I’ve been catching up on reading one of my favorite blogs. While the writer and I really don’t have a lot in common on a spiritual level, he said something in a recent post that said it all for me.
“When you’re getting your nourishment from the Source, that other crap doesn’t matter. It just doesn’t.”
He was speaking [...]

Wow, where to begin? This weekend was totally cool, man (there she is again, the old hippie). I attended the Oklahoma Sustainability Network Annual Conference and was blown away with the information and networking opportunities offered.

Perhaps its the fact that we’re forecasted to have 65 degrees and sunshine today that has me ready to start gardening. I ordered three [...]

Wow. I knew it had been a while since I posted anything here, but checking the date it’s been over 60 days. So, not that anyone but me cares, but I will do a little catching up.

The Lord knew just what I needed.
I pulled into the driveway after work on Friday without opening the garage door. I came into the house and saw the door to my son’s room closed. I knew darn well I had propped it open so the cat could come and go. I pushed open the door [...]
