I think my most favorite song in the world is Unwritten by Natasha Bedingfield. Part of the chorus goes like this: This week is the week of Pentecost, the birthday of the Christian church according to the story in the second chapter of the book of Acts in the Bible. It was the day that […]
Category: Life in General
Stuff I’ve written about life in general.
Goals
I used to be very good about setting intentions and goals on the first of the month and then seeing how many of them I accomplished. But then, I got too ambitious and eventually was getting to the point where I would only achieve half of the goals I set for myself. Life is funny […]
Trails and faith
I like to hike. And while I often revisit the familiar, I also like to explore places in my little swath of the Midwest that are new to me. But sometimes, the paths meander and I get lost, like we all do. I find I have to retrace my steps and find the correct trail. […]
Aren’t you done yet?
It should not be a surprise to any regular readers of this blog that I love to hike and geocache. I often talk about how these adventures inspire my stories. And there is truth to that statement if you read ANY of my stories. That’s a hint, by the way…. I recently finished a challenge […]
Coming soon – A new serial novel!
My magical and wonderful readers, instead of the usual reflection fare I post on Thursday mornings, I give you an introduction to my newest serial novel, set to debut in June. Several years ago, I wrote a novel for the now defunct National Novel Writing Month. It was the first time I ever attempted NaNoWriMo […]
May the Force be with you
I’m not much of a Star Wars fan. I’ve watched some of the movies multiple times (mainly the original trilogy since, well, I am a child of the 80s) and have seen a few of the other things. But I am not a diehard fan like some of my friends and family members are. That […]
The magic remains
The world is a bit less brighter this week, at least here in my little swath of the Midwest. The magic that sparkled has lost its luster, though it remains. My friend Rick has completed his courageous battle with cancer. It wasn’t the completion many were hoping for, but it was the completion that was […]
Wonder and Awe
Easter Sunday was this past Sunday. I have often marveled that the five themes of Advent; hope, peace, joy, love and light, are also in the story of the Resurrection. There is hope that there is more to the story than just death. It mixes with the despair of the crucifixion. There is peace in […]
Holy Week and Random Thoughts
I’ve been a bit unmotivated to sit at my computer and write this week. Well, I should say I’m unmotivated to write when the weather is nice outside and the sun is shining through the office windows that are still grimy and in desperate need of cleaning. But here I sit regardless, watching two of […]
When it becomes too much
I’m currently working on yet another story in my Portals Series. This one is the story of an elemental magician by the name of Taylor who discovers he needs to come to the aid of one of his best friends in life while trying to figure out where his own place is since he rebels […]
