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.
If faith doesn’t work during times of illness, when will it?
I hope you have a great weekend and blessings to each of you.

Today I thought I would show you the same pieces from yesterday but with different vignettes. This is the hutch decorated for Christmas a few years ago. It Read more

A unique way to arrange things
Don’t think like a decorator. A unique way to arrange things means not thinking like a decorator. Now, I am not a professional decorator, but I’m always asked for my opinions, so I assume that’s because people like what I’ve done in my own home. I have a unique approach, and it’s because I also Read more

Accepting inauthenticity in others is an excellent thing
We accept others’ inauthenticity on their journey to growth. Accepting inauthenticity in others is required of us even when we are on the journey to realness within ourselves. So how do we do this and not compromise our own genuine self? First, we remember what the apostle Paul wrote in Romans 15:7: Let’s be brutally Read more
