solitary

#252 I am just free-writing this for those who need to hear this. To the one who feels like time is passing he/she by and that their life is moving too quickly, read this post. I have and continue  to experience this and it’s a really interesting position to be in. I haven’t written on…

The End of Daily Blogs

#250 Sadly, this is not click-bait. I have procrastinated writing this post for several days because of how challenging it is for me. I have grown so fond of this site and the thrill of writing a post every single day. It has been challenging, but it’s complete. Upon starting this site, I had thought…

The Potential

#249 Everywhere we are and every second we are given, is an opportunity to be a blessing. What happens often in life, is that we choose to spend those moments to encourage ourselves or to live selfishly. We can lend a helping hand when necessary, but we never search out opportunities to be a blessing….

Letters to my future self.

#248 My mom recently bought me a book/journal that is used to record certain notes for future reading. This book, “Letters to my future self” has a hardcover and then inside it has “pages” for different topics. On the right side the page looks like an envelope which folds down twice to open into one…

Wisdom Teeth Removal

#247 I have found out that I have to get my wisdom teeth removed and it is quite unsettling. My sister has recently had hers pulled, but one of mine is growing in sideways. It appears that I too, will be joining Amy in having the removal of four teeth. It is still weeks away…

Another Day

#243 So today I woke up feeling great. I had been able to sleep and get much appreciated rest. My family had morning Bible devotion, I cleaned my birds’ cage, Had Lunch and then went to the orthodontist office. My orthodontist wanted to see if I would need to have my wisdom teeth removed. They…

My Apologies for my Disappearance

#242 Hello. I would like to apologize for not posting on here for almost 11 days! It is unacceptable and not according to my goal for this site. Quite a bit has happened since I paused blogging. I will cover that later in this post. Time can slip by so easily and I have mentioned…

Expression

#241 I felt an urge to write. It has been a while since I have written on this blog and recently several different ideas have come to my mind and I’ve been trying to figure out how to share them. The best way to share these ideas seems to be by writing right here. I…

Generosity and Unexpected Kindness

#240 For this post, I had the idea to search for stories of random acts of kindness that have been recorded from all around the world and found several that encouraged me. I have attached four videos here and I understand if you do not have time to watch them all. I urge you to…

Cheer Up

#239 For the weekend…. post

Natural Environment

#237 Welcome back to “Captured”, a series of photographs released every Thursday . This week I am sharing some photos from a trip to a hiking trail that we took this week. Enjoy! Until Tomorrow, Eric  

The things that touch your soul

#236 Today while I was at the gym, I was touched by a little girl that I saw. I had almost finished my workout for that day and I went to the treadmill. I spotted this little girl jumping onto the treadmill and then jumping off and sticking her head in front of the fan….

Lost in the Middle of Time

#235 Have you ever stopped and took time to think about where you are and what your life on earth means? Sometimes, I can do most of my pondering while listening to soft piano music. This is how I find that moment, and I’m sure it is different for different people. It can be a…

Worship Albums are the Key to Entering Worship?

#234 Today as I was writing for this blog, I turned on Michael W. Smith’s latest worship album and thought about the entire tone that it holds from beginning to end. Studio albums are great and are the majority of what I listen to, but there are times when one wants to feel connected. Some…

Conformist

#233 Recently this idea came to my mind. Imagine a conformist; someone who adjusts to those around them and doesn’t appear to make their own choices. The immediate thought of this seems to be sadness, for me. I can’t imagine the grief that someone who lives like this must feel. They never really live their…

Live Today!

#232 Live your life by enjoying each day. Time will pass quick enough and you should cherish each second you are blessed with. This Saturday was really busy and I had back to back events. Once they began, I was going non-stop until later in the evening. A busy day could seem like an accomplishment…

Green grass and sunny days

Series of photos for this week

For me.

#229 This past week, I had a returning thought enter my mind. It was one of the themes that I had already posted on this blog and I considered it unique. The thought keeps re-entering my mind. To read more about it, you can view the post here: Dependence. I thought to myself, ‘Why do I…

Sacrificial Love

#228 This is a poem that I wrote a while ago and find on a sheet of paper. I wanted to share it here to be seen, but also to preserve it a bit longer. A world in hunger Knows not their hope will come from Some ordinary boards of lumber. The Hope of the…

i am n

#227 I recently bought the book “i am n” written by the Voice of the Martyrs and was astounded by the stories inside its pages. I kept looking through it and thought, ‘I think I’ll get this book’, and I did. The book is written about Christians who face Islamic Extremists. It tells of how…

Use Wisdom

#226 I was reading in a book recently titled: “Seeing Jesus in the Old Testament: The Wisdom of God”. I really liked reading through this book and found some profound advice. When we try to discern whether we or someone we know has heard from God about a specific subject, we should follow some steps….

Nothing to fear from lies

#225 I was reading in a book recently and found this powerful quote that I wanted to share. Read it carefully to fully understand what it is saying. “The man who fears no truths has nothing to fear from lies.” I was astounded with the truth and creativity in this quote. It may be a…

Sweet Delights

#223 Welcome back to “Captured”, a series of photographs released every Thursday. This week I am featuring some picture of cupcakes that my sister baked. She is an amazing baker/cake decorator and the photos turned out amazing. Until Tomorrow, Eric
