Love
Relationships vs Tasks
Today at the grocery store, I came upon an elderly woman who was wearing large dark glasses and using a cane. She was accompanied by a young man probably in his early 20’s with longish hair wearing a camouflage shirt. They were perusing the meat. At first I thought she may be blind, but she […]
Everyone Loves Bindi Irwin
So, we watched the season finale of “Dancing With the Stars” tonight. Bindi Irwin took home the mirror ball trophy, which was not surprising in the least. From the beginning it was evident that there really is something special about this girl. And as the weeks went on, we got to see more of who […]
Unexpected Cross and Love Locks
My sister who broke her leg started back to work part time this week. Luckily, she works from home most of the time, so she can remain as comfortable as possible and not worry about driving. However, she had a big meeting today in her office downtown, so we got up early to make the […]
Loving Family Support
Today is my son and his wife’s wedding anniversary. I was remembering last year when they celebrated by having their marriage blessed in a church ceremony. They had their dream wedding that they were not able to have when they were first married by a justice of peace. This year was a completely different scenario. […]
Loving Choices
I started my day off a little unsettled. I allowed negative thoughts and past hurts get into my head. Once they are there, I have a hard time shaking them off. So I looked forward to going to church and praying that God would get me on the right track. Unfortunately, my parents did not […]
Letting It Out
By the time I ended my day yesterday, I had a headache, was exhausted, somewhat sad, and a little cranky. So I went out for a leisurely walk. I try not to put my problems on anyone, as I know everyone has struggles of their own. But I decided to call my sister. We chatted […]
Love, Support, Prayers
Today I received an unexpected card and note from a far away friend. It was full of news and encouragement. I was touched most deeply by knowing that she prays for me often. It is heart warming and humbling. I Found God today in love, support, and prayers from far away.
Love of His Kids
Today, my parents and I went to the lawyer’s office to talk more about estate planning. It has been weighing heavy on my dad’s mind. The lawyer was patient and caring as she listened to the story of the family. My dad wanted her to have a good idea who we are and such to help […]
Caring Dads
It seemed like dad’s day to me today. When I was out running errands, I saw a man carrying a baby in one of those front carrier devices. I thought it was the cutest thing. As I was checking out, a family came by on their way out of the store. Mom was pushing the […]
Newly Engaged
Today I talked with a young woman who recently became engaged. I have known her and her family for years, and it is hard to believe she is even old enough for this to happen. She told me the beautiful story of their relationship. They met each other 4 years ago when they were both […]
