A Standard of Excellence

Sometimes, the most profound thoughts come to me at the most mundane times. Perhaps the still monotony of performing very ordinary tasks unclog the channel through which God communicates with me.

Recalculating the Options

I ran across something recently and decided it had some merit. I hope you will stir up the cobwebs of your minds and see whether you agree. At least we can have a nice discussion.

Personality - How to Practice Yours

OK, ok, I know many of my readers looked askance at this blog’s title. You think I don’t know you, but I do. Just let me assuage your eyebrows-raised, lips pursed questioning.

Well, hello there! Come on in…

I’m glad to see you. Did you find us okay? Come in, come in. Kick your shoes off and have a seat. What? Oh, yes, all the seats recline. When you get (harrumph) of a certain age, (cough, cough) one finds that convenience and ease hold the winning hand.

Did you ever get started reading a specific type of book, or a certain author’s books, and wish you could put them all in your blog for the whole world to see? Of course, if I got to do that, then I’d probably get sued for plagiarism. But being down and out for the count isn’t all “doom and gloom and agony on me.” (See earlier blogs to get caught up with my falls and surgeries, etc.) Because when you’re laid up, you can always read! Yay!!!

WHAT SEEK YE?

A rip-roaring good morning {or whatever time you might check your email.} As I sit here at my machine, I can look out over a lawn devoid of hummingbirds, and see only the “regular” (sigh) bird feeders.

What a beautiful time of year we are entering! The sun is shining brightly, squirrels are rustling through the fallen leaves, and even as they hide their little treasures, they are preparing for a coming harvest- Waste not, want not!. You want to say, “God’s in His heaven and all’s right with the world!”

Sometimes we enter our adventures from human error or lack of knowledge, thus it began of our own volition. Sometimes we enter on our adventures from an outside source, as when we get lost due to someone giving us the wrong directions. Sometimes, grand adventures just happen. We don’t need to try to carry guilt or blame to please someone else.

Sometimes I open my mouth and words somehow just come spilling out. It’s really kind of scary, in a way, because suddenly, you have put into other people’s ears your own thoughts. And sometimes you might not even know you really thought that! (Like when someone is thinking and suddenly has to ask himself, “Did I say that out loud?” If that’s not scary, then let me know, but I think it is.)
