Have you ever noticed that the sky isn’t harmed by the clouds that pass by? Whether the day is gray and bleak, or bright blue with wispy tendrils of clouds, the sky remains unchanged.
We can learn to be this way with our own feelings. No matter what’s going on around us, through the cultivation of awareness and mindfulness of the moments we can establish a place within us that is stable, unchanging.
The next time when the world Read more…
As a ferocious wave of heat and irritation threatens to overwhelm me, Scott leans in for a kiss and protracted hug at 7:30 this morning before heading out for work. His loving touch feels like a woolen blanket smothering me.
“Stop it,” I bark at him in a tone that even I don’t recognize, “or at least make it quick and don’t linger!!”
“Believe me, Honey, I won’t”, Scott retorted and sullenly headed towards the door.
His mood already dampened even my reassuring yelp of “I love you!” Read more…

I am a smoker and have been for more than 30 years, and the buzz I have been hearing about the new electric Cigarette has me more than a little interested.

If not only for the health benefits to myself, but for the benefit of others around me, because this cigarette does NOT emit any second hand smoke! Read more…
As I sit at my patio table and gaze out across my backyard, I hear the constant roar of a nearby highway in one ear, and the ever changing rumbling of the main drag through town in the other. It isn’t until I stop to contemplate these things though, that they really come alive to me. Thankfully, I have become accustomed to them on the whole.
Soon I forget about the not so distant ‘noise’ and begin to tune into the children’s laughter Read more…

When my computer broke the last time, I had to have the whole hard drive wiped clean, to basically start from scratch. That Read More...

I was wrong and I will be the first to admit it. When Scott proposed that we take this our Illinois-to-Colorado vacation in an RV I was more than a little bit hesitant. This gigantic apartment on wheels belonged to my now deceased father-in-law and since my surviving mother-in-law does not drive, it just sat helplessly on their driveway for the past few years.
This thing is a monster. Long and sleek, featuring a bathroom with shower, full bed, couch, microwave, air conditioning, flat screen TV, DVD player and more. Far from roughing Read more…
“The Bible commands us to forgive others when they have wronged us and to seek forgiveness when we have wronged others. We must do this to follow the example of God, who extends to us the ultimate pardon– forgiveness of our sins.”
Can any sin be forgiven? We think that there must be some sin too great to be forgiven.

“Forgiveness is not based on the magnitude of the sin, but the magnitude of the forgiver’s love. No sin is Read more…
