Jam Jars


Sadness does funny things to you. I have found that the things I have loved to do most now seem so un-important and I really don’t have the desire to motivate myself to get busy doing them. This past weekend I decided baby steps were in order. Choose a small project and make myself do it and you know what it worked. I feel somewhat rejuvenated; I actually spent a few hours of my time feeling good about how this time was being spent. I was also able to re-visit a few of my favorite Western movies while I was doing it. Really what beats staying indoors on a freezing cold weekend, doing some handwork and watching old movies? Ok I know that wouldn’t be the berries for some of you but you get the gist. Baby –Steps, this is what it is all about at the moment in every aspect of my life but those steps are adding up fast and before you know it I will have walked miles in this new journey and it won’t be so new anymore but a brand new life.

Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. – Hebrews 11:1
