Inspiration comes in fits and spurts, laced with time, warmed with the heart. Each of my offerings began with a whisper, a pause to see, hear, and reflect.

Relatives
Power and freedom are cousins.
Too much of each destroys.
Storyteller
Imagine and create
Give me two lines of who you are
Resilience
The cactus waits dormant until
Water and sun synchronize to bloom
Home is One’s Embrace
The character of a house reflects the individual.
Invisible infrastructure
Humanity
There is no greater kindness than to make someone comfortable.

About Abbe
Abbe Rolnick grew up in the suburbs of Baltimore, Maryland. Her first major cultural jolt occurred at age 15 when her family moved to Miami Beach, Florida. To find perspective, she climbed the only non-palm tree at her condo complex and wrote what she observed. History came alive with her exposure to Cuban culture. After attending Boston University, she lived in Puerto Rico, where she owned a bookstore. Once Stateside, she capitalized on the knowledge she gained as an independent bookstore owner and worked for one of the finest bookstores, Village Books, in Bellingham, Washington. Once a CEO of a manufacturing firm and owner of a healthy foods café, she is now retired and spends her time writing.
