always thought of it as a separator more than a connector-if you catch me.
The bridge was recently redone and I admit, I was wrong.
It's beautiful.
It's clean-still more than 2 months into the re-do.
It's elegant with cool retro lighting and vintage looking black and white photos of olds cars in traffic.
It not only connects Detroiters to eachother-it connects us to our history (and HER-story! )
When your arch over the apex-the skyline of Detroit is revealed.
Wow.
And people golfing at Palmer Park.
And a lady getting a donut from a mom and pop shop that's ancient.
And a vegitarian cafe/healing center.
This is a beautiful town.
Peace,

Detroit! Do you know why you rock?
Two words.
Coney Island.
Not just any coney, mind you. But, a coney where I can get spinich pie, green beans in red sauce and baklava 24-7.
Man-I know New York and LA are cool, but...
Please!
Are you kidding me?
No one comes close.
Detroit.
Yummmmmmmmm.
Peace,

My grandpa is a very wise and faithful man. He says when things are tough on you, it's best to pray for someone else.
So...
God, come and comfort those who lost loved ones on 9.11.
Bring them peace. Stand beside them and fill the empty spots left behind.
Heal our nation, Lord.
Guide our president and all leaders.
May your deep peace prevail on earth.
Thank you in advance for your miracles.
Amen.

Sometimes it's best to go ahead and state the obvious:


Dally in the Alley.


Don't know about the Dally?




Man, is it good to be from Detroit!

The children that went back to school are having their very first official weekend of the school year.
Thus they are learning the balance of hard work and relaxation.
What better place to dance that line than right here at home in...
Detroit.

Right now the houses on your block are selling to great neighbors.

Right now your neighbors are becomming great neighbors.

Right now-

So

Are

You.

Right now people who we thinking of downsizing are changing their minds.

Right now the spirit is moving on and through the streets of Detroit.

Right now you are safe.

Right now you are provided for.

In fact, you are abundantly provided for.

Right now you are healing.

Right now you are not believing the hype.

Right now you are STRONG.

Right now you are Detroit.

Peace,
Shannyn
