21 Day Flesh Stomping: Day 11, WHY I am doing this
I am doing this.....because she wants me to play babies and my head, my mind can barely imagine it. Fatigue has become my playmate and my guide, with it, we have survived too many days. The days I have to play dolls are quickly running out and I am feeling their valiant feet cutting upon m...
Thank you Jenni.

The Orchestrated Road
It got me everytime...this road, the one I have traveled so many times. And everytime I think, "you should just pull over, stop and enjoy the view, every 50 yards or so...get out, breathe, take pictures...don't just keep pushing at the speed limit...get out, Molly...get out and enjoy the road...
A world that has been sitting right before us, waiting to be appreciated and LOVED...it is amazing, no?

I didn't invent it. The idea of living slowly, consciously...purposefully. I realized though, that I do have the slower life. I have a gift that many cannot choose for themselves. The gift of time. The wisest people I've known are the ones who have time to think, to ponder and to wonder. My h...

We have an ideal situation as far as landlords go. A beautiful, well-cared for home. And a man, if you could find a fault...and not really a fault at all....to be considerate, considerate to a point that few people ever go. I've never met someone so humble, so considerate...always thi...

I was straining to see God's hand in this move yesterday. And yesterday after I left the park...I was grieving for my home, for this family...and I could see through all of it, more of what He is trying to teach me...more of His gentle guidance. It's everywhere really, when I take the time to be still and listen. Thank-you for sharing it with me.

The Wonder-ful Pebble in My Shoe
I keep going back...back to the daily routines...And then I trip...my brain, my soul, my feet. These feet use to work here, on this hard, stony path...they use to work just fine. But these shoes, did these shrink? My foot has it grown? Is that a pebble? I just removed a pebble, this exact pebble...
