Dealing with Hurt

I met Lain Ehmann in a “breakthrough” session with her on the focus and wording for my online business – Journey Well:  Heart Body & Soul.  Her credentials in the copywriting field include working with Tony Robbins. To my delight, I found her to be a strong, thoughtful and wise Christian.  Thus, I later started

TRAUMA – I’ve Got An Oil for That!

It actually started back when my granddaughter was first playing softball – of course I was there — and taking soooo many photos and enjoying the families and fun.  You guessed it – pre-COVID.  Several years ago. One of the player’s little sisters was on the sideline where all the younger siblings were enjoying games

From Stick Figures to Robust Life Stories

Who are these people?  I call this size of photo “Stick Figures” because you really can’t tell much about them.  This was in my mother’s album, and she was almost 80 when I saw it and asked her questions.  I did my best to write down everything she said.  These people were in their later

Repairing Relationships

Tim Keller’s podcast using this title caught my attention – it’s what I have spent years studying, engaging and practicing as well as trying to find the best ways to walk alongside folks in broken relationships. While I recommend you listen to his full podcast, I extracted core pieces here which rang so true for

A Trip Down Covid Lane

What a wonderful mountain retreat with my photoalbum buddies!  Working…sharing…teaching each other new methods and tips…laughing…learning.  Ooops, one had to go home early – she was not feeling well.  Sadly, the text comes back within 24 hours that the Covid test was positive.  We all lift her up in prayer. Finish the retreat and return

Photos & Stories – Too Many Yet Not Enough

I remember opening a packaged roll of film and putting it into my camera – and yes, pulling the tab of the film roll across the back of the camera to latch into the roller, then closing the back plate of the camera and scrolling to show “#1” in the viewer (or was it #24,

How’s Your Perfection Coming?

OK, remember “The Fonz”?  That’s Fonzie from the TV series “Happy Days”.  Never was there a character that was more perfect (in his own mind).  He was a 1950’s lovable and almost superhuman greaser who provided us so many laughs. I actually watched and can visualize this scene as it unfolded  – Fonzie whips out

Put Me In Coach

Watching my granddaughter’s softball games (or any of my gkids playing sports) is awesome fun.  Seeing the amazing amount of enthusiasm and effort they put into it – PLUS, how did she learn that whole pitch routine and get her body to stretch and perform like that?  It’s a basic answer – she needed a

Heart Guides

As you begin a new year, you may be painfully aware of how you failed to achieve some or all of your 2021 goals.  Whether you formalized the goals or just held them vaguely in your consciousness, such lookbacks can be depressing and dispiriting.  Henry Blackaby, in his devotional Experiencing God Day by Day, provided

I Choose…

Attitudes do not just happen:  we CHOOSE them.  Henry Blackaby, Experiencing God Day by Day, hit me with this statement recently – and the timing (end of year, look back time, set goals for next year) was right when I needed it. But I was about to brush it off with a glance just thinking
