Trouble comes in life. In so many forms. On a personal level, and on a global level. Much of it comes from a lack of clear communication – sometimes on the part of the speaker, and sometimes on the part of the listener. And sometimes both.

From Nature
Sitting by the babbling brook Open your heart and take a look There’s more out there than meets the eye If you only glance as you go by All sorts of things you will find If you’re looking with your heart and mind And don’t just use your eyes to seek Stop and listen to… Continue reading From Nature

Superwhatever
I’ve been doing a lot of reading lately. I’ve been so busy I haven’t been making the time until the last couple of weeks, when I’ve been making myself find time. I have really missed it.

We have people over fairly regularly, most weeks on Sunday evenings for fun, food, and fellowship, but there is rarely a week that goes by that… Continue reading Bondfire

Wonder Woman
A couple of days ago, I made a Facebook post. It was just 4 pictures, summing up my day. I had comments, and I have had them before, like, “You are a superwoman!” Let me tell you. I feel more like Wonder Woman. As in, I wonder how everything is going to get done. I… Continue reading Wonder Woman
