The Mind is a Battleground!
To be perfectly honest, I struggle daily! I have been fighting a battle for so long; Sometimes I grow weary and want to quit!

Shall We Wait until Heaven?
Finding God! Traveling down the interstate occupying the front passenger seat entranced with the thought, if only I could throw myself out the car door and end it all.

A Messed-Up Retreat: Live for the Finished Result!
Last week was rough! It included leg pain that would not leave which is always chalked up to fibromyalgia, and with that a butter explosion mishap in the microwave.
