A new approach. I hope you like it.

Sometimes, new is good. I hope you’ll overlook the fact that I am reposting. I wanted to see what this looked like. Maybe I’ll post something like this every end-of-month, so in case you didn’t read a post, they are all in one place.

So, what do you think?

Besides, trying something new is good, right? And considering it’s the end of the month, it works out well.

Plus, I like being able to see my posts this way as well. It’s been two months of reflection and sorting things out. Mental health, identifying the truly important, and relationships. Some pretty heady subjects. But what else is there to do in these two dark, cold months?

Now, I contend with this Afib diagnosis. I’m having a hard time adjusting to the medications. But I try to see things in perspective. It’s not terminal. It’s treatable. Perspective certainly helps. Besides, I’m an overcomer in Christ.

I hope you have a great weekend and blessings to each of you.

    Remembering the sacrifices and behaving like we do

    How to treat sweating the “natural” way.

    How many of you have big plans for this week-end? Are you kayaking or canoeing? Camping? One thing these activities might have in common is sweating. Yep, sweating. A smelly topic, huh? But if your’re into the “natural” approach to things, you might like this article. I haven’t tried it myself but seeing as lemons… Read more

  • Why we should make good word choices

    Why we should make good word choices

    Why are some people so mean and  thoughtless?  Why do they saw suck unkind things? Why do they use words like “retarded” and stupid? There’s nothing wrong with the word itself. Words by themselves are fairly neutral but we all know how we feel when we’ve been the recipient of a word used in a derogatory manner.… Read more

    Why “anyway” can be a great encouragement

    (continued from yesterday) The biggest men and women with the biggest ideas can be shot down by the smallest men and women with the smallest minds. Think big anyway. People favor underdogs but follow only top dogs. Fight for a few underdogs anyway. What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight. Build anyway. People… Read more

  • Which side of the road are you on?

    No, it’s not a leading question. It’s not meant to mean something it doesn’t. But now that I’ve written it, I’m definitely going to use it in the future for a completely different purpose. I mean it’s a really good question on so many different levels, isn’t it? But that’s for a future post. Anyway……… Read more
