My Singin' Legs

Just a little video my mom sent me this morning that she thought I would enjoy. I did. Now I will share it with you because like I told her, "This is too good not to share." Here are the lyrics: We pray for blessings We pray for peace Comfort for family, protection while we sleep We pray for healing, for prosperity We pray for Your mighty hand to ease our suffering All the while, You hear each spoken need Yet love us way too much to give us lesser things 'Cause what if Your blessings come through raindrops What if Your healing comes through tears What if a thousand sleepless nights Are what it takes to know You’re near What if trials of this life are Your mercies in disguise We pray for wisdom Your voice to hear And we cry in anger when we cannot feel You near We doubt Your goodness, we doubt Your love As if every promise from Your Word is not enough All the while, You hear each desperate plea And long that we'd have fa...

Today, as my day progressed on slowly through the mundane afternoon, my mother sent me an email. She happened upon a blog that spoke to her and particularly today. It was about marriage and this lady's relationship with her husband. Naturally, I wanted to shrug off the email because there are times I'm happy I'm single, but then there are those days where ALL I want is to share my life with someone who deserves me and who I deserve right back and those days I prefer not to dwell too hard on that fact. My mom wanted my opinion on her writing (she can be sneaky like that; masking her ulterior motive with a generic request). So, I read the blog. Today, I was happy with my single-dom, until this email... until this blog. The Bravest & Most Beautiful Affair H e lies stretc hed out in the dark and I lay long beside him. Listen to him breathe… the only sound there is. This is an epic, everyday love story, one written with years and skin and the rings. In...

I find this song totally appropriate right now. And it makes me smile, so I'll share it with you. There's too many things that I haven't done yet Too many sunsets I haven't seen You can't waste the day wishing it'd slow down You would've thought by now I'd have learned something I made up my mind when I was a young girl I've been given this one world I won't worry it away But now and again I lose sight of the good life I get stuck in a low light But then Love comes in How far do I have to go to get to you Many the miles Many the miles How far do I have to go to get to you Many the miles But send me the miles and I'll be happy to follow you Love I do what I can wherever I end up To keep giving my good love And spreading it around Cause I've had my fair share of take care and goodbyes I've learned how to cry And I'm better for that Sing how far do I have to go to get to you Ma...

I've blogged about this before, but it's been a little bit. I'm interested in photography. The art of capturing a image, a moment in time to preserve for all of time. I'm addicted. I stopped taking pictures for a while, but recently I've picked it back up. I'd really like to see where I can take this. Not as a means to make money; just as my little form of expression. Another form of release for my creative. I wanted to share them with you.

A long time ago, I was shown these little words of wisdom from a friend who I thought would be my friend forever. Well, like most things, I was wrong. We were at 2 different points in our lives and going 2 separate directions. We parted ways. I see this friend from time to time now and as I approach to be polite and extend a greeting, she runs in the other direction. I understand now why our friendship ended, but I'm thankful for the times we had and what I learned about myself and life while we were friends. So, I think it appropriate to share these words with you... People come into your life for a reason, a season, or a lifetime. When you figure out which it is, you know exactly what to do. When someone is in your life for a REASON , it is usually to meet a need you have expressed outwardly or inwardly. They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support, to aid you physically, emotionally, or spiritually. They may seem...

I discovered this song while working at my restaurant. I seem to be working all the time now and not really minding. It keeps my mind off other thoughts and that's a good thing. All I think about is work and spending time with friends after and laughing and generally enjoying myself and that's ok by me. Then I was introduced to this song and it's affected me. I don't know if it's good or bad, but it's affected me. The lyrics are powerful: Car is parked, bags are packed, but what kind of heart doesn't look back At the comfortable glow from the porch, the one I will still call yours? All those words came undone and now I'm not the only one Facing the ghosts that decide if the fire inside still burns All I have, all I need, he's the air I would kill to breathe Holds my love in his hands, still I'm searching for something Out of breath, I am left hoping someday I'll breathe again I'll breathe again Open up next to you and my s...
