Wednesday Wisdom: Water #WednesdayWisdom

Water is life. It is one of the first things made in creation. So much of our livelihoods are dependent on the stuff. For a believer its cleansing for the soul. H20 is a molecule and when there is a lot of it there can be hydration for the body, recreation for the spirit, power for our lives. It can be a way we receive nourishment and care.

When water becomes violent such as a storm or a hurricane then it becomes devastating. Water seems to always win. You can build things to retain it but still it wins. But on the riverbanks and at the lake it can be a place for people to gather to connect with one another.

Today, lets think about water in all the ways it is a significant part of our existence. Don’t forget to drink what you need and not waste any. Water is very much alive.

Daily Prompt – Word Of The Day: Learn

When one goes through some adversity whether it be internal or external you learn things about yourself you didn’t know.

I feel like when you go through things your prior experiences where you have been able to learn about how others cope is powerful and helpful for your future. Success and failure are two powerful teachers and the lessons you learn from both are valuable and necessary for personal growth and development.

Daily Prompt – Word Of The Day: Blossom

There is an old saying blossom where you are planted and for many that advice has served them well. It has served me well in some cases. People like plants need air, soil, water and sunlight in a matter of speaking in order to grow. Sometimes people need transplanting to a bigger pot in order grow more but often staying put can benefit you and the community you live in. Many people have found family, friends and connection being where they are and if one can find that it’s a true blessing.

Blossom was also a TV show starring Mayim Bialik from 1991 to 1995.

Daily Prompt – Word Of The Day: Awkward

Just so you know I am a nerd, geek, dork. That being said I am socially a bit awkward with people outside my friendship group. Not knowing how to relate to someone can be difficult, challenging, sometimes impossible. When you march to the beat of your own drummer and see the world from a different lens you are going to find it tough. Sure I am a dude but there is a good level of feminine influence that informs me about how to get along in the world. Doing things your own way can be freeing but hard. Everyone is awkward about something and that is alright.
