I have lived with the fear of failure for so long, that anxiety has become a companion for pointing out my imperfections. This is no way to live! I'm learning not to judge myself. … Continue reading Take Heart! Teeny Tiny Accomplishments Go A Long Way!

It Only Takes A Spark

I've been ridiculed for talking "bible speak," because I enjoy sharing the scriptures God commands us to share.

The Gossip Track…It’s A Train Wreck!
(from a series related to narcissistic abuse) Gossip is a long train of lies hitched onto half-truths, sprayed with graffiti, speeding its way down the rough, bumpy track. Who knows where it's going? It's dangerous, but it seems like everyone wants to jump on board, and it can cost people their lives. It's not easy … Continue reading The Gossip Track…It’s A Train Wreck!

Biscuits n Gravy
One hot, sunny morning, it became my favorite breakfast in the whole world... My grandpa ordered biscuits and gravy at a truck stop in Texas. I'd never tried it, and I rarely ate breakfast. My heart swelled with love for him, knowing he was looking forward to his meal. Smiling up at the waitress, I … Continue reading Biscuits n Gravy
