This is a picture of me taken yesterday after physical therapy. After surgery on my right knee I need a little help getting back up to speed.
I have a few musings to share that have been written recently.
Own This
Dreams come true,
Yes they do, believe,
Say fervent prayers,
Follow your heart,
Invest your life,
Create the reality
That fits your desire.
Claim the miracle,
Make good on your promise,
Carry out your purpose,
Then watch your wishes
Become manifest in the now,
It happens, you can fulfill
All your fondest hopes.
Know it can transpire,
You have what it takes,
You deserve the gift,
Dreams come true!

Love is the answer to the questions of the soul. It has the power to relax the weary mind and supply comfort to the body. Love holds the world in place in space and time. Love is the miracle giving life in the present, and eternal existence. Be at peace for Love is, and knows your name. You are never forsaken, forgotten because Love always surrounds you. There is one Truth, and He is Love.
I equate Love with my Lord, Jesus, but see Love as you will, Love is here for you.
No Wasted Words
Writing can do magic,
Of this I am convinced,
Because it has supplied…
Me with things, once,
I thought impossible.
This life improves,
Becomes more blest,
By words written
Courageously, despite
Overwhelming fear.
To live this moment
More richly alive
Is fulfillment of
Long held dreams
Unbelievably realized.
Lessons learned
Through pages turned;
Questions asked,
Answers given,
Unconditional deliverance.
An article made request,
An inadequate email in reply,
A prayer answered;
The story continues
Much better than before.
Writing, editing, publishing,
Art, photography, design,
These things I love,
Finally, pay dividends,
Life becomes sublime.

You must define yourself; no one else knows who you are. You develop your abilities, your specializations. Let no one impose limitations on you; you are capable of changing the world.
I know I don’t understand, I don’t have the experience, I cannot live your life with your challenges, but please know I am here. I want to hear your story; I want to listen carefully and learn what I can. I want to understand. I want to wrap you in love and show I care about all you are going through.
I tell you all that miracles happen all the time.
This evening I gave Mom a bath in the little bitty shower that is too small for a human being. She was standing up after I rinsed her and went to sit down. Somehow she had turned so that her bottom came outside the shower stall and she headed for the floor. I caught her mostly on the leg that hurts so much because I am still recovering from surgery and with my arms. I pushed and pulled her upward and pushed her back into the s…tall and onto her shower stool.
We managed to get her settled without a fall, but in reality, I should not have been able to do it. Both of us should have wound up with broken bones.
God was with us, and it was a miracle.
I hope November brings you many blessings. May you find many opportunities, much prosperity, and lots of love.
As a prompt today, write about something unexpected that happened over the last week and how it made you feel.
