A Warrior Lives for Today!

The holidays are like a race way.  Days go speeding by.  You think you may have a free day and you want to make the most of it... You find yourself thinking of the days when you would wake up and just "be."  You find yourself happy about the sunshine, singing to yourself.  You want… Continue reading A Warrior Lives for Today!

A Warrior Trusts God

Today for Warrior Wednesday I decided to go with a bunch of memes. I find this is to be a truth for most of us.  We want to see before we make a move in new directions.  Faith is stepping, then seeing. A Warrior trusts God. This is the real truth.  When we are brave,… Continue reading A Warrior Trusts God

A Warrior Gets Back UP

Wouldn't it be nice if life was a straight line?  No ups.  No downs.  Just straight.  Right? Life has ups and downs. When you are down you notice it most.  When you are down you tend to think you are the problem, that you did something wrong, and "karma" is swinging for you. What if… Continue reading A Warrior Gets Back UP

A Warrior Continues to Forgive

Once upon a time I thought that forgiveness indicated that whatever action a person did was acceptable.  This thought made forgiveness hard.  As I gain more understanding and wisdom, I realize that this is not forgiveness.  I am discovering that forgiveness is letting go.  Forgiving is an ongoing practice for me. A warrior forgives because… Continue reading A Warrior Continues to Forgive

A Warrior Never Looks Back

Everyone makes mistakes.  Life is all about choices… good, bad, and the ugly.  Right or wrong, your destiny will unfold according to the choices we make.  Why choose to live in the past where everything has already happened.  Why not embrace the current day?!  Today is a blessing, where everything is possible.  Trial and difficulties… Continue reading A Warrior Never Looks Back

Warriors Look Good in Pearls

Okay... not the most attractive picture.  It helps me make a point. The sea oyster, injured and irritated, places layers of its tear-like fluid called nacre over the damaging "grit" on its tongue. Slowly, over time (maybe even 5-6 years) this irritation, this hardship transforms into a breathtaking pearl! Poetic! The thing is... we all… Continue reading Warriors Look Good in Pearls

A Warrior Develops Inner Peace

I will admit.  I have lived many years not understanding that inner peace is my choice. "Peace of mind is not the absence of conflict from life, but the ability to cope with it." - Unknown A Warrior develops inner peace. I've had my share of ups and downs, disappointment and sadness. Perhaps I didn't… Continue reading A Warrior Develops Inner Peace

Creating a Warrior

I am not too sure how I feel about this statement.  I do think it is true. It is through our mistakes and the things we learning life that we develop into the warrior we are meant to be.  So... I think we are born to be warriors... we just forgot. It takes so much… Continue reading Creating a Warrior

A Warrior Spreads Light

Darkness cannot drive out darkness.  Only light can do that.  Hate cannot drive out hate.  Only love can do that. - Martin Luther King Jr. I am sure you have noticed... We live in a fallen and broken world.  Isn't it enough that many are suffering from natural disasters, the effects of crime, homelessness, broken… Continue reading A Warrior Spreads Light

A Warrior Works to Do What is Right

I have been obsessing over this thought in recent days.  I think it is because I am finding it harder and harder to find fellow warriors.  I mainly see soldiers... people who drift along with the crowd. A Warrior WORKS hard. Sadly, I am seeing a generation of lemmings... little soldiers matching around being told… Continue reading A Warrior Works to Do What is Right
