A few more thoughts on Resilience
Good Day, God! I have yet to read the book I just bought on Micro-Resilience by Bonnie St. John. I thought it would be fun to ponder what I have learned so far about life and resilience. One huge conceptual…
Valuing Friends and Fellow Countrymen
Good Afternoon, God! I am glad to be here — sitting at my computer — AWARE of Your Presence. You are always present . . . but I am usually UNAWARE. So, God, when I looked at this photo of…

Traveling, Mazes and Changes
