Holy cow that was a surprise!

I have to admit that my heart stopped just a bit when I saw that there was a comment to one of my posts. WHO COULD IT BE?! Please don't be someone I know, someone I may have referenced in some of my "wonderings". It wasn't, thankfully! A kind stranger just trying to offer comfort and encouragement. Maybe that should be proof to me that God does care about the little details, even the things I say here on my blog that I NEVER expected anyone else to see! But He "saw" it and chose to use this kind stranger to speak through. Thank you Crissy...

Some more wondering

I wonder why it's so difficult for me to venture out on my own - to try new things, to go places by myself, to be with people I don't know, to make words come out of my mouth...

       
     
(I really liked what Juli said today - "reach up and reach out, reach out and reach up". I'm not very good at the whole reaching out thing, and quite frankly not very good at the reaching up lately either.)

I wonder why when one particular person has a somewhat cryptic Facebook status I automatically think "oh crap, what did I do now?"....

I wonder...

Since most likely no one will ever see this, am I free to say whatever I want? Free to completely speak my mind? But really, who am I asking these questions if I don't expect anyone to see them?

I wonder if God teases us - dangles something out in front of us and then yanks it away at the last minute.

I wonder why people have to die.

I wonder why when you've (and by "you" I mean me) tried to play an important role in someone's life, tried to be supportive of all they do, tried to be present in their life, tried to always express love to them, why when given the chance to express who they think has played an important role in their life you don't seem to be on the list.

I wonder if God really does care about the little details of my life.

I wonder why people in authority find it necessary to be condescending, to talk down to the people that work for them.

I wonder....

Blog hops

I created this blog simply because when I do blog hops they keep asking for links to my blog in order to enter the drawing. I got tired of saying "I don't have a blog" so I just created this one!
