Past My Shades
Good evening. Many of you know that I normally send individual letters, notes, or emails to special people in my life every Christmas. This year, I’m switching things up a bit. This year, I’ve decided to tell the world how much I appreciate, love, and value those closest to me. Rox – LOL. That’s what I think about when I say your name. I just get tickled. The reason is because you know how to make me laugh. We can find humor in the worse situations and at the most random times. After I’ve dried my eyes from laughing hysterically, I simply smile....

Good evening. Only God would be there when my father died at a time when he was all I had. Only God would be there to wait 18 years for me to get to know Him all the while looking out for me. Only God would be there when I did stupid things that should have cost me my life. Only God would be there when a 6 month old made it clear that he was in my life for good. Only God would be there when I had to choose between money for food and money for gas. Only God would be there when I realized that I had purpose even though I didn’t know what it was. Only God would be there during my 150...

Good morning. An old car on a hard road. This morning I had a competitive experience with a gentleman driving an older model car. Throughout the stretch of the 6 mile highway from our neighborhood to the interstate, he literally smoked me. To give you a visual, I was still in the last curve when he was exiting onto I55. Then something weird happened. He fell back completely out of sight. I could only come away with the assumption that though he knew his older car was able to burn pavement on a short highway, he failed to understand that it could do the same in the distance....

Good morning. Seriously be thankful for the people in your life that have been the same since day one – good or bad. Love on them and keep them close. Regardless of whatever situation life threw at your relationship, your relationship stood. Distance, disagreements, or mutual annoyance were and are minor when up against the bond. Kathy & Rox, you keep me going. You keep me loving and you love me, and when we do all of this, we keep growing.

Good morning. The people that God lead into your life are invaluable and should be cherished beyond measure. Never take them for granted. I was talking with a friend a few weekends ago and she told me how much of an impact my writings have on her and how they often speak to her. Well yesterday, I experienced that very same feeling. Another one of my closest friends blogged about the very thing that I’ve been struggling with lately…loneliness. Now, mind you, she and I have not talked about what I was going through, and I personally didn’t want to. Instead, I chose to spend...
