New “Author”ity

Recently on Facebook, my author friend Diana Brandmeyer (A Mind of Her Own), recommended a book by an author friend of hers. The book was on sale for $1.99 and I was in need of a new read, so I downloaded it. The name of the book was “Condemn Me Not” by Dianne Venetta. It . . . → Read More: New “Author”ity

What About The Women?

When we look back at the people who shaped history it’s noticeable that they were mostly men. Where were the women? We’re they all just home, tending the children and the hearth? This was the question posed by my author friend, Nancy Rubin Stuart. She had the feeling women weren’t just content keeping the home . . . → Read More: What About The Women?

St. Patty’s Day Enlightenment

St. Patrick was a courageous kind of guy. He was captured and taken hostage at a young age. His captors took him from his homeland in Britain to Ireland and kept him in prison for years.

What’s My Hurry?

Read this first:

Down In The Valley

My breath was knocked out of me at Jean Do's plight because I absolutely cannot imagine my brain being alive and not being able to do what I'm doing now – communicating my thoughts and words to you. But he wrote a whole book AFTER this happened to . . . → Read More: What’s My Hurry?

Going In

This past week I wrote a post about Dr.Phil's new book, "Life Code". I was only half way through the book so I only read the parts that involved giving us the "playbook" of the B.A.I.T.E.R.S. (those out there to harm us) Today I reached the second half of the book where he is giving . . . → Read More: Going In

“Life Code”

Last week I attended the first session of our spring women's bible study. We are doing Beth Moore again, this time it's called "Daniel – Lives of Integrity, Words of Prophecy". We saw the first video, and it didn't really speak to me in any specific way – had a lot of history about kings. . . . → Read More: “Life Code”

What? LIVE With An Unsolved Problem?

What? Live with an unsolved problem? Really Lord? There's peace in that?

That was my reaction to my morning reading this morning. I'm taking a second trip through Melody Beattie's More The Language of Letting Go. This morning that concept was just flung across the page, striking me, and even enraging me a little. Isn't . . . → Read More: What? LIVE With An Unsolved Problem?

Throw It Out To The Universe

Tonight I’m reading “Charming Lily” by Fern Michaels. It’s not very well-written, but I am enjoying the storyline. One character, in the midst of his conflict, is very spiritually oriented and uses the phrase “Throw it out to the universe and see what comes back to you.” The two times so far, when his back . . . → Read More: Throw It Out To The Universe
