You’ve all heard the saying “Living in the past”. You’ve also been told that it’s your CHOICE whether you live in said past. W-E-L-L?! Maybe 90% of the time it IS your choice. But what about this other 10% that I’m talking about? Hang on to something, you’re about to get an answer – whetherContinue reading “Living In The Past – Voluntary? Or Not?”

“Maybe It’s Not About Me”
Where we’ve all been told at one time or another that “maybe it just isn’t about you” or, we might even have said the same words to ourselves. There might be something in the following poem that you may recognize within yourselves – whatever season of life you may be in. As a small childContinue reading ““Maybe It’s Not About Me””
Something To Strive For
I saw a quote this morning that really got me thinking. (Yes, I DO think – occassionally!) This quote is by an Unkown Author and goes like this: “Live your best, act your best, and think your best each day, for there may be no tomorrows.” Quite the twist on the usual “Eat, drink, andContinue reading “Something To Strive For”
For A Friend
Something has been on my mind to write this down. I’m sure people will be able to find someone they know being described in part or in whole within this poem, whether alive or already gone. I did not know Michelle long – just short of three years before she passed away – yet becomingContinue reading “For A Friend”
And Now We’re Done
The presents are all unwrapped; the turkey is nothing but a carcass, with left-overs stored in the fridge to make turkey sandwiches, turkey soup, turkey casserole . . . and whatever else can be manufactured from turkey! Not to mention the stuffing, yams, potatoes, gravy, vegetables – but the dessert is all gone! We haveContinue reading “And Now We’re Done”
This Blessed Season of Contradictions: Part Two
This is something I wrote last year – a year that was extremely difficult for me, especially around this time. Count your blessing, and may you all be safe during this Season. “Contradictions” Christmas for many, a joyful afair;Christmas for some, such deep despair!Laughter and loving, while family surrounds;No one to visit, no one around.Continue reading “This Blessed Season of Contradictions: Part Two”
This Blessed Season of Contradictions: Part One
How can I call the Christmas Season a Season of contradictions? There are s-o-o-o many people that suffer through this Season. I’m not just talking about the people who really don’t have very many – or any – material possessions, albeit that is cause for generosity and good will. I’m talking about the people thatContinue reading “This Blessed Season of Contradictions: Part One”
Internal Dialogue
As I looked back to see when my last Post was, shamefacedly I realize it’s been TWENTY DAYS!! That has to be THE longest I’ve been away from here. I should have guessed when I opened the App and it asked me to log in again!! How dare I?!?!? This leads in nicely to tonight’sContinue reading “Internal Dialogue”
The Young Pay Tribute, Too
Today is Remembrance Day in Canada and Armistice Day in the United States, both countries honouring the Veterans of the first world “war to end all wars”, which culminated at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month. This day is honoured by more than just the two countries mentioned, as “World”Continue reading “The Young Pay Tribute, Too”
Falling Asleep Where?!?!
O.K. Tonight’s Blog is going to be an awkward one to say the least – and a somewhat silly one. Have you ever wondered if anyone else fell asleep in some of the same places and/or positions as you yourself have? Not to mention at THE oddest, most awkward moments to let out a snortContinue reading “Falling Asleep Where?!?!”
Life! And we're still here! Humble stumbles & bumbles!
