Learning my lessons

When we believe that God gives us what we need when we need it we often overlook the fact that it includes the lessons in life we need to grow in spirit as well as the many blessings He bestows in our life.

I have many roads left to travel and many seasons yet to experience and learn from the lessons that unfold along my path. May I be a better person with each step along the way.

Nothing is random

I have finally come to realize, after these many long years, that nothing is random or merely coincidence. Everything has meaning that will be revealed in time, and is all part of our personal and collective journey.  A journey of love, life, discovery, growth, and faith.

Blessings Grow

I am so grateful for my friends and the blessings they bring into my life. That we are there for each other in the hard times as well as the good times. That we share our laughter and tears, ups and downs, joys and burdens.

We also share our prayers and our faith. They are more family than friends. We have created a chain of love as well as prayers and through God they are answered.  Blessing grow in love.

Beautiful Blessing

Each day is a beautiful blessing and a gift not to be taken for granted but to be embraced and consciously enjoyed for it will not come again.

Indistinct Shadows

I was up before the sky lightened, me, the stars, and the moon seemed to be all there was in the first hour of early morning, almost as indistinct as the shadows cast in moonlight.

Unconstrained

Alone I wait for rain
to wash away my tears
and cleanse my pain
of my forgotten years
memories unconstrained
fuel my growing fears
that I can't contain

Losing Sleep

There are times we all wake up in the middle of the night. The beauty of it here in the mountains is really something to see. The panorama of stars like a multitude of diamonds spread out on black velvet in varying sizes winking and blinking as the light picks up their many facets. With such beauty spread before me, filling my soul with awe, losing a bit of sleep is well worth the price.
