What a Difference Perspective Makes
Six years ago, I knew God had me on a mission. I knew I was mandated to “rise to the occasion”. In spite of the challenging times we were in during that entire year, I knew God had given me a mandate that included finding the blessing in every situation we were encountering – to…
Open my Eyes and Ears and Heart. Help me NOTICE.
A couple of Sundays ago, I was so caught up in conversation with a friend, that I barely NOTICED when a sweet young friend, handed me a page of artwork. I told her “Thank you so much” and hugged her, but not until I got in my car did I take the time to look…
Outlook and Perspective
The 2016 Unstoppable Leadership Summit in Texas continued today with incredible sessions that always radically impact us with a new outlook and perspective for this new year. I loved it when we all received black rimmed glasses (outlook & perspective) with an arrow on the sides — trajectory. Set-backs are like an arrow that is…
Perspective: It’s the Way SEE Things
Day 302 of Photo Inspirations — Perspective: It’s the Way We SEE Things I’m not posting this as yet another selfie, but I was inspired for the eye glasses clerk to take my photo because I had a “photo inspiration” moment. While my eyes were dilated from my eye exam, I had about 20 minutes…
FedEx — EXPRESS — What Do YOU See?
Day 143 of Photo Inspirations — FedEx — EXPRESS — What DO YOU SEE? I saw this FedEx Express Truck — being loaded on a tow truck. I thought “Well, that certainly redefines EXPRESS — NOT!” When I think of EXPRESS, I think of an EXPRESS train or bus — that has little to…

Day 136 of Photo Inspirations — It’s All About Perspective — MY Birthday!!

A girl needs something to do while…
Embracing Change
Day 73 of Photo Inspirations — Embracing Change A lot of trees were there before the CHANGE came for the land to become a shopping and entertainment area. Yesterday, when I returned home from Texas, just north of my subdivision, this new store, Gander Mtn, having its Grand Opening. I stopped in to see all…
Sweet Times Between Papaw and Daddy
Day 69 of Photo Inspirations – Sweet Times Between Papaw & Daddy While my kids were in Tulsa last weekend, Staci and I got to grab a whole afternoon together — a rare opportunity. We found ourselves chatting a lot about her Daddy (my Honey) and the influences he had had on her life. Seems…
What’s YOUR Perspective?
Day 68 of Photo Inspirations — What’s YOUR Perspective? While my Texas grandchildren were here, they practiced the speeches that they’ll be giving at their Speech & Debate Competition. Alexia’s speech includes this story on “perspective”. There was family that had two twin boys; one was an eternal optimist, the other a doom and gloom…
It’s an Upside Down World!
Day 65 of Photo Inspirations — It’s an upside down world — well, at least from this vantage point it is. It’s all about perspective. And, this world can seem quite upside down — even when we’re right side up. What happened to the good old days when we could leave our doors unlocked,…
