MY LAST BREATH…AGAIN
ALL OF LIFE IS A STEWARDSHIP FOR WHAT LIES BEYOND! EVERY BREATH MIGHT BE THE LAST ONE. That is not cause for fear but for renewed purpose. Death is certain. The percentages are perfect. It is one common experience we will all share. Death is not funny, but a little humor can ease some ofContinue reading “MY LAST BREATH…AGAIN”
A Knight in Shining Armor…Again
It was the night I became the Knight in Shining Armor. I slew the dragon. I beat up the monster. I scared away all the ghosts. And I saved the lovely maiden. I won her heart…again. Our beautiful young daughter won my heart at our first meeting. As I pulled back the blanket to getContinue reading “A Knight in Shining Armor…Again”
DARK IS THE NIGHT…AGAIN
It happened again. This was the worst. The darkness began to press in. Press down. Press all around. It was not the darkness of night. It was that darkness of the soul which battles and baffles us all. Some more than others. My soul cried. I prayed for the darkness to disperse or, at least,Continue reading “DARK IS THE NIGHT…AGAIN”
FALLING on the ICE…AGAIN
It happened again. This was the worst. About this time last year, I fell on the ice and cracked my hip. It was very painful, but I survived. So did my stupidity. This season, I had a foolproof plan to carefully scrape the ice off my car windows. Everything was going fine…until I stepped toContinue reading “FALLING on the ICE…AGAIN”

I hope you neverContinue reading “I HOPE YOU DANCE…AGAIN”
GOD SHOWED UP…AGAIN!
(Subtitle: The Rock Where God Changed My Life) It was a big rock sheltered by tall pine trees gently swaying beneath a summer midnight sky brightened by a full moon. God set me on a rock…and God showed up again. In the stillness of that moment, my life was changed…forever…again. I was nineteen. Although manyContinue reading “GOD SHOWED UP…AGAIN!”
MY BIRTHDAY BUCKET LIST
One of my recent birthday greetings came with a question: “What type of plans does one make when he gets to your advanced age?” I immediately texted a reply. “Throw away the old Bucket List and start a new one.” Bucket List—things a person hopes to do or achieve during their lifetime. Where do youContinue reading “MY BIRTHDAY BUCKET LIST”
FAKE NEWS The John Harvard Statue
HARVARD UNIVERSITY STATUE HAS BEEN REDESIGNED TO CELEBRATE ITS LEAST DISTINGUISHED GRADUATE! That is not the first use of “Fake News” at Harvard. The John Harvard Statue’s inscription states: John Harvard, Founder, 1638. That Harvard Yard icon is the most photographed place of the historic university I attended many years ago. It is also aContinue reading “FAKE NEWS The John Harvard Statue”
GRUMBLING & GRATITUDE
Grumbling and Gratitude. I wrote an article about that last year. This week I read a post on that subject by Scott Sauls. My immediate reaction was to GRUMBLE because his writing was much better. I share this with you out of GRATITUDE to God who knew I needed the reminder. I think it willContinue reading “GRUMBLING & GRATITUDE”
