Something Funny For A Monday
This is a bit over-the-top, but the sentiment is understandable. Granted there will be people putting up Christmas trees on Halloween night for sure. All I say is let Halloween and Thanksgiving have their moments in the spotlight.
Now for those who have already put up Christmas ware because you wanted something bright and beautiful to be in your homes then more power to you. We all need that.

Why You Should Blog Reason #1018
I have often thought blogging is very therapeutic and gives you a chance to share your woes with others in the same boat. Right now, we need that support for one another. Thanks for your candor and sharing your experiences that can help everyone make it through another day.
As I always say, keep on blogging my friends.
Sunday Reflection: Saving Yourself, Saving Others #SundayReflection
Every person at some point needs saving from something that can mean bad news for them. How that rescue comes varies and is a very individual thing. We find ourselves in a storm that life sends our way, and we need shelter. It could mean you are in trouble and you need someone to bail you out.
For some their higher power is that source of help that can save them from calamity while other folks rely upon their community, friends, partners to help pull them out of certain destruction.
For me I have been gifted grace from my creator. Whereas others are gifted grace by other means. All of which are good. It’s that grace that provides comfort, security, love, and peace.
We all have situations that require a helping hand from somewhere to pull us out of dark places and spaces. It can be tough to ask for that help especially if you aren’t used to asking for it or there is a trust issue that prevents you from seeking that assistance.
My friends, I hope you will reach out and to be safe in your life’s circumstances. We are all in the boat of life together. Saving yourself sometimes means asking for someone to save you and vice versa.
