Hey, Haven’t I Seen That Before?

likes-reblogsWhen you decide to re-blog your own stuff or take an old post and freshen it up a bit that can be a good thing. An old post can be seen in a new light by new eyes who are just now discovering your blog.

When your creative juices are running low, you can find inspiration from things you have done before. Be careful not to get too repetitive but enjoy the process of introducing your followers to your blogging journey. I would advise doing a short introduction to the post you are re-blogging to set up context and to let folks know this is a golden oldie.

It can be  fun to take a look back until new ideas for new posts come along.

Like Minded People, Just Saying

I am coming to a conclusion that I need and crave the company of like-minded people. Defending ones beliefs and opinions constantly is exhausting. Sure its good to have people who challenge you but I am kind of weary of the fear some have these days. It is really hard to be a progressive in a place where some folks are holding on to the old ways in a very aggressive way. I try to be open-minded but sometimes you have to make your stand to advance the cause of the least of these, the less fortunate, the person who is marching to the beat of their own drummer, the LGBTQ person, the people who want access to life, liberty and happiness. Yes I am a liberal and I wear that title proudly. May God bless and keep us all as we each try to figure this thing called life out.

Welcome Back Bloggers

Welcome back to all the long lost bloggers out there. Here’s to continuing to tell your story. Keep on blogging my friends. The blogosphere is better with your continued contributions.

Thought Of The Day 062817

Grace is a wonderful thing to give to others and yourself. It’s always available to those who need it.

Quote Of The Day

​”I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I intended to be.” ~Douglas Adams

Doing The Best You Can

One might think they are doing the best they can, however in the eyes of others are they? You always wonder if your efforts are truly making a difference or could you work harder. Even the people who are at the top of their field wonder am I giving it my all. Doing the best you can should be all anyone should expect even though they might not deserve it.

You also wonder if the people who give raises and opportunity are seeing you do your best when it counts the most. Praise is always good in this situation.

Sometimes we all wish others would give their best because so much of the burden is carried by ourselves. Without our best nothing gets accomplished. We all have to make things happen in all facets of life but there are times when we don’t want to do the best we can because we are just tired of it all.
