Leaving the Nest

Leavin the nest....

Tomorrow begins a new chapter in my life; for the first time in over 20 years I will be separated from my mother by about 1500 miles, but she will always remain near in my heart. I know she will enjoy getting to know my sister better, and meeting lots of new friends. I love you Mom, and owe you my life. Be well and blessed <3 I'll always be your baby-thank you for taking such good care of me, and teaching me how to be a better person.

Terrific Tuesday!

Today- Tuesday-October 12, 2010- (1 Corinthians 13:1-3) we will hold another medical clinic, where we will see and treat over 200 patients with the help of some doctors and nurses from Haiti. Patients will also receive food, and hear the Gospel. Many are saved through this ministry, which is totally a God thing-because Voodoo is very big in Haiti.  But through our team voodoo priests have been saved!! Isn't that amazing?  I think it is-so I hope I get to witness God working to make that happen! Please pray specifically for- ·      That every action, word, and thought will be done in love~ ·     For God to multiply their resources so that all needs will be met, both spiritual and physical        Miraculous healings and salvations     Talk to you Wednesday!!     Be Blessed~      Rhonda

The Way We Were~

Mem'ries light the corners of my mind Misty water-colored mem'ries of the way we were Scattered pictures of the smiles we left behind Smiles we gave to one another for the way we were Can it be that it was all so simple then Or has time rewritten every line If we had the chance to do it all again, tell me, would we, could we Mem'ries may be beautiful and yet What's too painful to remember We simply choose to forget So it's the laughter we will remember Whenever we remember the way we were The way we were You remember this song, right? There was also a movie with Barbra Streisand and Robert Redford. A love story. Well, I've had a love story of sorts with my mom all my life. That's how it should be between a mom and her daughter(s), right?  I am so blessed that's how it was with me. My mom is an incredible person, and even though Alzheimer's disease has stolen her memories from her, they are still etched in my mind and hear...

What the Wizard of Oz taught me.

Last year about this time, I bought a used camera from a photography friend.  It was quite an upgrade from the camera that I had been using, and it was a great deal.  I thought I needed it to somehow improve my photography; maybe it would make my pictures more heartfelt or make people notice them more or make me a better photographer.  I don't do photograph for a living. I do it as a passion because I always said when it became like work it wouldn't be a passion anymore,  and it wouldn't be fun. I kept that camera for a whole year, and I forced myself to use it every chance I got.  On a recent trip to Hawaii I even ONLY took that camera because then I would only have that camera to use.....nothing to fall back on.   I never fell in love with that camera, not the way I loved the one I've been using for years. I had sort of a Dorothy/Wizard of Oz epiphany.  I realized I've had what I needed all the time; it's right here in my heart. You see, I don'...
