That's It! Get back in the magazine!

-
Have you ever gone to the gym and thought...no way! Why in the world are they here? Yep, happened tonight.

I was at my water aerobics class minding my own business and BAM! They were a couple even! I bet they fight like cats and dogs! That was the only way I could console myself. 👀

How do you get to look like that? I mean, everything was perfect. They even sat like they were posing. NO way!

All the while I'm jogging to the oldies...or with the oldies? I don't know. I was one of the two. Man I felt old! I mean really. I think they were both perpetually 35. Why 35? Well, at 25 you don't appreciate having a body like that and they looked like they appreciated it.

Am I jealous? Let me see...let's take inventory. I'm past 35....by a few months...lol. I have Russian Roulette health.  Some days its good, some days not so much. I have rods in my back, screws in my foot and a zipper in the front and in the back. Don't I sound beautiful?

Well, I think I am! There! I said it! Still not prideful. Because although I may lack their physique I have something they don't. My Brain! Yes, It's one of my most beautiful assets.

Can't argue with the brain part! lol! If I've made you smile, laugh or think through my bloggin then  my brain is working just fine and it's a beauty to behold.  So, I may not look the part or even sit like I play the part or swim like I know what I'm doing, but I'm alive! I'm me! I like me!!! Just the way I am.

Embrace you! And tell those people...nicely to.... "Get back in the magazine!" That's all folks!

I believe I can fly, but I’d rather not

  https://youtu.be/_6y5bgrKhLI?si=okhqwhA-CR5EyA80 I love this song.  I believe I can fly, but I’d rather not.  Have you ever dreamt that you were flying? Did you try to fly when you were a child? Did you jump off a roof (I don’t recommend it) to see if you could fly?  Me too! Let me tell you about one of the times and hopefully the last time I flew.  It was a sunny day and all was well. I had a job as a tram driver. I was so excited!  I’m limited to what I can do when it comes to working. This seemed like the perfect job for me. I'd drive a truck pulling a tram in circles.   The venue I was working for had a concert that night. I was thrilled. I’d be doing something I enjoyed.  Plus I’d get to hear the concert. I had already made a couple of friends, so I was feeling really good.  The employee parking lot wasn’t finished yet. The venue was a work in progress. I was asked to take a golf cart down a hill and bring employees up the hill. It sounded like fun.  I was cruising down the

Anxiety and Seeds

Anxiety and seeds ; what does one have to do with the other ? I watched Elevation Church online today. Pastor Furdick talked about seeds and shoes.  Hmmm.  He buried a seed in a pot. When he buried the seed no one gasped , nor did it seem odd. He poured dirt on the seed and again, no one cared. Seeds are supposed to be in dirt. When you’re a seed the dirt is part of the process. Then he took off his white tennis shoes. He started to put them in the same dirt. People yelled, “don’t do it!” Why? Shoes are not made to be inside the dirt.  Shoes are made to walk on the dirt. Seeds are a doing inward work. Shoes are for the outward appearance .  Shoes don’t work without feet.  Seeds don’t work without dirt. Anxiety is often an outward manifestation of an inward experience. Anxiety is something most people bury .  When anxiety builds without purpose  , it produces pain. Elevation talked about what happens when we are under pressure, it hurts.  The dirt puts pressure on the seed. Dirt devalue

He’s just having a bad day

Have you or someone near to you been physically, mentally or emotionally abused? Growing up and marrying an emotional abuser can skew a persons ability to comprehend that they are being abused. While growing up, I had the impression that I was the reason my father failed in ministry. The concept was “if you weren’t born we would have traveled and had a great ministry.” Nobody knows where I got this idea from, but it was firmly planted in my mind.  The abuser changed tactics as I grew older. When he was having a “bad” day, it was my fault. I was literally told “he only acts like that when you’re around.” So, I stayed away from him as much as possible to keep him from blowing up or acting hateful. I assumed that it was my fault. The root of abuse is the need for power.   Abusers , all abusers, are thirsty for power. There are no exceptions.  During my childhood the abuser would be very kind, then funny, then cruel. People didn't or didn't want to see the cruel side. As a child I
