Something to Share

Hey Y'all! The southern side of me keeps popping up lately. It's something I have been trying to hide to often. I still says my eh's? but there's definitely always been a little twang in me.

All that aside, it's somewhat appropriate since I wanted to share a blog post with you that's written by a dear woman from the US of A.

As I was avoiding writing this paper, that is somehow magically going to become 10 pages because I have no more academic writing abilities left in me, I saw that Bithiah had posted something new on her blog. Since I've always loved her writing I decided I should check it out, since I was procrastinating I had even more motivation to do so. I'm so glad I did.

I had the pleasure of getting to know Bithiah, or as I know her Veto, through camp. Just this morning I was looking through some pictures from the camp years and there was her beautiful, smiling face. She was always able to make us ladies laugh at camp, I know that as a camp staff we had more than a few moments of hilarity thanks to her.

But humour aside, this woman is a beautiful writer. Whenever I need a moment of humility her blog is one of the many I will check in on or remind myself of. I think that you will enjoy it as well.

Here's what she posted:

    Thanks for being a reader and a writer. Miss you. Hope you're doing well, though by the two "I love Rob" posts I just read, it sounds like you are! ;)

Day 6- Passages that have Impacted/Encouraged Me

 I have to try really hard not to begin these posts with "so". Apparently, that is my go to starter word...which is odd but true. I skipped yesterday due to the cold that was taking each member of our house captive one by one. Why is it never all at once? Sometimes this feels it would be easier than this long, drawn out affair we have been experiencing. Our youngest has had a fever for the past two days and while at first she handled it like a champ she, like all of us, only had so much to give before she just decided the whole being sick things sucks and is no over it. Anyway, I skipped yesterday and considered skipping today as well but then I felt like I wasn't really challenging myself then. So this might be another lighter post but the point was for me to write every day not write something groundbreaking every day (or ever!). So, when I looked at my list of things one that stuck out to me was Bible verses that have impacted me. I think that even if you aren't a

Starting Again

 Here we go again. I've decided (once again) that I really need and want to start writing again. How is this going to happen with one kid that won't leave my side and another that is pretty indifferent to sleep? I'm not sure but I'm going to try. I'm never entirely sure where to start when I start writing again. Do I follow prompts? Just write whatever the heck I want? A combination of the two? I've considered starting writing again without any connection to who I am...to allow myself to write more freely. Right now that thought is still on the table to be honest. I think the greater growing experience for me, however, would be to put myself in a situation where I journey let go of the pressure and expectations I put on myself for my writing to be something "spectacular" and to just write. Basically, I think what I'm going to do is an advent calendar of writing. Leading up to Christmas, for 25 days, I'm going to commit to writing something. It

My heart

I’ve been having a blast writing these blogs recently. I hope the 10 or so of you who read them are also having a blast reading them. :P  I had forgotten how much joy I get out of writing, for years it has been the way that I connected to God best, and also for a year or so it’s something I’ve stayed away from, for a variety of reasons. But that’s a blog post for another time, maybe tomorrow? ;) Or perhaps when I feel that’s the direction God is guiding my typing fingers.  My spiritual director and I were talking the other week about “Kairos” moments, which means in ancient Greek, loosely translated, a right or opportune moment. Or in the context her and I were talking about, the way that we best connect with God. So, in a sense, the opportune moments for us to connect with God. Make sense? When she asked what my kairos moment(s) was/were I didn’t have to think twice.  Being with people, encouraging people, really TALKING with people, asking the “How’s your heart?” questi
