Calling All Angels….
Entertaining Angels by the light of my TV screen; 24/7, You wait for me. Entertaining Angels by the time I fall to my knees; Host of Heaven, sing over me. ~ The Newsboys Ah, the thought of angels and demons… There is more literature written and more thought-provoking conversations that have taken place about this particular topic than perhaps any other. The spiritual world fascinates us because, bottom line, most of us simply don’t understand it. How can we reconcile the fact that all day, every day, while we are carrying on about our business, there is another level of activity...
Read MoreSomethin’ To Believe In….
Sometimes I wish I didn’t know now what I didn’t know then. ~ Bob Segar Knowledge is power. Yet there are some things that I truly wish I didn’t know. Yes, it is true that I am admittedly the “Information Girl”, but curiosity in human nature and in all kinds of information has led me to some discoveries that, in the long run, have hurt me to the point that true ignorance may have been a better option. But we are all human, and we don’t want to hurt. We don’t want to hear about the bad things that the world has to offer. We don’t want to dwell in negativity. And we...

Lean on me, when you’re not strong, and I’ll be your friend – I’ll help you carry on! ~ Bill Withers Life can just be too much – too much pain, too much drama, and too much to take. Part of that is our humanity; we take way too much on ourselves and become overburdened and stressed out. Some of it is just the way life rolls; we all have things that go wrong, and sometimes those things just keep coming in waves. Whatever the situation, the point is that life is hard. But what do we do when life gets to be too much? Do we shut down and shut everyone out? Do we simply smile...

Liars are fryers. Man, if that were true, I’d have been burnt toast many, many, MANY times over! I think that if there is one thing we have gotten good at as a society and as individuals, it’s lying – to our employers, to our children, to our significant others, and especially to ourselves. It’s like a hot dog vendor at a baseball games, “Lies! We got yer lies right here! Big ones, little ones, white ones, dark ones, and for a discounted price, we even got yer whoppers!” When I was about ten-years-old, I was visiting with extended family at my grandpa’s house. Now I...
Read MoreHonesty Is Such a Lonely Word
The pessimist complains about the wind; the optimist expects it to change; the realist adjusts the sails. ~ William Arthur Ward There is nothing wrong with being an optimist. You might annoy people because you are always upbeat and “perky”, but it’s cool to have a good outlook on life. And there is nothing wrong with being a pessimist, either – but you also might annoy people because of your gloom and doom mentality. A good middle-of-the-road place to be is realism. However, being a realist gets you into trouble in a different way; realists are very honest, and in a world that...
