General Conference thoughts: Great Love for Our Father’s Children
Here’s the thing. Love has never been my strong suit. I have always been more of a loner and a bit isolated. If there is a group of people I will tend to shy away. It’s just how I roll. Continue reading
One more to add
In this age of online presence, I have developed certain goals. Besides the serious ones of never discovering my picture on naughty websites or having my identity stolen (why anyone would want to hide under this persona I’ll never know but I still don’t want it to happen) I have a few other goals more as a matter of pride.

It’s a cool process that we take for granted. Continue reading
When love is left out of the equation…
I listened quietly. That’s what I do. I am a quiet observer.
His complaint was valid, I’ll give him that.
I listened to a home teacher talk about his assigned single sister to minister to. She owned her own home but was “needy” in that she always asked him to help with fix-it chores. Perhaps he was just venting because he was talking to a family friend. The problem though is that I also was there. And I related to the single sister’s situation. Continue reading
The Day the Dreamer Woke Up
The day the dreamer woke up
is not a sad tale for all.
For some out there,
it’s part of life’s call. Continue reading
Lazy
An important consideration for a lazy person. How much can I accomplish and how little do I have to work to do it? Continue reading
General Conference thoughts: Abound with Blessings
Not to detract from the analogy Elder Renlund used but to try and put it in my language here are my thoughts about faith and works. Continue reading
