Life is Fragile
I have this plant. I’ve managed to keep it alive for about three months knowing nothing about it. I’m not even sure I know what type it is. I have it in a pot with a sprig of spider plant. I think I need to repot it and move it. A couple of leaves have…

Watch Your Mouth
I am not one to over use profanity. It will slip out sometimes. I have always thought it detracts from who I really am when I use a word that is vulgar. On the flip side I am not a prude. I will not wilt if someone says one in front of me. I have…

Broken and still Useful
Why is it that God seems to choose the sinner over the righteous to do his work? Isaiah preached naked. Rahab was a prostitute. The Samaritan woman was divorced…more than once…Paul was a murderer.

Rest
Sometimes you must stop and rest. Don’t think. Don’t fight it. Don’t make excuses. The world will wait. It will be there upon your rising. Just give your soul the rest it needs. Neglecting this type of rest leads to stress and sadness. Save yourself the trouble and rest.

No Just No

Why so Snappy?
Why is it that some people are so snappy? Why is it that they walk up to counters in coffee shops, restaurants, doctor’s offices, post offices and libraries with such scowls on their faces, pointy words and harsh tones in their voices? I think the ants are back. Ants: Automatic Negative Thoughts. Maybe it is…

Who Is In Your Tribe
Have you given much thought to who is in your circle or tribe? I like both metaphors. I see my tribe as like minded people who I may or may not see every day. My tribe are mostly friends not family. Included are my online friends. My circle are the ones closer to me, my…

Take Care of Yourself
We do not always want to take care of us. We put off what we need to do for our well being for what? Others? Work? Responsibilities? What happens to those things if we are not healthy enough to take care of them or worse we die and or not here at all? Stop. Take…
