Everything Changes…

Change is Life in Forward Motion…

I embrace life’s changes… but sometimes I grieve the loss related to change.

Seasons Change…the hue of the Autumn Leaves is breathtaking… the blank canvas of Winter allows for a fresh Spring start… and Summer brings the family together for backyard barbeques and adventurous vacations.

Close relationships can become “loose” over time, situations and distance.

Loved ones supplement the quality of the world we live in…then die leaving “holes” that cannot be filled.

Seeds become plants that produce flowers and fruit then shrivel and turn brown.

Quaint towns become urban driving nightmares.

Weekly family dinners evolve into occasional telephone calls and yearly visits.

Warm welcomes change to respectfully correct interactions and the cool feeling that the “Connection” has been lost.

Nostalgic family homesteads become a battle of property rights… destroying the very principles that the family was built on.

Innocence Matures to Understanding as Life’s Cycle Rolls Forward…

Substantially “Connecting” with people and with the world around me is what makes me, me… without connection there is no me… processing altered connections is hard and emotional but part of my journey…

Balancing the “Change” perception…

Strained, turbulent child: parent relationships mature into deep, caring supportive reliances.

Pictures capture a visual image that can preserve a moment in time to cherish forever.

The blessings of grandchildren…

The blessing of finding a committed companion for the duration of life…

Processing a “Matured Understanding” and developing “Peace Within”

Letting go… being alright with the journey as it unfolds.

Emotional Catharsis

Life Unscripted As previously mentioned we recently spent a few weeks in my hometown area related to my oldest daughter's wedding. The wedding day came and went without issue. My baby girl was a beautiful bride and is now a happy Mrs.to her Mr.. The second week of our time there was scheduled as "down time"... time to relax and enjoy visiting with friends and family. One day that second week I awoke feeling the need to re-connect with my past; to settle emotional "loose strings"; to change somethings about my life. We had traveled home in my husband's old manual stick shift F150 truck... kayak on top... back packed full of everything but the kitchen sink. I don't drive his truck as well as I should to go out on my own for the day, besides a good insightful partner would probably make my journey a little easier. I called my step-mom and she said she would be right over and take me wherever I needed to go. As I got ready to go my husband and my boys were ...

Long Time No Post

Life has been a whirlwind of activity, work, travel, family events and motion. While I embrace life in forward motion it is a special jewel when a moment of calm presents itself. So many people are caught in a whirlwind of, "life in motion" these days... As I talk with friends and family members my prayer list grows ever longer and my spirit can struggle to "focus on the positive"... In my heart I truly believe that focusing on the positive and working through the challenges is the best way to navigate this life. I have so very much that I am grateful for... so many blessings... God will help manage the rest:-)
