Minnesota to Texas via I35

…of course best of all was seeing family I have not seen is a few years. It is kind of funny, I find myself not saying much, but rather just enjoying the interaction between them. I suppose that is my family link. We change as we get older, but I think we act almost the same way all our lives.

Minnesota day five

I may be more aware of this than many people, it could be one of the things that living in many different places over the years does to you. You become more aware that forever does not exist, and no matter how much we may not want it to happen, nothing stays the same, and people change, move, or grow old.

In Minnesota on vacation

Woke up this morning to light rain, perhaps drizzle. It has been so long since I have been anywhere where the rain last for more than twenty or so minutes, it was a pleasant change to my morning.

On the road day 2

I enjoy watching the lanscape and the slowly change from sand, rock, and cactus to rich soft earth, rolling hills, fields of wheat and corn.

On the road day one…

We stopped for a lunch of sorts in a small town, Hooker, Kansas. They have a very pretty park with picnic tables, shrubbery, and trees. We found one table bathed in shade. Lunch was nothing special, just some lunch meat, cheese, and bread, and a glass of water.

I Need and Let’s Be Real

Usually we listen to both I Need and Let’s Be Real all day long as thoughts run through our minds and counter thoughts or counter possibilities follow shortly. Normally we are not even aware these things are going on until someone points it out to us, such as right now.

Fishing or fishing, it was a great week!

I love to fish, it doesn’t matter what the species as long as it is catchable. I wanted both of them to catch the biggest fish of their summer, so I took them fishing for Carp.

Love, respect, esteem, and you

There are so many influences on us growing up as children that having self respect and self esteem in one area of our lives seems to be something others have, but we can not find them in us. We think about us and we find we are too this, and too that. We think we are never perfect, or even okay. It is time to change this thinking and put some correct thinking in its place.

Teenage frustration and awkwardness

No matter how awkward, unloved, or useless you may feel, you need to know that these thoughts are what you think people think about you. In fact everyone in your life loves and cherishes you as much as they ever have, but they are getting you ready for the adult world.

Death, dying, awareness, and perspective

…as I listened to a mother with four children yelling, and telling her children how bad and stupid they are. I was thinking…what would she prefer to tell them if she knew that shortly after she loaded everyone into the car and left the parking lot a fatal accident….
