The labyrinth at White’s Chapel United Methodist Church, located at 185 S White Chapel Blvd, Southlake, TX 76092 was one of my absolute favorites (definitely a top 3 choice so far). And yippee…. another double play! Three lessons walking it in, and three lessons walking it out. So as before, I split this walk and its…
I decide to use this scripture as a Faith Focus because it’s intriguing to me that God would invite Ahaz to ask for a sign. So often, we are discouraged from doubting God or questioning his plans or intentions…. as if to do so makes us horrible (and sinful) people. It implies that he…
Today’s Therapy Thursday is short and sweet, since lessons don’t need to be long to be impactful. A University of Minnesota study showed that touch increases trust. Of course, it is implied that ‘touch’ in this context refers to a good touch, a welcome touch and an appropriate touch. So, how do you break past…
Healthy Connection & Relationships are Important Being an imperfect person is hard. No matter how badly I might want to get it right in relationships- intimate, family, professional or otherwise, there are times I fail – sometimes miserably. Do I wish I could do better? Yes, oh yes. Would input and resource from professionals help?…
And that is what I want to write about today… the ripple effect and consequences of toxic relationships- especially toxic family relationships. And they lived happily ever after… Image by Clker-Free-Vector-Images from Pixabay Fairy tales ended like that, and it was automatically assumed that they went on to be the stereotypical family with two…
Today’s labyrinth lessons came from a labyrinth walk I did on December 3, 2021 at the Dallas College Richland Campus, located at 12800 Abrams Road; Dallas, Texas 75243. Located just north of Fannin Hall on the campus of Dallas College Richland campus, this was one of the larger labyrinths I have had a chance to walk. It was also one…
I can’t decide if I like the NIV or NKJV interpretation better… Giving up versus losing heart… They essentially mean the same thing, but one speaks more to the spirit, or about the ‘heart’ of the choosing to do good things. It is, in my opinion, a reminder of the importance of perseverance. 9 And let…
12/3, 12:55 pm SMU Perkins School of Theology 5915 Bishop Blvd Dallas, Texas 75205 (Kirby Hall) This was my second labyrinth walk of the day. I was surprised that this labyrinth didn’t have the same profound effect of JOY that the labyrinth at Unitarian Universalist Church Oak Cliff. There was just something about that place…
Star Light, Star Bright ‘Star light, star bright,First star I see tonight,I wish I may, I wish I might,Have this wish I wish tonight.’ by Anonymous All of us can remember a wish, or a prayer we’ve made… In fact, several probably come to mind. On a lighter note, I can think of several spankings…
Hold on to the memories!
Thanks for popping over to my blog (or Facebook page…or wherever it is you are finding me). 2022 has been a year of change for many of us, in big and small ways. Many of you probably saw (on Facebook) that I quit my job in April 2022. After 26 years with Alaska USA FCU,…
