It has nearly been a year of me looking for ways I can be kinder. I can't say I am actually a successfully kinder person. However, the effort to be kinder than necessary is helping me to see others as God sees them. That is something.

Struggling to Eat Healthy with a Busy Schedule
I started the week doing a decent job recording my meals via a photo. Then.... it all fell apart. Got too busy with getting the show ready for tech. As tech neared I found it harder and harder to get meals, let alone, take a picture. All I can say is, I did my best… Continue reading Struggling to Eat Healthy with a Busy Schedule
#bethelight – Day 339 and 340
Wow... with a week to go before the opening of Mamma Mia at my high school, I barely get time at home. It is hard to blog. It is hard sleep. It's hard to get "real" food. However, I am working my tail off to be patient and to help these hard working kids and… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 339 and 340
Keeping Busy!
The week has been extra busy this week. Last weekend was packed! Lilli went on a school field trip to Ashland to see two great Shakespeare shows. She road the bus with a some of her friends.

Theatre Helps a Person Discover Who They Are
Theatre has always been a place of self discovery for me. It has been a place where I could make sense of the world around me. Everyday I help out with the theatre program in my local school. Every day I see kids get out of their superficial cellular lives and start interacting with others,… Continue reading Theatre Helps a Person Discover Who They Are
#bethelight – Day 335

Perhaps the real act of kindness is to take the things that are hard to hear… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 335
Warriors are Willing to Row
I came across this proverb and it rang true with me. I am learning that when something worthwhile is not coming easy for me, like most things, I can't panic. It's all part of the plan. In fact, I am learning that pretty much nothing comes easy. It is not meant to be easy. Most… Continue reading Warriors are Willing to Row
#bethelight 334 and 335
The last couple of days I have done a ton of listening... mostly to stressed out teens. I am realizing that I am often needed to be a "mom" at school to many kids who don't get to see their mom or have mom with so many issues they can't help their kids. However, my… Continue reading #bethelight 334 and 335
