Living an Exclamation Point Life
I apologize for the consistent “going home” blogs for many days now. I guess I can’t help myself. The “going home” part of our lives is a crowning achievement for those of us who believe there is life after death. My dear mother-in-law exited this life on earth, Saturday, October 15th, and her life here-after…
If God is Your Co-Pilot – Swap Seats
My husband and I were both pilots, but he was always the pilot-in-charge. We had a Cessna 182 and I was his co-pilot. I would help with navigating and being his extra pair of eyes, ears, and hands. And, it is the same in commercial planes. The co-pilot’s job is important, but he/she never forgets…
How Can I Say Thanks? Maybe by Showing it!
Yesterday was Ash Wednesday – the day that kick-starts the season of Lent and continues 40 days through to Holy Thursday just before Easter. Many of us who were hard hit by the ice and snowstorms over the last few days, look outward to our snow and ice-packed streets. Many are reeling from electric, water…

And That’s The Way It Goes!
My mother-in-law, who has always been known for her wit, called me a couple of nights ago and she was on a roll. Typically, it is just a “check-in” call to see how things are going, but this night she was recalling some stories of her childhood and how she and her brother got into…
It Doesn’t Have to Be My Way!
Day 195 of Photo Inspirations – It Doesn’t Have to Be My Way! Remember Frank Sinatra singing “I did it my way”? The song was about a man fondly looking back on a life lived on his own terms. But, is that the way WE want to live? I attended a meeting on Thursday where…
I Need Directions To……………
Day 149 of Photo Inspirations — I Need Directions To……… A few days ago, as my friends and I had our morning walk, we were talking about prayer and if we have an awareness of “God With Us” wherever we go, and whatever we are doing, then we don’t have to be in a certain…
