    Blessings In my mind today I think of the many blessings I’m given. God shows up through the people in my life daily. Sal the Feeble Gal realizes no man or woman is an island. Remember your first car? I certainly do. I remember working in a restaurant the summer before my junior year. I…

  • Happy New Year!

    Happy New Year! In my mind today I’m thinking of all of the blessings of 2017 and how things have changed from my childhood. Remember as a child how the 2000’s seemed otherworldly?

    Sheep and Goats Are you a sheep or a goat? Be careful before you answer! I’ve always pondered God, Jesus, spirituality, and the meaning of life. I always have questions. I’m as bad as a child when I start the “but why” game in my mind. Let’s start with the age old question, “Why do…
