One "Sure" Day

I have always been a convergence to spontaneity. Its fervor works for me to a greater length as  thoughts glide into immediate rest. Sometimes, we just have to give to moment's treasure without a pause. It might just pass us by if we're not mindful and accepting.
A trip to Dallas with my  sister and my brother-in-law  just did that...driving 150 miles away from where you live is a form of catharsis and living for the moment. Not putting much thought about something is worth pedaling and seeing what's out there waiting.

"God's Wisdom"

        

                                 "Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is  noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable---if anything is excellent or praiseworthy---think about these things." Philippians 4:8
       

"More Than A Spring Break Hobby"

                             At Barnes & Noble Cafe'...the kind of "stuff" you see associated with me whenever I'm there for notorious reading. "Some things just never change in your psyche."

                                  A colleague, a friend and a sister in Christ. I'm so glad she joined me in a very short notice of my imposition. As it turned out, those shared "Spring" moments are divine blessings as conversations transpired to spiritual realm. I believe that it's your core responsibility how you nurture yourself to maturity in every way, especially your spiritual rhythm.
For one thing I'm certain, I'm blessed with a few friends that would stick with me through thick and thin. That I say, is a gift, a rare one.

"Happy National Grammar Day"

I'm actually very enthused that there is such a thing as "National Grammar Day" celebrated here in the U.S. I could only say that I'm one of those souls that gets a kick of its finest when I hear and read clean-slate usage of Grammar.
My favorite parts of speech are Verbs and Adjectives. I believe because Verbs are action words and they are the muscle of oral and written communication; and while Adjectives describe or modifiy people and things, they give us the sensual part of ourselves and everything around us...

"Love Never Fails..."

"How easily we get caught up in defining who we are in relation to those around us... I have lived enough in the world to know by now that this is how our ambitions often evolve. We first find ourselves alone in the joy of what we're doing. But somehow, there are suddenly others along the way, and we lapse into the breathless race of comparison, and then we are hopelessly running to avoid being termed a failure."---an excerpt in Mark Nepo's "The Book of Awakening"

"Above All..."

 Let Love Leads...
"We can always be certain of this: As we walk through time, doing our part and allowing the seasons of life to work great changes in us, the God who inhabits eternity walks at our side, doing His deeply transforming work."
Of this we can be sure: We are never left on our own!

Take Hold Of This Truth...
It's a gift of faith and hope to be able to trust that God is at work in our relationships, our families, our work, and even in our own hearts.  

Remember This...
Begin your journey with God.
Choose your traveling companions wisely.
Place high value on wisdom.
Leave your baggage behind.
Own your faults and weaknesses.
Embrace problems as gifts.
Take life as it comes.
Love God with all you are.

"For The Good Times..."

You ought to have a heart to remember this timeless piece of music...There is an urgency of sensibility and the metaphorical messages that drives you to listen time & time again.

"Why can't really anybody stay in one place anymore?" Or for one soul?
         I believe that to be true...We move & journey through life and it's a choice of the heart to change the course. Isn't that enabling to know that we have the power to change our circumstances  and not fret over it but do something about it?
I was reading this article in Psychology Today (Feb. issue) this afternoon @  my favorite bookstore: A well/established entrepreneur  resolved to quit his lucrative job without any  job to fall back on. Everybody that knows him wants his job. But his deepest impulses on this job confronted him uncertainty. For him, it was illogical to ignore these feelings of isolation.

He went on to say that he's no longer living someone else's idea of a wonderful life. And he's one happy guy. That tells me, money and success don't define your heart's content.

What's your idea of a wonderful life? 
To have a wonderful life, you have to be gutsy, edgy, witty and with a genuine heart to catapult or meta morph something that you truly believe in. And believing is not enough; you have to act on it and give it your all... And if you don't still succeed, do it again until your last nerve says no. The trials and the efforts alone are worth taking. That is the core of victory to me...
Mine is still in the making and I know that God will see me through. Miracles do still happen, you know...
