    Just Like That…

    I made a decision to simplify my life. I started with small things like marking unnecessary emails as junk. Then using a calendar on my phone to track places to be and important things to do. Then slowly making changes in my diet that are small yet healthy. One thing at a time. One small…

  • When to Walk

    When to Walk

    Every human should know when to walk away and you do know. It is hidden in that small voice that whispers to your good common sense. It is not easy to admit it to ourselves that our time at a place or with a person is done. Most often others see it before we do.…

  • Assumptions are Dangerous

    Assumptions are Dangerous

    You know what they say about assuming. Who they are I have no idea, but the saying goes, “To assume makes an ass of you (U) and me.” I have to admit I assume things. Often when I do, it is the negative that I assume. As in, “He will hate this.” or “He thinks…

  • Life is Fragile

    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

    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

    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. Moses was a murderer and couldn’t talk. Noah was a known drunk. The chosen king David coveted another man’s wife and…

  • Rest

    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.

  • Do it I Dare You

    Do it I Dare You

    My mother posted this quote on Facebook…. When someone says, you can’t do it, do it twice and take pictures. She has always been a bit of a rebel. I guess I get some of my take no BS and snarkness from her. Truth be told, she is on to something. It is different if…

  • I am an Alien.

    I am an Alien.

    Sometimes I feel like an alien. It is like I do not belong on this planet. Then one day this restless feeling in my being made perfect sense. I am an alien. Not an outer space, green, flying saucer alien, but a spiritual alien. I am actually a spirit, a soul. My person-ness, my being-ness,…

  • No Just No

    No Just No

    As much as I know you do not what to hear this also know that I hate this lesson, this truth too. Sometimes no is the answer. I hate it when I want to do or go or have or not do and the answer is flat out NO But why? My human inner and…
