A Caring Lent - Week 3

We are now well into the Lent season. Between the Coronavirus, the elections and just plain living, I have found it hard to focus on Lent. Too much is coming at me from too many different places. When I noticed this, I stopped for a second, and took a step back to observe what I was thinking, what I was doing and what is truly important to me. What I discovered was that I need to make sure that I take time to center on my faith - everyday. It is what grounds me. It is what

A Caring Lent Weeks 1 and 2

For Lent 2020 Henrieta and I decided to create the theme - A Caring Lent. We wanted to focus on taking on one small thing each day to help us care for ourselves, our communities and our environment. We started on Ash Wednesday, February 26th. So here is a short overview of my experience so far. February 26th the invitation was to choose one of these words to focus on for the day. Rebirth, Renew or Refresh. I chose the word refresh. The definition of refresh is, give new stre

Spreading Joy

When I was leaving the health club a few days ago, a mom and her young son were just coming in. The boy was dancing down the hall. When I saw him, I could not help but smile. He was so full of joy and happiness. He didn’t seem to have a care in the world. The boy danced across my path. As they were walking past and the mom said to her son, what do you say? I have the feeling she was looking for him to apologize for cutting in front of me. He did not do that. What he did do wa

Support and Care

This week Henrieta and I attend a SCORE conference for women entrepreneurs. SCORE is an organization sponsored by the SBA (small business administration) that provides mentoring and education for businesses. The goal of SCORE is to help people be successful in their business. The community that we have found in SCORE leaders and the other entrepreneurs has supported, educated and guided us. Henrieta and I don’t think we would still be in business if it was not for the SCORE c

In Community

When my husband and I are traveling, we enjoy visiting local churches. I love experiencing all the different ways people worship. Recently we attended a church at the campground where we were staying. The service was outside and the day was absolutely beautiful. The sun was shining; the day was warm and a cool breeze floated by at the perfect time. I just need to say, worshiping outside in God’s beautiful world is awesome! I need to find ways to do it more often. We were ble

The 2nd Half

I have been married for 38 years. I can not believe it, 38 years! I have lived with my husband longer than anyone else in my life. In that 38 years I have evolved a lot, all of it in community with my husband (poor guy!). I have been through hellos and goodbyes. Hellos, in the form of new life, the birth of my three amazing children, new friends, and new communities. Goodbyes, in the death of, parents, close relatives and friends, and people moving away.
