Journal Pages (Opening Up)

I hope these are legible and can be seen clearly enough. I lost a contact so am relying on eyes, glasses, and 3 power reading glasses. I rather not worry with the glasses so I tax my eyesight. All these journal pages were written eyes only.

I am struggling. So many needs, no one to turn to but God. He is who I should go to first, anyway.

The worship service at First Baptist Church of Abilene on Sunday has impacted my thought life ever since.

My insecurities over the state of my soul play plentifully as well.

I am posting this thinking it might be encouraging to someone else. Ah, but the other opinion that comes to mind is it might trouble someone and that is not my intent.

Funny thing: Facebook is advertising to me as if I am a lawyer. Right, (sarcasm), me with no college and in temporary penury. I once hoped to become a lawyer, but my life led other places.

Prompt: Did your life turn you in unexpected directions? Create something about your situation.

GRATITUDE LIST

I am attending (some) church again. First Baptist Church of Abilene is my new church home. I Love my church. I hope to get there with more regularity in the future.
My best friend, Reba, does not desert me though I likely do not deserve her Love.
I have the tools I need to write and the ability to do it.
I have a poem appearing in Villa Rica News and Views’ April Issue.
Always thankful for music, reading, and writing.

I pour myself out in ink sometimes. Writing on my devices is not quite so raw. Do you find your creativity comes in different flavors according to the implements you use? I am using my phone for the text parts of this post. I also took the images of my pages with it and left them unedited.

Alex is after me to write a book, any book. He says my talent should make me money. He also asks do I want all my work to die with me? Morbid, but craftily motivational are his speeches. What a wonderful son I have, even with us often upsetting one another.

I guess I should let this go. Thank you for visiting Haphazard Creative. I hope you found something to challenge you and make you examine yourself.

Truly!

Today, and most times, I am amazed at the glorious around, within, outside, about us. The world we have is astounding.

Prompt: Take a deep breath! Pick one thing in your environment that makes you smile. Create something to allow others to experience it as you do.

We have instant access to such an abundance, and miracles happen consistently. Technology puts magic at our fingertips. There is no limit to what we can create.

What are you grateful for today? List at least five things, or more if you wish.

Who do you need to share your Love with today? All sentient beings deserve recognition but focus on one of them all.

May the Lord surround you in abundant blessing now and evermore.

NoTiCe!

Haiku 4/26/2024

Prompt: Perhaps you should write a haiku or few today. If you desire, share them with me.

Popping in out of nowhere to share a few thoughts spare. I hope this finds you well and creating still.

I am in the sultry state of Texas and must say this Georgia Peach is unaccustomed to such 🥵 heat. Thank the blessed Lord for air-conditioning.

I am thankful:

1. There is not lots of rain since the dogs track in this awful black slurry when it does.

2. I have Kindle ebooks to read.

3. I brought shorts upon leaving on short notice.

4. I have frequent showers.

5. Food is not lacking here.

What are you thankful for today? Share it in the comments should it please you.

I can leave the house and be in Mexico within minutes. I finally have access to a vehicle in which to do so. I am not accustomed to driving in Brownsville because I have done very little of it.

Working on my phone.

I hope life is treating you well. Remember to express your ❤️ love to others as ever you may. Let yesterday be buried and tomorrow find its way, live my dear in the moment, today. God bless you and yours in every way.
