there is a lot going on, isn’t there?

It’s pretty scary.  But if a little ant stays focused, we can, too. If a flower wears its best dress on a stormy day, we can, too. We read of this in the Scriptures.  Outside we go, where we see for ourselves that it is true: life goes on, trees grow, flowers never worry. We remember how much more valuable we are to our Creator.

what shall we do?

We are all asking this. First, we turn to our Creator. We notice the lessons in His Creation and look into the faces around us. Second, we help those around us, starting with our family. Then, we think. We don’t echo the words of others, but pray and think in cycle.

we are needed

We are needed to share lessons learned and truths realized. We must weave creativity into our daily lives, knowing that creativity goes into the world where we cannot. When the perfected product is not the goal, the process can be.

Finding Autumn in Appalachia

journal

I spent last week in Appalachia, where the Smoky Mountains, the Blue Ridge mountains, and the Appalachian Mountains merge. Did you know they do that? It’s kind of like a family, genus, species thing. Or a Jonah, whale, ocean thing. The Smoky Mountains are a small set of mountain ridges within the larger Blue Ridge Mountains and they’re all within…
