Today was a beautiful summer day. The sun was shining so brightly and the sky was filled with beautiful white clouds. I am so grateful for the chance to enjoy these beautiful days. There was a time when all I could see was darkness, even on a beautiful day like today. I thought of a friend that lived in that darkness and eventually chose to end his life by his own hand recently. I hope he has found some peace. I know that I am ever grateful that grace delivered me from those dark places in my mind. My heart now can best be described as a beautiful summer day. Bright and promising.
I started what I have named University at Home this week. I am somewhat formalizing my pursuits by writing down what I am doing to educate and expand my mind and skill set. I have three things, healthy body, healthy mind and healthy spirit. I have not exercised (walked) yet this week, so I need to do that tomorrow morning. I feel the need to keep my mind more active as my memory is really suffering from just watching TV. I started by playing some games on the computer and that has helped. Now I will continue to write down the things I am doing as a way of accountability and so I can have recorded some of the amazing delicious dishes I make. I am doing it all on the blogger because it would require too much paper or journals and I have neither the room or desire to store all of this information in my closet. I am doing it on blogger so I can access it no matter what computer I am using, or where. maybe someday my children will discover them and read them, when I am gone...it would give some insight to my life. If they are interested in that
