May I introduce you to NEW JOURNEYS ON OLD ROADS?  This is a space I’ve selected to leave my thoughts, experiences, dreams, goals, and connect with “like minds” in the blogosphere.

I write because a voice inside compels me to do so.  I have a life-long love of WORDS and a desire to formulate those words into collections of thoughts.  My sole purpose is to give & receive encouragement, hope and positive feelings along life’s road on this journey we call life.

Why should you follow NEW JOURNEYS ON OLD ROADS if I’m just another of the millions of blogs available to you?

Traveling with Van Hess is about people, places and thingsbut more than that it’s about how I look at the people • how I think about places • how I analyze things. 

Would it make a difference for you today if you…

  • reconnect to a relationship or forge a new one
  • recall a place in your mind or envision a new one
  • revive an old dream or discover a new one

The purpose of this blog is to begin a dialogue that will spread among your friends, contacts, and community.  I welcome your feedback.  For details of my guidelines, go to My Rules

Another Fact About Van Hess~~ I am a Nana ♥ to two wonderful/beautiful/talented  (and I could go on like most grandmothers do) young adult women.  Both are beginning their life’s journey, and I pray they find what is right for them.

GOD'S POETIC CHILD!!!

Dear Reader, I am here to give you a little taste of poetry with some water on the side. When you come on my blog that's all that you will taste is Poetry. Not the type of poetry where it doesn't have a meaning. The type of poetry where you will be inspired, uplifted and you will have a different mindset once you leave this site. You might even come to get a taste of this poetry again. Don't be afraid to let your kids read this blog. My poetry is for and to help the youth. Bring them along with you. You both are scrolling down your phone or on the computer anyway. Let's have fun and get a taste of some poetry. I promise this type of poetry tastes delicious. Grab a plate and a fork and I'll feed you. ENJOY!!!!
