Reflecting on This Thing We Call Life

I’m sitting here this week reflecting on everything going on in our world today. You know, the ebbs and spikes of the corona-virus, the resulting economic hardships, the civil injustices still prevalent even this week, and many other things. Yet, with all of those major issues affecting our society, our own life issues remain to Read More …

Insights and Revelation Through Art

I recently created two different pieces of art that had incredibly similar insights. Let me take you on my journey of discovery. A journey that had similarities that I didn’t even realize until after they were completed. It’s really uncanny how that happens! Lol! Art Challenge I am in an online group of other artists.

Changes, Chances, and Choices

Hmmm…Changes do indeed start with our choices, don’t they?! I saw this meme recently which made me think, or realize, how accurate and simple things really are. Everything around us in life that results in changes indeed begins with our choices. I talked about the power of our choices a while back. I don’t think Read More …

Rest, Restore, and Stillness as a Response to Covid-19

It looks like the entire world is slowly entering into a time of rest due to Covid-19, the latest corona-virus to affect humans. As I listen to news reports and updates from around the world, it seems “social distancing” and contagion precautions are everywhere. Lock-downs and recommendations to “shelter in place” are springing up in Read More …

Facing Opposition

It has occurred to me that I may be facing some fierce opposition, or oppositions. A few weeks ago I pretty much ranted in a post to my “diary” about what all my body has been dealing with in the last four months. It hasn’t been pretty, or fun. What makes me think I’m facing Read More …

The Juggling Act of Life

Learning to juggle all of life’s demands is something we all learn to do eventually. Then relearn. And learn it again, and again. (I know I have! Lol!) Yep! It’s one of those things that’s ever-changing! And that is simply due to the fact that life itself is ever-changing. Hence, the need to periodically re-evaluate Read More …

2020 ~ Welcome To A New Year & A New Decade!

Welcome to 2020 ~ Happy New Year, everybody!!! We’ve made it through another year, and another decade. Whew! Or, yay! (Depending on how your 2019 went. Lol!) I think I had a bundle of both mixed in there. Although, probably a bit more “yay!” than “whew!”. Regardless, we’re all part of the victorious crowd for Read More …

Christmas Memories and Lessons Learned

Now that we’re past Thanksgiving, we can focus on Christmas, traditions, and memories new and old. Let’s not get caught up in the arguments of what to call this season. After all I covered that in my Think About It post last year. We have much better things to do with our time, such as Read More …

Healing Emotional Wounds ~ New and Old

Healing is a process. And along that process we must face our wounds. New wounds. Old wounds. You know, “leave no stone unturned”. I’m not saying you must attack every hurt and every painful memory at one time. But, when a wound, or a deep emotional response presents itself, we must dig into it and Read More …

Prayer of Serenity

The “prayer of serenity” has a lot of memories for me. My Granny had a scroll calendar that hung in her hallway. On the back was the serenity prayer. After the “year” was over, you could turn it backwards to display the prayer. And that is exactly what my Granny did. So, over the years, Read More …
