Last night I watched a surprisingly excellent movie. I say surprisingly because I am not a war/combat movie fan. As a child, I was forced to watch way too many war movies and westerns, so generally they are not my idea of a something I want to watch. I am grateful to the men and... Continue Reading →
The Power of Your Word
POD #19: The Power of Your Word One of the quotes that those close to me would say is a Jackie-ism is "Your words have power." I grew up hearing the scripture that "the power of life and death are in the tongue. " But I don't know when it really clicked for me that what we... Continue Reading →
My bucket
POD #18: My bucket Right now, I feel like my bucket is empty. Waiting for some type of inspiration, passion or creativity to magically begin to flow. There are a few that come regularly to drink from my bucket, but I am not feeling the fresh connections and creativity that comes as new people come... Continue Reading →
Nobody’s perfect (Maybe)
POD #15: Nobody’s perfect. (Maybe) Jesus Christ is perfect - completely free from flaw or defect.

The Farmer’s Worldview

That doesn't mean endings are not painful but they are usually necessary. Endings open the door for new beginnings. There is a commitment I know that I need to end - it is over... Continue Reading →
Resistance Genome
TPOD #7: Your Resistance Genome I read the prompt this morning, and decided I wasn't ready to conquer my resistance genome. I set my phone down, rolled over, put the blanket over my head and went back to sleep. Of course, the prompt was still there three hours later, and being a task oriented person... Continue Reading →
The Crowned Queen
POD #6: Your Royal Highness: There was a time in my life that I thought I was the crowned queen of the world. It was a fantasy world that many of the members allowed me to fill. Yes, my world was small, but I believed that it revolved around me. When I became a mother,... Continue Reading →
Intended for Good
POD #3: Third Time’s a Wrap A few years back I found myself telling a story of my life, it was for a good cause. I knew it was a story woven to raise money and that it could tug at the heart-strings of even Scrooge. It was my story to tell, and could be... Continue Reading →
