  • Unity

    In my mind I have been thinking about something that we all need, especially Christians. This week is prayer for Christian unity. Today our modern culture is confused. We want to be Christians without the work and suffering from following a moral code of ethics and virtues. It is so easy to look around and…

  • Bucket Lists

    Bucket List In my mind today, I am thinking about “Bucket Lists.” When my body began betraying me in 2011, I felt that it was only going to progress. Why? I had an aunt who started falling at the age of 38, her legs would give out underneath her without warning. She became so weak…

  • Where is Sal the ALS Gal?

    Where is Sal the ALS Gal? In my mind, I have been so busy. I am still working on spreading the Light and Love to my corner of the world. September was so tough. I lost three weeks to the nastiest sinus infection I’ve ever had coupled with ALS. It took a toil on me.…

  • Gethsemane Days

    In my mind, I am still enjoying Easter. Students, it is the fourth week of Easter and life here in Tennessee is bursting with rebirth. It is also rising from the earth. Have you discovered all of the trees bursting with colorful blooms? Last week we read St. Stephen in Acts of the Apostles 6:…

  • Troublesome Children  second week of Lent reflection

    In my mind during this second week of Lent, I have been thinking about troublesome children. Even the ultimate Father has had trouble from the beginning with disobedient children.

  • Shine on!

    In my mind I am thinking about how time flies! It is already the end of the second week of Lent. Are you shining your Christ lights? Are you keeping your Lenten goals? If yes, great! If not, start today. Most people give up stuff for Lent: foods, vices, cursing or social media. These are…

  • Oh, What a Night!

    Oh, what a night!  In my mind, I have too many irons in the fire. Students, that is what my Daddy would tell me when I wanted to do a dozen tasks at once. I can still hear his voice from beyond the pale. It warms my heart that we stay connected in eternity. Yes…

  • Flutter Pickles, Fairy Dust, and Crunch Crunch Berries

    In my mind today I am thinking about flutter pickles, fairy dust, crunch crunch berries, and all the great times I have had with my grand girls. I cannot believe another season is upon me and my older Grands are a senior and a freshman. Where are the days that were filled with such Garden…

  • HOPE is Floating, again

    In my mind lately I have been searching for Hope. You know something to look forward to because I have been ghosting in my mind in the past. It has been a powerful journey fighting back from the other side of grief. Something floating in my chest nudged me. There once again, I find myself…

  • March Madness

    In my mind today I am thinking about March Madness. Oh, I absolutely love this time of year. My sweet husband and I were so ready for November but March is when it gets heated. Waiting to see if our favorite team made it into the big tournament is so stressful!  Believe it or not,…
