Restricted Vision, Unburdened Sight
Sometimes the things you can't see help you see more clearly!
On the dark side of the kitchen, I opened an upper cabinet door. Rummaging around, I must have caused something to shift from the very top shelf. A fairly sizable container came crashing down and cracked me on the brow bone—just missing my eye! Oh, did I fail to mention that the “dark side of … Continue reading Don’t Stand in the Dark
I recently experienced my first birthday without my mom, and in less than a week, another “first” is approaching—Easter. Nearly every Easter I can remember was spent with her. Even when I worked two states away, I made sure to be home for the holiday. Although we didn’t always spend the entire day together, or … Continue reading Look Toward the Tree
Throughout my sixty-plus years, I have walked through many seasons of life, and God has been steady throughout all of them. How can I be certain of this? I have proof! The majority of my writing will never be seen by anyone other than myself. I have accumulated boxes and boxes full of journals; some … Continue reading Visible Patterns and Textures

She never liked the bike because it wasn’t similar enough to … Continue reading Walk in the Light: Think Good, Positive Thoughts – Do Good, Positive Things
Do you have a home Church that you are part of? Our eternal home is not this world, so having a church community that we can call home here is so important. Being part of a Bible believing church that is filled with those that love and serve Christ is such an important aspect of … Continue reading Getting a Glimpse of Family
This post’s passage reference: Psalm 119:13-18. I have been moving things around a little bit here. With no field vision and very little peripheral vision, I can’t make big changes at one time. I stand the chance of causing myself to have a fall. I moved a single foot stool around the other day and … Continue reading Visualize What Comfortable Is
One of the most discouraging things about my vision difficulties is the loss of my driving privileges. I'm not whining, promise! There are just work-arounds that sometimes need to be done for normal, everyday things. Something I really miss is being able to jump in the car and run to the store. Within the past … Continue reading Sometimes Broken Eggs Look Beautiful
