What strategies do you use to increase comfort in your daily life?

View all responses

I’m gonna make like a scarecrow and use my brain! In any manner that one employs to increase comfort in one’s life, it requires the power of the mind.

The world around us continues to go round and round, regardless of how comfortable we wish to feel about it. Good, bad, happy, sad… the only strategy one can use to increase comfort, would be how they process, accept and cope with the reality of their daily life.

We each get just one life, one chance to exist on this planet, and what we do with what we have is all that will remain, in the end.

Choose belief… choose faith, love, and goodness in all things!

As it says in Romans 12: 2,

“Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is — his good, pleasing and perfect will.”

What are you most excited about for the future?

View all responses

Here’s a novel idea, WordPress… how about we come up with some new prompt questions.

Right now, that would make me very excited for the future… of prompt questions, that is!

Did you guys know, when I contacted WordPress last year about the repeat prompts, they told me that no one manages that department anymore… its just an empty rolodex of the same set of questions from three years ago.

As far as I’m aware, they’ve no intention of renewing the prompts.

I suppose if we keep re-answering the questions, instead of lodging formal complaints about the issue, this groundhog day experience will become like that of the character, Barney, and just go on and on, my friends!

Just sayin…

Here, have a cookie! And I promise that it won’t be one from last year…

What could you let go of, for the sake of harmony?

View all responses

Dangled before my eyes, like a carrot before the horse, the world offers wealth, pleasure, power and endless freedoms.

Sitting in my RV, surveying all that is around me, I am left wanting!

In order to keep my sanity, peace and harmony, severing ties with the very thing that causes so much pain and heartache, seems a small price to pay!

I shall store up my treasures in heaven, where there is eternal value, for I shall not be taking anything of this world with me when I go!

What is your favorite genre of music?

View all responses

I love so many different genres of music, it doesn’t seem fair to pick only one.

There’s the music my mom listened to when I was small.

There’s the colorful Jams of the 80’s from my high school days.

Then, there are all the children’s nursery rhymes and sing along songs, from when my girls were little.

Now we can add all of the music I listen to these days, which can range from Contemporary Christian Worship to hip hop, and nearly everything in between!

As long as there isn’t foul language or questionable lyrics, this girl loves her tunes!

I simply find it beautiful that music has a magical way of impacting ones emotional and physical state.

Describe your most memorable vacation.

My neck and back are stiff from all the firework rubbernecking I did, and I need at least a day to recover from all the food I ate last night, so all I got for you today is a cup of coffee.

Don’t you dare ask me to even look at a cookie, right now! Yikes!

On what subject(s) are you an authority?

View all responses

On any given day, I suppose I could attempt to be an authority in a number of differing subjects!

Today, however, you’re in luck! As this is a day of celebrating our nations independence, I so happen to be planning to become an authority on what we’ll be eating this afternoon…

Food glorious food, as Templeton from Charlotte’s web sings it the best!

Here, I’ll share more than just plain ole cookies…

Happy Independence Day!

What’s your definition of romantic?

View all responses

There is no one, real, definition of romance, as far as I’m concerned!

Love displays itself in many ways, and romance could be considered one of them, but as soon as we try separating the idea of romance from all the other aspects of love within an intimate relationship, everything suffers.

I so wish folks could understand that if a person jumps past the important parts of love, to get to the good stuff, so to speak.

I don’t hold to any specific rule for successful romance, but rather, observe my husbands general attitude toward me, in our daily lives.

While we do not have money for romantic dinners, outings and/or vacations, nor would there be any room for fancy gifts inside this old RV, even if we could afford them, an attitude of love and tenderness makes all the difference!

Regardless of what my husband does to express romance, the fact that he thought about making the effort to win my affections, is why he always wins my heart.

Romance will be dead

if there’s no love in the bed!

How do you express your gratitude?

View all responses

I shall not squander the life given to me by my Creator! In the words of someone I admire,

“Those who cling to worthless idols forfeit the grace that could be theirs. But I with a song of thanksgiving, will sacrifice to you. What I have vowed I will make good. Salvation comes from the Lord.” Jonah 2: 8,9

You can call me selfish, I suppose, but I want every single ounce of grace that God is offering. I’m not forfeiting any of it!

What are you most worried about for the future?

View all responses

I do not worry over that which God has firmly within his control!

While I may experience fear at times, or even a certain amount of distress in the middle of a circumstance, my faith in God overpowers and triumphs over those fears.

Besides, why would I want to waste my energy dwelling on fears and worries, when God has already promised to give me a hope and a future!

What makes a teacher great?

Instead of saying that those who can’t teach, do, maybe we should say that those who do, often end up teaching others, rather well!
