This is a collection of links to a variety of websites. Some have nothing to do with graphic design, but are topics that have been of interest to me and may be to you as well. Besides my love of design, I have had an incredible journey in faith and health. Each of us have our own path in life, and the tapestry of our journeys often have similar threads. Take what you like, and leave the rest 🙂

Note: Healed by His Love is a personal website of mine that I created shortly after my conversion to Catholicism. I was inspired by so many Catholic prayers and novenas and wanted them to be accessible wherever I went. The name was inspired by a Type as Image Artwork that I created in December 2017. https://www.sdleo.com/healed-by-his-love/
The site grew over time and has gone through some renovation. Besides the prayers, I have a blog with stories, my own testimony of my faith journey, and my mass journal project that I began years ago inspired by a talk given by Matthew Kelly. I also have posted links to organizations that I have been a part of or want to promote to others.
Eating, Breathing, Living
People perish from lack of knowledge. [Hosea 4;6]
Disclaimer: Any articles, websites, posting with respect to health and nutrition are the personal discoveries of the author of this website and do not constitute medical advice. Always do research for yourself. As Americans in our big national melting pot of DNA, each of us have unique genes inherited from our ancestors, whether you come from Northern European Ancestry, South American, African, Middle Eastern, or Asia Pacific Ancestry–this is why a “one-size-fits-all” approach to healthcare and nutrition doesn’t always work. In my journey, I have sought to find a better way, and that is to stay healthy. I have a story to tell out of a major health crisis but won’t do that here. But, I will step out in faith and will share some resources, some have literally saved my life. Maybe if someone shared this information with me when I was younger, I would have avoided some trials, although … “You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make him drink” or in other words “The teacher will appear when the student is ready.” Some things in life you just have to be ready to learn. “He who has ears, let him hear.”(Matt13:9)
