You remember this old line?
"We are experiencing
technical difficulties,
one moment please."
Quite often in my life
I feel the desire to have
a sign like this made up
and carry . . .

Stir the pot a little bit.
Stir it one more time.
Act like there no reason
To your meddling or rhyme.
Add a tiny pinch of this
And of that, right there.
Strive, connive, manipulate
Like . . .

I try to be like
God to everybody.
I bind a wound here.
I take a stand there,
In this one or that one's
Defence.
I wipe a tear away.
I cause a tear to fall
Because I am trying . . .

There is a spark of the divine in all of us
Waiting to be delivered of it's source.
A kindling to become a raging fire.
A trickle waiting to become a stream
And finally rivers of living waters. . . .

You never know
When a word you say
Might salvage the life
Of a soul one day.
You never know
When your friendly smile
Is the first that a person's
Seen in a while.
You never . . .

Come on into our clique
Said the spider to the fly.
We will make you welcome.
(We won't make you die!)
Come and see things our way
It is not too hard.
We will talk of many things.

Why do we say such things to each other?
Do such things to each other?
Don't we all feel the same pain
When our hearts break?
Don't we all cry somewhere
Down deep inside of us when . . .

Tiny hadn’t been happy for a long time, but no one could ever tell—at least not anyone who mattered.
He missed his mother. He missed his real name, John. He hated traveling . . .

On Feb. 11th, twenty-seven years ago, I met my husband.
About three months prior to that, I was living in Rising Star, Texas. A single young minister had come to visit. I liked him, . . .

So much I want to share with you!
Things, sometimes sad, I hold inside.
Depths of hurts unexpressed, unallowed,
Threaten the dynamics of who we are
And what we mean to one another.
Some thoughts . . .

Believe it or not, I used to be a C-store manager. Not the perfect manager, but, I like to think, not the worst. At least, people kept paying me to do it.
As a manager, . . .

One last thought before I go
I leave you with.
We are all of the utmost
Importance to the Lord.
Let us not take ourselves
Too seriously.
But careful, now, let us not
Take ourselves too . . .

I wish I would just stop sometimes!
This urge to always, always, always
Try to make people understand one another!
More often than not, I step into the breach
With the 'bestest' of . . .

My little bit may not bring me
World recognition or endless fortune.
It may not change a nation
Or end world hunger.
I may not be remembered as
Having done that much at all.
But if I have . . .

I know that holding grudges
Is the behavior of immature and weak
People. I refuse to do it.
I am too mature, I tell myself.
I should act normal. Gracious. Sane.

"You are special to Jesus."
The words seem so pat
Like the kind of platitude
One murmurs to a child.
But, if we could only see
Just how very precious

We go so many directions
Trying to be the one who
Knows it all, has the answers.
You've heard the expression,
"Every time I make ends meet
Somebody moves the end"?

Silly me.
I keep thinking
That one day I will
Be this perfect person
Who never does any wrong.
One day,
I think that I'll
Clean my house
From top to bottom
And throw away the . . .

It's Tuesday. This is the week I get to judge all of the Easel Musings groups stories. (I know the Lord said 'judge not', but I'm sure he meant people, not what they do.) . . .
