I fought(with myself) for more than six months. Looking around the house at all the THINGS neatly in place, too much space, looking into nobody’s face, is not what I want. God, please help me?
When I ask God to help me, HE always does. My task is to get myself out of my own way; Let Go and Let God. Ahh, Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus, just to take Him at His word.
For the first time in my life, I argued with God. I said, “I understand the scriptures Lord, but that’s too hard”. I’m thinking, I couldn’t possible give away everything: furs, jewels, clothes (oh the clothes), art, furniture, household item, my new cookware, gifts, pictures of my Son and my Mom.
We’ll talk about it later, God.
Are you really sure you want to do it?
Can you do it?
The answers for me are: YES and Yes!
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
Boy, it seems like ages since last I wrote. What the heck, it has been ages! A lot has happened (we’ll talk about that later); I’m bursting to talk about everything, but today I’m starting with a resurrected story from May 2017, that is being presented as current events in order to keep “you know what ” going. So, I decided to start with this nonsense of a segregated graduation at Harvard, which, for the record, is not true. From my understanding, Afro American students wanted to highlight the difficulty in getting admitted, studying and eventually graduating from a prestigious school. They wanted to highlight the fact that graduating is difficult even for students from affluent situations but, just that much more difficult for students who have been marginalized. The ceremony was intended to show others in similar situations, that if you too work hard and apply yourself, regardless of where you come from or what you look like, you can make it. It was that simple. Is that truly so hard to understand?
I was taught this song in “public School” and I remember the words to this day. This is my country; Land and of my birth!
This is my country; Grandest on earth!
NEW WORD
TrumPence- The amount of return on investment on a con job.
The very high price, not just monetarily, but personally, paid for something that’s worthless.
Trump Pence means “Fart Penny” over in the UK.
Any act of bewildering ignorance and/or nonsensical hatred
The slow feeling of regret after realization that a decision was a HUGE mistake.
Prince has been found dead at his recording studios in Minneapolis.
Us gossip site TMZ reports police were called to Paisley Park on Thursday morning and his publicist has now confirmed the 57-year-old star’s death.
Carver County Chief Deputy Jason Kamerud said police responded to a medical call at 9.43am and the crime lab and medical examiner are on scene.
A reporter from local TV station KSTP, Farrah Fazal, tweeted this afternoon: “BREAKING: Deputies say they are now doing “death investigation” at Prince’s PaisleyPark recording studios near Minneapolis. @ KSTP.”
Of course, you can’t learn to paint in just one lesson. But a fine gentleman, named Angus, surely “New” how to make it look like I could. My “Maestro” was patient, helpful and observant. He took me outside, had me look to the “heavens” and see the real cloud composition with their different shades of white and gray. Can you tell which one is his and which is mine?
A friend told me that I needed a blog. So, here I am and here you are! Thank you and make yourself at home in my bloghome. I like things that make me smile. Laughter is even better. We can get to know each other better, by sharing stories, health tips, work and our families. You will get to meet some of my family and we will have a great time. We can do some shopping, share recipes and talk about world events. When time comes to get serious, we’re going to do that too!
