Until I Can Breathe Again

I’ve been trying to find the words to express my thoughts and explain my feelings on my long-term breather. It’s difficult and it’s exhausting to even think putting my feelings into words. I happened to find them by one of my virtual favorites, Dr. Glenn Doyle. “Sometimes we might have to push pause and takeContinue reading “Until I Can Breathe Again”

I Had an Abortion

I cannot recall the exact year but it was sometime in the early 2000s, I was married and I didn’t want another child. After getting pregnant on birth control pills with my first and only child I opted for an I. U. D., as recommended by my physician. It was my only option to notContinue reading “I Had an Abortion”

Hope is the Substance

I recently listened to a sermon by T.D. Jakes on Faith. He referenced Hebrews 11:1 in his sermon. It’s a scripture that I’ve heard all my life but as he broke it down in his special way, it spoke to my soul. Stirred so much within me that I have so far listened to itContinue reading “Hope is the Substance”

You Think You Know

I frequently hear people say “I would’ve” in reference to comparing themselves to an individual. The mindset of saying you would’ve not done it that way or said it that way or thought that way has zero to do with you. Just because you haven’t experienced it or just because you have experienced it andContinue reading “You Think You Know”

I Am Weary

The definition of weary is: exhausted in strength, endurance, vigor, or freshness. Depending on what website you believe, the word “weary” is mentioned up to 96 times in the Bible. The writers identified a lot with it and so does this writer. Feeling weary is more than being physically or mentally tired. It’s a callContinue reading “I Am Weary”

Comfort Breeds Complacency

Being comfortable often breeds complacency and it will mess your life up in every corner. From the bedroom to the job, if you are complacent you will eventually lose. T.D. Jakes spoke on complacency last Sunday and he made so many valid points that it’s too many for me to share but I want toContinue reading “Comfort Breeds Complacency”

Jonah

When I first viewed this cartoon image, I chuckled but then I said “truth”. There is much truth in this if you see it as an analogy for life. Have you ever felt swallowed up and can’t get reception for help? I’ve been swallowed up in fear, anxiety, worry, and depression to the point thatContinue reading “Jonah”

Eckhart Tolle at Fox Theatre

When something is meant to be, you cannot stop it. It’s going to show up when you are not attached and as one might say, “when you are not looking for it or least expect it.” And that is how it works. Last week I ran across that Eckhart Tolle was coming to the FoxContinue reading “Eckhart Tolle at Fox Theatre”

The Other Incest – Emotional

Covert incest, or emotional incest, occurs when a parent or caregiver relies on a child for the support that an adult partner would usually provide. They may also treat the child like a romantic partner. Covert incest is different from physical incest because it does not involve sexual abuse. Do you know someone that tellsContinue reading “The Other Incest – Emotional”

Wednesday Wisdom

I’ve had some quality conversations this week. Worthy enough to be on a podcast. I want to drop some nuggets that have been said in those conversations. What people think of you is none of your business. People will transfer their stuff to you. If they feel jaded in their relationships they will try toContinue reading “Wednesday Wisdom”
