That’s a no-brainer for me – go to bed earlier. One small improvement – a lifetime of benefits. I know I am sleep deprived. A pal of mine, who never seems to sleep, commented that he’ll sleep when he’s dead. I want to enjoy sleep now, while I’m alive. It may not make me liveContinue reading “A little more 💤”

We All Need One
I love these two men. Both have been friends to me in different ways. One has mentored me in leadership. One has been my brother from another mother. We talk about everything and anything. We are beyond transparent with each other – pure unadulterated love. He is one of my most perfectly imperfect friends andContinue reading “We All Need One”
That was Then
That was September 2024 during the hurricane season. The avocado tree in my back yard didn’t survive the winds that Helene brought. We had to have it chopped and removed. In falling, thankfully it missed my back porch and roof by just a few inches. It also snapped some service cables nearby. Sometimes when weContinue reading “That was Then”
Today’s Melody
I truly appreciate song writers who touch the soul with their lyrics. Words that often echo what you wanted to say but couldn’t. Songs that wake you up and remind you of your ‘why’. Those that redirect your thoughts to the greatness of the God we claim to worship. We are prone to forget whoContinue reading “Today’s Melody”
Unwind
Some days I just need to breathe. Embrace what is. Lay my weapons down – Let someone else fight on my behalf. Some days I choose surrender. I let go and let God.
I Look To You – Again
“The God who made the world and everything in it…doesn’t live in custom-made shrines or need the human race to run errands for him, as if He couldn’t take care of himself. Starting from scratch, He made the entire human race and made the earth hospitable, with plenty of time and space for living soContinue reading “I Look To You – Again”
Love You Lots
Sleep. I don’t – can’t get enough of you. I dream of you constantly. Especially when I’m heading home. When we collide it’s a thing of beauty. You take me to places that nothing or no one else can. Things happen to my body when I’m with you – I’m refreshed, reset and revived. WithContinue reading “Love You Lots”
With Him
The first hour of my day finds me in conversation with the One who holds me the closest. The One who makes beauty from the ashes of my broken pieces. The only One whose love will never leave me empty and lacking. The One who can break and heal all at once. This where IContinue reading “With Him”
Laugh a Little
It doesn’t take too much to make me laugh. I’d like to think it’s just in my nature. The people in my space over the years have consistently added much joy to my life. When I count my blessings, they are at the forefront of my mind. My days would not be the same withoutContinue reading “Laugh a Little”
Mary, Did You Know?
During this period of Lent, people of faith often take moments to reflect. This week I tried to imagine the head space that Mary [ the mother of Jesus] was in back then. In the coming days she would stand and watch her son die a painful death. How much did she know? As aContinue reading “Mary, Did You Know?”
