Pieces



Anyone who has children has probably experienced, "the big box of puzzle pieces"...

With time and living...
3 to 4 complete pictures wears down into...
A big box of of incomplete...mismatched...puzzle pieces...

Figuratively... I am there.

I'm not sure about putting all the pieces together again...

I usually throw out the literal box of pieces when we get to that point.

  1. This is a bad analogy. You need a paradigm shift! God is in control. Our lives are His big picture and He never loses ANY of His pieces! I know because He has picked me up again and again whenever I have fallen off the table, and put me back into the picture. All we have to do is to admit that "He" is the one putting the picture together, and we are simply the pieces that are moved by Him. Feelings are fleeting, unreliable things. Look back and see how God has been taking care of you and those that you love. One of your many gifts is "common sense"; (just like Helen!)As a common-sense person; look at the facts.....pull up your boot-straps, and reach out for your Heavenly Father's arms! I love you so much!!! He loves you more!

We became that way because of our heart, soul, and passion for what we do. That’s why we remember those days that may have gone forgotten! My Entry: My Most Memorable Experience as a Nurse One day years ago in central NY State I received what seemed to be a simple Home Health (HH) Nursing referral. My new patient (pt) was described as an elderly gentleman diagnosed with bilateral lower extremity cellulitis. Upon arriving at his apartment, I noticed that...

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 ...
