Your Calling

“The place God calls you to is where your deep gladness and the world’s deep hunger meet.” ~Frederick Buechner

On the flip side

So, grownfolks, I live in one of the states within America that has begun opening up in phases and boy, what a difference it has made! There have been many losses we have all incurred in this period, but in thinking, I realized one thing: I like some of the outcomes of this pandemic. I…Read more On the flip side

Bones, bones, rise up!

Let’s talk today about laziness. Why? Why??? Because it’s a condition that eludes me much these days. Lol.

I seek for and thoroughly enjoy funny things, events, comments, memes, video clips, you name it. If it’s funny, I’ve got to see it. And when I laugh, it’s from the depth of…Read more Hardy-har-har.

Parent away!

Boy am I learning a lot in this journey of being a parent. One major thing, which I’ll dwell on today, is the issue of laziness.   Now, I realize I haven’t gone far in the parenting deal. There are people who are parents of 6-year-olds, 12-year olds, 30-year-olds. So I’m clearly just beginning. I’d…Read more Parent away!

Thoughts on this?

Because I know I'm not the only one who experiences occasional thunderstorms. I realize that the following is a pretty incomplete sentence ("Life isn't ABOUT waiting for the storm to pass..."), but what do you otherwise make of it?
