The hands of time
Tick tocking the moments away.
Soon,
The final chapter
Of this book will be written,
The last period put in place.
And the book will be closed.
Reflection will follow.
There were stormy seas
That pounded and tried to break me.
There were times of peaceful calm,
When all seemed right.
What I have found
On this journey,
Is that my life
Is/was somewhere in the middle.
The rough seas help make me stronger.
The calm revitalizes.
In the middle, I find a cohesiveness
That makes my life’s journey
Explicitly my own.
The book is closed now.
A new one ready to be written.
While I hold the pencil ( I like to have the ability to erase)
God will guide my hand
and help me turn the page,
Let the journey continue.

Happy New Years Eve Folks!! This gal is under the weather, so I’ll be snuggling in with meds, tissues and Philip 😻
There’s gonna be a whole lot of reflection going on, a decades worth 😳 as I say bye bye 2019 and hello 2020. It boggles my mind to think that 2020 will be the fourth full year that Jim isn’t here. So much change, growth, transformation has occurred in my life. The me-myself and I, I am today, is unrecognizable of who I was at the end of 2016. I know he’s proud if me. I’m proud of me.
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come. (2 Corinthians 5:17)
