September 7th, 2011 This morning I came across the story of how an emperor moth emerges from it’s cocoon. Then I saw the first school bus go by. It was opening day in our town. Watching the children on the bus as it drove by made me think of my many opening days and the one particular thing . . . → Read More: My Butterflies
September 6th, 2011 I always thought fasting meant going without food so as to remind us that we should depend on God in our daily lives, and not all the things we cram our days with. Being raised Catholic, it was traditionally during the lenten season we were taught from a very young age to give up something . . . → Read More: A “Fast” Fix
September 4th, 2011 Irene was not kind to my sister in upstate NY. She lost an investment property and came very close to losing her own home. She won't get power until tomorrow night, making for a very difficult week. She bought a generator for $800 and it takes $40 a day to keep her food from going . . . → Read More: Home
September 3rd, 2011 This morning I was listening to my husband put together a bowl of Cheerios and bananas as I sat in my chair watching the morning news. All of a sudden I hear an expletive. The milk was bad. I felt sorry for him and offered to run down to the corner store and get some. . . . → Read More: Breakfast Banter
September 2nd, 2011 Today yoga was still excruciating, and there were no more blatant messages about going slow, but a wonderful message about the unique communication between souls was in my morning meditation:
“Souls do talk. Listen quietly. Listen to your own. Learn to hear the voice of others’. A little soul talk goes a long way.” ~ . . . → Read More: Soul Talk
September 1st, 2011 We all had a lot of laughs over ME having ADD. (Thank you daughter for the negative diagnosis.) People from yoga enjoyed that too, considering I have such severe focus in class, the teacher often tries to break into it.
So, no ADD, but the warnings to go slow still keep coming. After the . . . → Read More: Suddenly I See….
August 30th, 2011 This morning, while going through my prayer list, I paused to pray for a friend who really wants to do something, but is afraid. I started to pray for God to give her the courage to do it, but instead was lead to pray for her to slow down and not rush it.
Then, . . . → Read More: Slow Going
August 29th, 2011 Irene came and went and left more than a few twigs on my lawn. It was wonderful to wake up to a normal breezy cape morning. The day was spent in yard cleanup. My husband “vacuumed” the lawn with the tractor, while I picked up all the oversized branches. No sooner had we begun our . . . → Read More: The Day After Irene…Still Fearful
August 24th, 2011 The book, The Secret, was brought up in conversation today. This book and video have been sensationalized on talk shows and the Internet. I read it, along with Lisa Love’s Beyond the Secret. The “secret” is the law of attraction; the concept being what you think about is what you’ll get. Now don’t get me . . . → Read More: What Secret?
August 22nd, 2011 This summer I have had the pleasure of teaching a Young Authors Workshop to two very gifted nine year olds. I held it in my home, out in my summer room one evening a week. My first year of retirement I didn’t miss teaching at all, but this past year I missed teaching children a . . . → Read More: It’s Coming….
