The journey …. continues
Today I am singing in church. Me, singing in church. Not only am I singing, I am singing an old hymn from my childhood that has taken on new meaning in my life today. It is called “Trust and Obey”. I know we, as women, struggle so much with the “o” word. What does itContinue reading “The journey …. continues”

“Where there is life there is hope.”
This title is a quote from my favourite show, Downton Abbey, of course. If you have followed my writing at all I am sure you know that.

spiritual awareness
It’s been a while since I put fingers to keys to write anything beyond a short post. I have not blogged or vlogged on our DanCyn’ Adventures channel either. I have been on sabbatical.

Spiritual Gathering

Are you fired up or down or in or out?
Day 21 – Today’s reading in Older, Wiser, Fiercer is one that I would love to put up for all to read, because there is so much in it that I relate, I’m finding it difficult to whittle it down to a quote or two! As I lay in bed this morning thinking about myContinue reading “Are you fired up or down or in or out?”
It’s almost here … the light of the moon
Day 13 1951 a baby is born, my brother. As I look down the years of my sibling’s birth, being the youngest it stops at me. Each of my siblings and spouses have witnessed everything I have witnessed and more. The mid-1900’s were years of chaos and wave-making.
