okay not to know

You don’t have to have all the answers today. Well, that’s a *&^%$%^  relief, isn’t it? Because I certainly don’t have all the answers. Today. It’s okay to not know right now. Which is good. Because I do not know. So much. Right now. Last week I had one of those weeks. One of those, please … More okay not to know

go ahead and jump

Go ahead and jump. Sometimes you have to jump off the cliff. Into the unknown. It’s dark. It’s frightening. And it makes no sense. But it’s the only way. We’ve all heard that, of course. The speeches. The encouragements. Those quotes we pin on our Pinterest boards. [If you still utilize Pinterest. I don’t all … More go ahead and jump

signs of the timing

Sometimes everything makes perfect sense. At least to me inside my brain. I am at one of those points currently and I’m a little afraid. Because at some point I’ll reveal some of my thoughts to someone who will try to ixnay my plan[s]. Confirmation though. Yesterday I had one of those moments. Everything becoming just … More signs of the timing

new

 The plant on my work desk is starting to blossom. I photographed it today. Interestingly, I came across this card hanging in my coworker’s office today as well. He’s actually my supervisor. I noticed it when he was talking to me about something important. Don’t worry David [that’s his name]. I was listening. Really. I am not … More new

changeup

If you are a regular to my blog, you perhaps noticed I have changed the design. In other words, it looks different. I have recently acquired an office at work. As in my own office. I…..am…..so…..excited! Mainly because I have never, ever had my own office. Now I can live without fear of people lifting … More changeup

settle

Break my heart for what breaks yours.  Everything I am for Your Kingdom’s cause.   An old worship song.  One I haven’t listened to in a long while.  Yet one line keeps going through my head.  Break my heart for what breaks yours. Breakmyheartforwhatbreaksyours.  Breakmyheartforwhatbreaksyours. I’ve thought so much these last months that I don’t belong … More settle

event[ful]

A busy week.  The busiest of 2014, actually. A fairly normal Monday.  Tuesday I tried a book group.  Should I have been an English teacher?  Maybe. Should I start my own book club and re-read The Sound and the Fury?  Maybe. Wednesday….The day before my workplace’s biggest yearly event.  Much work.  Deadlines.  I followed through … More event[ful]

mail

Yesterday’s mail was a bit bizarre.  Not that I received anything odd, in and of itself.  Here’s the rundown: I received an expected and much anticipated small package from my daughter, a foreign exchange student who currently resides in the Czech Republic. Secondly, the mail contained a large envelope addressed to my daughter from Reed … More mail

state of religion

I reminded myself today I live in the state of Kentucky because of religion.  Due to the fact our family moved here a bit over 10 years ago to work in a church.  And even way before that, in 1991, I moved here with my husband so he could attend Asbury Theological Seminary.  If I’m honest, … More state of religion
