Sigh . . .

Something to think about as we watch and hear about the events that unfold throughout our world.  Meanwhile . . .


Winter begins on the 21st according to my calendar but this morning the winds are howling, the ocean is wild and the storm is here with all signs of winter weather.    We may be missing one or two  family members come Christmas morning all because of weather.   There was a huge pile up of cars on one of our highways yesterday due to a semi jackknifing and creating a horrid mess of piled up cars.    Hopefully it was fender benders and no lives lost.  Son Michael is watching the weather as he tells me it is eleven degrees and snowing up in Nevada.    Granddaughter Erin is watching the weather also.  As much as we want them here with us;  we also don't want them on the road in such stormy weather. It is the time for inclement weather . . . a nice word for damn right nasty weather out there. 

The pictures of some of my followers has been removed as we lost one of the members and I didn't want to have a reminder on the screen as it could bring about sadness and tears for the departed soul who has gone on to infinity.  

Meanwhile we struggle on, and that each of us will improve our lives and survive the hopelessness of death  and live in faith, hope and love for our own future.     Some one once said 'we are written in the book' . . . when it is our turn to walk the garden path  . . . hopefully some time off as we have much to do, and it starts today . . . use your seconds wisely.

Start with keeping Christ in Christmas.     Light your candles and sit quietly in a church of your choosing and you will hear silence and be able to sort out all of the troubled nuances that are circling your mind.    Christmas is a new beginning, a winter solstice that reminds us that one small babe came into our world and lit the sky up with a star that shines bright and shows us the way to use our seconds .    You have things to do today . . . start with the smile in your eyes and open up those arms as there are so many waiting for a hug.    Hugs to all.
