Maybe because our emotions are blurring our vision or because we aren’t paying attention or we just plain miss … Continue reading Fish Tacos
Pushed into Opportunity
So often, I hear the question, “How did you learn Spanish?” My response, “Pull up a chair.” Many times, at least in my personal life, we get pushed into things that are really opportunities in disguise. I realized this not too long ago as I wrote another post. Spanish is one of those topics that … Continue reading Pushed into Opportunity
Heavenly Reminders

You know the adrenaline you get from riding your first roller coaster… … Continue reading Heavenly Reminders
Fat Tuesday
There comes a time in life when one begins to wonder. A pondering of life, one’s decisions, the past, the future, the what-ifs, the curiosity and hunger for more.

When God Closes a Door, Sometimes He Opens a Small Window…
Have you ever heard the saying, "When God closes a door, He opens a window" or "When God closes a door, its because something better is coming"? Well, He did just that to me. Yesterday as a matter of fact. Well, the window part was yesterday. The door part started a few months prior. So … Continue reading When God Closes a Door, Sometimes He Opens a Small Window…
God Speaks: Dream of Trees
The Dream -- Sunday, July 15th I am at the house with my soon-to-be-husband. I hear a loud noise outside. I go to the front door and see a black four door sedan parked outside the house. Four men get out in unison with chainsaws in hand. They leave the car doors open and move … Continue reading God Speaks: Dream of Trees
