I’m Ashamed …
… of this “president.”
And I’m embarrassed for the United States.
Trump is Insane Evil Personified.
May his arrogant, horrific destruction of our wonderful nation be stopped. Be stopped. Be stopped.
Lord in Your Mercy, Hear our Prayer.
So For …
So for this Sunday evening before Thanksgiving, I was thinking about what the holiday is actually all about and ran across this little meditation on giving thanks and embracing gratitude …
Not-So-Silent Sunday. 3/10/24
Heroes for Today
Standing up for Truth and Justice
Long live the voice of protest against oppression.
Thanksgiving Night Reflection
ouch … Ouch … OUCH.
Some truths are so uncomfortable.
A Label-Free World (for 2018)
Hello out there. I did this blog post quite a while ago, but thought in today’s adversarial political and cultural environment, it might be relevant. We (okay, I!) judge others much too quickly.
Let’s try, in this new year with relatively few mistakes in it so far, to give each other the benefit of the doubt, to refuse to label somebody or some thing based on initial interactions or our preconceived notions.
What an incredible truth! (And, oh gosh, how it indicts me.)
I LOVE this short video about labeling:

2018: A Label-Free Year (at least for you and me).
HH – Holiday Happiness
It’s Sunday night. December 28. Three days after the big day. Christmas gifts and meals are opened and eaten.
Just a few more days left in 2014.
Sometimes there’s a bit of a letdown after the glitter is gone.
So … what is there to be Happy About? Especially if you’re alone? Or sick? Or frustrated? Or angry? Or not where you wanna be?
To be honest, I don’t know.
BUT I encourage you to do this: Go on a Gratitude Rampage. Start listing — or just thinking about — what you have to be grateful for as 2014 wanes.
Go ahead — try it. Make a list.
Here’s a tad of mine:
1. Air to breathe.
2. Legs that help me to walk.
3. Imperfect family members.
4. A mind that allows me to think.
5. Shoes.
6. Eyesight.
7. Collard greens (I just sautéed some for dinner).
8. Music.
9. Sunshine.
10. Cinnamon.
11. Grandchildren.
12. People who know my name.
13. Insurance.
14. Roaring laughter.
15. Pecans.
This list could go on and on.
May peace, joy and love be your portion now and forever!
Gratitude is powerful. Try it and see how it makes you feel.
