I once again am taking a sabbatical from all social media for the period of Lent. I started nearly two weeks ago and there definitely has been a void in my life that I’ve taken note of. You don’t realize how much time you devote to someone or something until you stop paying attention toContinue reading “Hiatus Nearly Two Weeks In, With a Month Yet to Go…”

Change a thought, move a muscle…
I’ve been given some time to do quite a bit of thinking. I’ve started walking again and that’s helped with my train of thought. I’ve also been reading a lot and listening to audiobooks of what I’ve been reading. And while I can’t readily recall all the wisdom I’ve covered, I can’t but think it’sContinue reading “Change a thought, move a muscle…”
Moving Forward….
Life is meant to be lived…or so I’m told. When there are those unexpected occurences in life, when things go awry,,,,it’s not always easy to know what to do. What you thought about life and the people in it can change with little or no notice. It’s what you do after those unexpected changes thatContinue reading “Moving Forward….”
On a More Positive Note…
I spent some time reflecting yesterday on how my faith life has been lacking a bit here of late. But I am also reminded that I have a lot to be thankful for in this life. An attitude of gratitude goes a long way in helping combat any feeling of lack I might be havingContinue reading “On a More Positive Note…”
Mind over Matter….
Do the thoughts and emotions running through our minds have an effect on the outside world? Quite a bit of the reading I’ve done here of late would seem to say “yes.” Fascinating concept and something to ponder as I go through my daily routine. I can readily say that I am an overthinker asContinue reading “Mind over Matter….”
100 Days of Writing – Day One Hundred
It’s taken me just over eleven months to get one hundred days of writing. As I look back over the ninety-nine posts, I’m reminded of on thing: impermanence. Things are always going to be changing in life and we must accept things that we don’t particularly like or understand along the path. So much hasContinue reading “100 Days of Writing – Day One Hundred”
100 Days of Writing – Day Ninety-Eight
Random journal entries are interesting to read and sometimes give a new perspective on the past…These are my words from a journal that contains a wide variety of views and observations. I don’t have any particular objective with my selection of writings. Just to share what was going through my mind at the time. NovemberContinue reading “100 Days of Writing – Day Ninety-Eight”
100 Days of Writing – Day Ninety-Four
Radical acceptance…radical surrender…and lessons to be learned. I’ve read a lot about the process of “letting go” and although it seems simple, it’s definitely never easy. There are so many, some say most, things that are beyond our locus of control in this world. It seems this is especially true when it comes to otherContinue reading “100 Days of Writing – Day Ninety-Four”
100 Days of Writing – Day Ninety-Three
The world of emotions can be like a roller coaster ride with lots of ups and downs. But as a friend reminded me today, at least I have a roller coaster. This week of spring break has been a good time to relax and get a few things done around the house. While I didn’tContinue reading “100 Days of Writing – Day Ninety-Three”
Shared Reading: “The Point of No Return”
There are those points in our lives when we realize we cannot return to our former way of living. And while those times past can often come calling, we have to understand that staying in the present moment and moving forward are always going to be in our best interest. I struggle with this onContinue reading “Shared Reading: “The Point of No Return””
