Hello Again

Hi blogger world!

I’ve had people suggest that maybe I should start blogging again, and if so, why not go back to where it all began.  Besides, I’ve started a couple of other blogs, and they just fizzled, so I guess I’ll just make this one “new” again by restarting.

Five years since I last blogged here.  Wow.  How on earth do you start again from that.  How do I recap my last five years in a condensed version (for the purposes of this blog)?  I’d like to recreate this blog into something that encompasses more elements of my life than before.  I’ve learned a lot about myself over these last several years, and I know now that I’ll be learning - hopefully - until God calls me home.

As I move forward here, I’d like to include elements about how I’m trying to get healthy again, about Aphantasia (that’s a whole ‘nutha big story right there), dating again at 53, recipes, crafts, just more about me as a whole person.  In a way, the blog was always about that, but I guess I shared more of my purely spiritual thoughts about my life, and to be honest I’m not always in that place.  I wish I were, but I guess no one is always there.  I’d like to share thoughts and stories, even when I don’t have a specific scripture to tie them to, although I love that I really can usually find scripture that relates to anything I’m going through.

Whereas recapping the last five years is concerned, maybe I shouldn’t worry about that right now, and just tell my story and how it relates to what I’ve gone through as things come to mind.  I love writing, and I love sharing my experiences with others, and so I’m really glad that a few friends pushed me to do this again.  I’m excited about making this blog more about me as a whole person, because I feel like I am becoming more whole all the time, by the grace of God.

I hope you will join me as I share the things that make me happy, the struggles I have, my creative side, and sometimes how Aphantasia (I’ll have a post about that soon) relates to what’s going on in my life.

Hope you have a wonderful day!
