Have you ever read Shel Silverstein's The Missing Piece? I read this to small children a long time ago, in a place far away. I loved reading this book to small children. While it's written for children I think this book is for adults, to remind us that in and of ourselves we are indeed … Continue reading The Chip

Sometimes I hope
That I'm really listening. The other night as I climbed into bed *short girl/tall bed* I remembered a scene from Touched by an Angel where Monica, was standing in the middle of the desert.

Peaceful
You all know that "Oceans" speaks to my heart deeply, in looking back there are at least 6 posts with the song as the basis.

Full of darkness and danger they were. And sometimes you didn’t want to know the end. Because how could the … Continue reading Craftsmanship
So, I read a few blogs
I'm sure you're shocked. And there is often something beautiful and deep going on behind the scenes. I've been reading Easily Crestfallen, watching a journey of faith unfold.

Supply and Demand
Earlier this year I got a new phone. I needed one with more memory as the older one "lost" memory when I had to do a hard reset. I was constantly clearing cache, removing apps, trying to turn off built-in apps. So I purchased a new phone, with more memory giving me room for regular … Continue reading Supply and Demand
Bitter? I think not…
Where did we leave off? Oh yeah, I remember now...I was sharing with you how looking deeper changed my perception of Naomi and Ruth.
