Gospel of the Windmill cover
Deeper in the woods than I had ever gone before . . . that is where I found myself as I had just wandered without paying attention to where I was or where I was going. My mind and my heart were struggling with my overwhelming life, so I was startled when I saw a mysterious scene in front of me.
A windmill standing in a dark overgrown area that looked untended by anyone – kind of like my life right now, overgrown and untended – a rusted windmill was just standing there.
What was a windmill doing in the middle of a heavily wooded area? It reminded me of me again, wondering what I was doing in the middle of my heavily “wooded” life, standing in the dark.

About Jeanne
a work in progress . . . with many traumas of varying intensities and life experiences revealing a Power beyond explanation, I am more open and less defined than in years past - raised in a fundamentalist Judeo-Christian home, I spent my young adult years searching for “truth” in many places and “unlearning” much of what I “knew” and that has drawn me to explore many other paths and gain from the journeys of others.
My childhood was spent living in many places in the United States due to my family's music or ministry—The Hicks Family, made up of Olan and Barbara Hicks, my younger brothers, Clint and Chuck and me, sang in different combos (put out an album) - we do so no longer professionally . . . but, until my parents’ passing, a visit to a family gathering in Searcy would bring you to hear some harmonizing and foot-tapping sounds!
Music still speaks to my heart. Photography and graphic design are primary aspects of the path God has me walking - new lessons come often as I observe and ponder the world around me and learn from creation—so exciting!
