It is actually spring. After the winter that I have had, I couldn't be happier. I don't think that things really change with the seasons. But I am beginning to feel a little hopeful.
I talked to my sister tonight. To be honest, I have some misgivings about moving in with her. She can be difficult. But she seems so excited, and we have some common goals. I want to get in better shape. She wants someone who will walk with her. I love to bake and she needs someone who can help with her catering service. The Cottage Industry laws are fairly lenient there and I'd like to bake cakes and breads to sell at Farmer's Markets as well as my knitted wares. My sister tells me that people really like corn bread there. Who doesn't like cornbread? And I do it well. I might try a YouTube channel, Fat GRITS Meets The Pacific North West. I will live fairly close to a Renaissance Faire. I might try to get into some historical re-enactment. Okay, I know that I'm an old hippie. I admit it. If things don't work out, I can always get a job as a greeter at Walmart. I think...anyway.
Speaking of being an old hippie...Did y'all see the Worm Moon tonight? I didn't take that picture. I don't have a camera good enough to get a good shot. It was just simply astounding. I wasn't able to see any of the other super moons due to clouds. I was so glad that I got to see this one. I told God that the heavens do declare His glory. And the Earth does amaze me with His handiwork. God speaks to me a lot through the world around me. Lately His messages have been loud and personal. I know that some of you don't believe. Just please respect my faith and reality about this. Several years ago I was on my friends porch having my quiet time. I was praying about how I envy birds being able to just get up and fly away when they need to. While I was praying a sparrow came and landed on my knee. It looked me in the eye and then just flew away. I knew it was a message. Well something similar happened again. I was having breakfast in Beverly's kitchen and again praying about how I envied the birds their freedom. This time to build homes in any tree that suits them. When a sparrow flew up and perched on the window sill with pine straw in it's beak. It waited there until we made eye contact and then flew off. It made me feel like everything is going to be okay.
That's all I have. I hope you are well.
I hope everything turns out okay! Your special connection to sparrows might mean they are a totemic creature for you, connected to your soul.
ReplyDeleteGod sent you a message via the sparrow. it happens! Sounds like everything is going to be okay. :)
ReplyDeleteI saw the moon setting on Wednesday morning. Because of the perspective, it looked as big as a planet on the horizon. Spectacular.
ReplyDeleteI never make fun of an individual's beliefs. We all rely on various different things to navigate through life. As long as your (generic you) don't include wanting to harm others, I'm good with whatever.
It sounds like the move is a move in the right direction for you.
