Remember That You Will Die
I have been a fan of Jonathan Roumie since the first time I saw him portray Jesus in “The Chosen”. When I saw him doing interviews and such, I noticed he wears skull rings. I wondered what that was all about. He explained it in one of the interviews. The skulls are to remind him […]
Fun to Live
I was talking with all my siblings this evening on our weekly Zoom meeting. I am so grateful that we have kept up with it for so long, starting in 2020 because of COVID. Today my brother was talking about how he’s worried about his old dog again as she has hurt her leg. He’s […]
Pale Blue Dot
Tonight as I was flipping through channels, I stopped on a program about our relationship with the stars. As in the stars in the sky. A couple of college filmmaking students travelled to Big Bend’s dark sky area. Their guide taught them how to look for the different constellations in the sky and prepared them […]
Happy Trees
I was busy cleaning today and when evening came, I was happy to sit and rest. I turned on the TV and came across PBS. Bob Ross was just about to come on, so I left it on the channel. I haven’t actually ever watched one of his painting episodes and was curious to see […]
Guardian Angel Friends
Today is the Memorial of the Holy Guardian Angels. I listened to a couple of reflections on the scripture that talk about each of us having a guardian angel. I take comfort in knowing that I have a friend who is with me, and also in the presence of God. It is mind boggling, but […]
Strange Encounter
Today was the feast day for St. Therese of Lisieux. She is most known for her writings called “A Story of the Soul”, in which she outlines the path to holiness by doing small things with great love. It is encouraging to me because when I learn about the tremendous lives of the saints, I […]
Beautiful Morning
I woke up way too early this morning with way too much on my mind. I couldn’t get back to sleep, so I just got up. I said my prayers and asked God to calm my mind. I had an early breakfast and decided to go for a long walk in the cool fall feeling […]
Faithful Friend
I talked to a friend today and we got caught up on what has been happening with our families and friends. At one point, she said that she didn’t have very much faith. Then, she proceeded to tell me that she heard something said at Mass today that gave her an idea of a way […]
Bear Antics
My brother and I went to the zoo today, one of our favorite outings. At the grizzly bear enclosure, we saw one of the large bears lying in a dirt dug out in the shade to stay cool. In front of us was a family with 5 kids viewing the bear through the thick glass. […]
Knowing How To Help
Today I heard from my cousin who has the same name as my mother. My heart always jumps a little when I see the name, but it also makes me smile. She sent me a photo of her orchid. When I visited a couple of months ago, we talked about them and how my mother […]
