leaving behind a legacy of life lived in joyful abandon to you

April 10, 2010

It was a story of love, tragedies and sacrifices, simple living, family – . . . → Read More: leaving behind a legacy of life lived in joyful abandon to you

my business… your way… please….

7 April 2010

Well, today is the 24 hour release of the EBK (Empire Building Kit) at www.chrisguillebeau.com. And I have seriously considered purchasing it, at least the starter level. But I’m just not sure.

My God and I … belief in Who rather than in what

4 April 2010

Woke up at 3:30 am, humming a song I haven’t heard in years, but which I understand, in a personal way, far more now than I did in the past.

My God And I

My God and I go in the field together;
We walk and talk as good friends should and do;
We clasp our hands, . . . → Read More: My God and I … belief in Who rather than in what

Good Friday… or rather, Joyous Resurrection!

April 2, 2010

It’s Good Friday… and outside, a bleak, gray, windy, chilly, sometimes splattery day. Perhaps the weather is appropriate for a day that many set aside for remembering perhaps the darkest moment in mankind’s history. And yet – it is “Good” because without that dark moment there would be no resurrection – and . . . → Read More: Good Friday… or rather, Joyous Resurrection!

Intentional day of rest… following my heart… de-facebooking…

INTENTIONAL DAY OF REST, FOLLOWING MY HEART, DE-FACEBOOKING…

March 14, 2010

After I came home this morning from street church, I was reading a “secular-ish” article (maybe a zen-ish type article, lol !?!). Anyway, it was lauding the attributes of an intentional day of rest – so I decided to start (again) today.

Some interesting ways You’ve been talking to me!

5 March 2010

Woke up 4:20 am. Spent some time sitting by hubby in front of the TV watching a bit of Stargate… then checked face book… and sent an email or two… then had a bit of breakfast… and then a shower… followed by a long soak in the tub: first real “bath” (other than . . . → Read More: Some interesting ways You’ve been talking to me!

When I woke this morning, my mind was really whirling, and I felt like I was totally in the middle of this huge storm with stuff flying all around me… and then I said, “Dear Papa…” and instantly I was in this circle of perfect calm!
