and Purposeful Prose
Adventure called So I ran straight out the door! My hopes were high But they all soon hit the floor. My eyes were bright Fixed on a view that I'd longed for Then trouble came running And I lost the metaphor It's a mystery What tomorrow will bring It's a tug-of-war that can undo my [...]
No, I haven’t become Miss Doom and Gloom. I haven't lost hope either. 😀 I found this little "lost episode" in my email. I wrote it waaaaaaay back before the pandemic got started. It does pay off to squirell things away, especially when you're prone to choppy seas. Consider this a lost episode of Star [...]
About three years ago I became very sensitive to hair colouring so I decided I'd ditch the dye. My ears were insanely itchy! I wanted to stop colouring eventually, anyways, so I went for it. I failed the first attempt. As those silver strands started to appear at the top of my head I wasn't [...]

You're going to have to take a really close look at the photo below. Can you see the bee leaving? I think it looks as if he lept off the flower rather than flew off of it. He is taking a leap of faith! 😀 How about you, are you "bee leaving" too? And Jesus [...]
Little things can become big things and big things can become little things. It's all a matter of perspective, right? Where is your heart? What means the most to you? For the Christian Faith Comes First. We can look at the little picture and we can look at the bigger picture. I want to look [...]
Stay Hopeful. Yes, I am telling myself this too. I have two songs by Ryan Stevenson. I'll let the rest say the rest. Sometimes you have to let someone else do the talking. "The LORD is my strength and my song. He is my savior." Psalm 118:14 The Best is Yet to Come https://youtu.be/3frQkfgejDk "Some [...]
I was sitting out under the magnolia tree one night thinking. One of my best friends likes to sit under an apple tree. I've been meaning to offer a warning about the dangers of sitting under fruit trees. Just ask Sir Issac Newton. On the bright side, Sir Newton did learn something. It only took [...]
