Warrior Wednesday

Warriors See Roses

Years ago I learned an important lesson... Be glad the thorn bush has roses. A Warrior sees the roses. In the past, I have been known to see the negative in things... maybe even everything. I don't remember when, exactly, but one day I woke up and realized that the only thing I could change… Continue reading Warriors See Roses

Adulting 101: Crisis

I hear a lot of whining these days.  It seems that many young people believe others are out to get them...  Or, they believe life isn't fair.  Dude!  The fair is in August. I don't get it.  I keep hearing the same childish behaviors from little people, teens and even young adults; behavior such as… Continue reading Adulting 101: Crisis

#bethelight – Day 198

Today I had a lovely drive to the airport with baby from an uddermudder.  We talked all the way.  I realized, well remembered, that sometimes all a person needs is a listening ear.  I don't need to give advice.  I just need to listen... and then give a little advice.  (cheesy grin).  Love you Sis!

Today was an unplanned act of kindness.  I came out a local business and saw a man digging through the trash.  He asked for money.  i didn't have any.  I brushed him off and walked to my car.  As I got in, I noticed the blue berries I had packed for lunch.  A little voice… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 194
