Disappointment is a part of life. Getting your hopes up can be problematic. When something you hoped for doesn’t come true, it hurts. The saving grace here is that time helps you get over things and offers needed perspective. Time can help you move on to other things to come and hopefully better.

The Digital Dust Has Settled
For the moment, I am done with renovations of my blog. I am using Twenty-Fourteen, which is an eleven-year old WordPress theme, to get the job done. It’s fun to take an old theme and soup it up with some current features to make it just work.
Some Funny Amazon Prime Packaging
I am a fan of smart and funny stuff. This Amazon Prime packaging has a very clever and very true slogan. Without someone ordering stuff, this package container is indeed empty on the inside. Well done Amazon package marketing and design team.
Time Flies When You Are Having Fun
I tend to get tunnel-visioned when it comes to the things I am interested in. When I am focused on doing something that fascinates me, I do lose all track of time and perhaps space. The one activity I can point to that sucks me in the most is blogging. Yep, blogging is my prime hobby and my greatest distraction. Everyone has things that make them lose track of time, and it is OK, sometimes.
Restore The Blogging Feeling
In doing some blog maintenance, I have discovered there are quite a few people I haven’t seen or heard from in a while. I do miss their presence in the blogosphere and what they have to say.
Now is the time to restore the feeling and create a post or two. Perhaps if we did more long-form blogging, we would understand one another better and share some cool stuff from our world view. So, my friends, let us all fire up WordPress or Tumblr if you will and create some new magic. Keep on blogging, good people.
Daily Prompt – Word Of The Day: Parishoner
I am a churchgoer. I have been a Baptist, Methodist and now Episcopalian. Church has been an important part of my life. So that makes me a parishioner. That word to me is about community, responsibility, and discipleship. This word I think is about inclusion, or it should be. Parishioners are about worship to a higher power or God if you will. They are also about service to one another. Being a parishioner is also a calling. It is about abiding in God’s love and the call to the people who gather in divine presence.
