Creative Destruction – Good or Bad?

As anyone who follows me knows, I am sold out to sharing and preserving our photos, media, life-stories and memories.  Even though I am a bit “late to the party” in finding the best way to accomplish these legacy goals, I am committed to helping others do the same.  Hopefully, helping them start earlier than

Step By Step

You’re in a hurry. You need to know what this story is about. Stat. OK, OK. It’s about impatience. And, so you don’t have to wade through the whole thing, here is the last sentence of the story: In other words, imprudence, not impatience, is the problem. C U L8R The above is the opening

Did We Know?  1936?

In working to address a hip issue, my primary care doctor has sent me to physical therapy after an x-ray to evaluate structural causes.  On the same day I was to start P.T., I realized something else that might be an underlying problem – insufficient dosage of nutrition minerals. About a year ago, in working

Better Than a Fireproof Safe

As is often the case, a special sale pulled me into action.   Those who know me or have followed me for a while know that a few years ago, I discovered a surprise at the company I was using for creating my digital photobooks, FOREVER.   I had loved their software programs for many, many

Skip the Hardship

Can’t we just skip the hardship, get the lesson learned and over with, and move on? Yep – that has been my prayer (often).  ‘Fess up – have you done the same? I know that “godliness” and “persecution” have not paired up easily in my way of thinking.  Actually, Henry Blackaby in his devotional laid

Controversial?  You bet.  I have heard everything from the fear of high cholesterol numbers to those who say driving cholesterol out of the body has caused

What Will They Remember?

I recently did a blog titled “The Price of Busy” that was written as I sat in hospice in-patient with my friend who had started (but not finished) my Life Story photobook course.  She had several pages created, beautiful pages with lovely photos – but sadly, no identification or stories attached.   I bemoaned the busyness

Digging Deeper

While my salvation story occurred during a “good ole revival” in my small West Texas town’s First Baptist Church, and I was baptized (fully dunked) around the age of 8, my relationship “walk” with the Lord did not begin until I was 41. In the early years, my family did not read or consult the

Your Body Speaks

My blog rotates between the topical focus of HEART (photos & memories), BODY (physical) and SOUL (spiritual).  It is based on Deuteronomy 6:5 “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength.”  Because we are multi-faceted beings, each area is of importance to us.  And

The Price of Busy

I am writing this as I sit in a hospice in-patient room with my dear friend who can no longer tell me her stories to fill in the blank pages in her Life Story photobook. She started it when she took my Life Story course — I was cheering her on. She recorded some of
