thoughts of my head upon my bed
My friend was kind enough to take some time away from his family to help me look at a car a couple of weeks back. After searching for a few days, I’d found one I thought I wanted. From the test drive, everything seemed fine. I’d done a cursory check but needed a second, and …
A friend of mine just bought a Yaris, recently, and shared the experience with me a couple of days ago. He was driving on a small local highway, and there it was, on the side of the road. When he spoke with the seller they were just trying to get rid of the car as …
It is, without a doubt and by far, one of my least favorite things to do. So many variables…too much deceit… The anxiety of not being able to trust the person selling to me is overwhelming! As are the factors you need to consider in making the final choice – a newer car with more …
First in the Sabbath School Bible study guide two weeks ago, and then for vespers last Friday, prayer’s been a hot topic of late. In fact, after a rousing sermon entitled “Lift Him Up” at Collegiate Sabbath last weekend, we went out around Big Rapids offering to pray with folk who opened the door to …
Somewhere along the line, perhaps almost a decade ago now, my mother and I developed a tradition. You know how on your birthday, everyone gives you all this attention…the unending stream of wall posts on facebook…for a little more personal touch, you have an actual message in your facebook inbox or a text message on …
There may be somebody out there who can resonate with this struggle of mine with curiosity. Yes, yes, it is said that curiosity killed the cat…But that cat had at least nine lives, right…so…it’s ok 😛 It’s so frustrating when people start telling you something then leave you hanging! I mean, how can you sleep …

Recently, I’ve come to an existential comprehension of why “long-suffering” and “patience” are synonyms… It takes a distinct determination, a fortitude and resilience to wait patiently for something so deeply desired. Patience isn’t just about letting time pass. It’s got to do with the attitude adopted while the necessary time lapses. It is, by no …
I finished re-doing my hair this past weekend – putting in new braids in preparation for a friend’s wedding. Hopefully, that is the last I will see of pieces of my shattered windshield. My car was officially totaled, by the way. I’ll be needing more than a new windshield now. There’s so much I could …
The big question for a blogger today: Do I acknowledge the day? or do I not? Thing is, I’ve been meaning to write something concerning Whitney Houston. She was so gifted! A friend introduced me to her performance of The Star Spangled Banner at the 1991 Superbowl – sent chills down my spine; so seamlessly, …
