    Just a few questions…

    March 15, 2026

    1.Do you wonder if you ever crossed the path of someone you just met? 2. That look you get from people that you have met in your past but, they  don’t talk to you now. What do they think they know about you? 3.Hope can be a tear jerker at times. 4. Comfort is what I want. That’s where food cones in. How nice it would be if cookies helped to maintain weight. 5. There has to be something more to life than just death at the end. Heaven sounds like a good option. 6. Do some have to sacrifice…

    SUNDAY POSER #272

    February 9, 2026

    Today was a good day. (By the time I publish this post, it will be Feb 9 2026) Nothing special, just good. I am sitting here at my computer, writing on my blog. My cat is curled up on the chair beside me. I am thinking how if I prayed for good dreams, would they happen? Something like waking up in a Scottish cottage or a castle. Maybe the inventor of something that created an income for the rest of my life. Because life is expensive, no doubt. Then I thought about the responsibilities of life. Somehow, that makes me…

    January 26, 2026

    Does the coin toss decide or your heart does? Well, that depends on the urgency of the situation. The past few years for my family have been choatic. Not more so than anyone else’s chaos but still. Deciding what needs to be done first has been a challenge. Everything needs to be done first. What I do know iswriring has been constant for me. A constant thing I can believe in when everything else atound me shatters. DECIDING – Deadlines are something I stress over. I am not in control. Today, I will decide what needs to be done first.…

    #739 beam blunt works moment own shape ancient envy truth scroll shift fluid I don’t mean to be blunt. I speak the truth when I say, the moment we own responsibility for our self-awareness is when we begin to shape our lives into something greater. We shift our thinking as we learn that we are the common denominator for some of our problems. What is it in our personality that works against our growth? Is it an ancient glitch of envy? Are we stuck in a negative thinking pattern where we do not believe that we deserve a beam of…

    Setting Boundaries for Inner Peace

    January 4, 2026

    I refuse to work on people that don’t work on me. I mean, the last thing they said to me was, “You don’t understand” which completely blindsided me. So here goes the plan. I will make myself unavailable all the time. Not all of the time but some of the time. I won’t walk on eggshells by giving them all of my time. I won’t rush through the things that are important to me so I can be completely focused on them. ATTENTION: GAS LIGHTERS, … I accept TRUE PEOPLE ONLY! Maybe it’s because of life experiences how someone views…

    As I sit here, I can feel the pressure. I am so engrossed in answering prompts that I avoid everything else. Writing motivates me. In fact, writing gets the things I can not control out of my head. At least for a little while, Sunday Poser # 266 HOSTED BY SADJE

    The Sunday Whirl 12-28-2025

    December 28, 2025

    I couldn’t help but sense that the lingering touch on my shoulder felt oddly human. Instead of fear, my heart was full of joy. My spirit was focused on a place of peace. Otherwise, the sharp pain of regret would bring me to the point of losing my mind as I sit in this neglected farmhouse. Who was I kidding? I was stone-cold scared and wondering who the heck was in here with me. #Wordle 737

    Dreading Morning: A Relatable Struggle

    December 14, 2025

    I woke up several times last night. My clock and the light outside told me it was still early. I had some time to sleep more. How can I explain why I dread starting my day? So I don’t explain it. Em…short for Emmanuel. I have to go through the motions. Plain as day. Yes, that is the HOOK that draws us together. It melts your HEART, right? I don’t want to SWAY your opinion or STRIP YOU of any CHAIN that binds the two of us together. I will SWEEP you off your feet like YOU do for me.…
