I am perfectly flawed. This is my mid-week confession. I don’t do ‘waiting’ very well. At times it smells like ungratefulness mixed with discontent. One moment I think I’ve mastered the art of complete trust in God and in the process. The next – I’m a mess. Maybe you’re a ‘girl like me’ [or aContinue reading “Girl Like Me- Confession”

Thought You’d Like to Know
Dear Younger Me, It’s some forty-something years late but I felt the need to write to you. There are somethings I thought you’d like to know. First I wanted you to know that you were meant to be here. You were created to thrive not just survive. To live not just exist. Your heavenly FatherContinue reading “Thought You’d Like to Know”
Same Steps
Legacy is an amazing thing! I went back to college a second time when my son was a baby. That’s me at my graduation, twenty-something years old and my son – 3 years old. In 2015, my son graduated from the same college. Here we are – I am sitting on the same steps bothContinue reading “Same Steps”
A Small Cloud
This week I made a joke with one of my students. She didn’t like it and proceeded to tell me so. I apologized. She then left my class. Not one of my finest moments. As I reflected on my response, I smiled. There was a time when I would have been moved from my placeContinue reading “A Small Cloud”
Legacy- Then and Now
I had to do this post sometime. The time is now. Of course, February is not the only time we celebrate love and history – but there’s no better time than the present. This story of love and legacy began way before I was born. It began in the 1950s, but was cemented in January,Continue reading “Legacy- Then and Now”
Speak To Me
This photo was taken by a friend of mine who has been honing her craft beautifully. Thank you GNC for allowing me to use this! It’s funny how we pass trees everyday but somehow ignore their magnificence. I wondered if they could speak to us, what they would say. After all, we have the sameContinue reading “Speak To Me”
This Day
Today – TWOSDAY [ Tuesday, 2/22/22]- is a one-time special day. As a little girl, I remember 7/7/77 and all the drama surrounding it. Just like mid-night 12/31/1999. I remember exactly where I was. The world was expected to come to stop on 1/1/2000. Do you remember? For some reason there are some days thatContinue reading “This Day”
Dear John
Many of us are familiar with ‘Dear John’ letters. From what I read, the term was coined somewhere during World War II. These were letters sent to servicemen from their loves, ending a relationship. A dreaded letter, as you might imagine. Well, that’s me and my real John. That was his real name!! I won’tContinue reading “Dear John”
Reflections
Sat in my empty classroom decompressing after a 3-hour virtual class. I haven’t seen any students face-to-face since March 2020. Every now and then I go back to pictures. Whoever invented the art of picture taking – I love you. Even more amazing, is that beautiful, fascinating part of us called the mind. The storageContinue reading “Reflections”
Is This Love?
So, humor me. Did Bob Marley get an answer to his question ‘ ‘ Is this love, is this love, is this love that I’m feeling? I wanna know..”🎶💖 I don’t know if he did, but I do know most of us have asked that question a time or two. At times we have beenContinue reading “Is This Love?”
