tbV and i have not really been in regular consistent church services for the last two years now and so it's been really refreshing to find one called Re:Generation that we both enjoy and love going to. in particular being a part of corporate worship has been so refreshing and since we haven't been around for a little while there are a bunch of new songs to discover which is great. one song in paricular [...]

another great wordpress photo challenge theme and so many different places where i could take this from but i decided this time to rather focus on one area - that of improv and my time with TheatreSports, now called Improguise, in South Africa who i got to spend about 11 years with making stuff up with and really just one of the most amazing opportunities and things to be a part of... like 'Whose Line [...]
well, actually, this pome is titled 'If' but po-tay-to, po-tah-to... my wife linked to this the other day and i remembered what a powerful read it was... hope you enjoy [especially if this is your first time... and it works for women too by the way!] 'If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you, If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, But [...]
this is not a completely happy psalm. here we see David once again, who was the same guy who brought us this in Psalm 23: 1 The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing. 2 He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, 3 he refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name’s sake. 4 Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with [...]
Wot another great theme, the great ones being ones open to a range of interpretation... so many pictures, so little space, but had a variety of shots that jumped out at me to use in this post, each bringing their own personal flavour to this Patterned Buffet: Clockwise from the top left we have: # the patterm formed by row upon row of white fluffy cloud hovering over the water and nature scene [...]

Some days, as a stay-at-home mom, I literally find my self walking around the house, doing nothing… Please note: this is NOT because I am lazy or that there is nothing to being a stay-at-home mom (and part-time freelance writer, let me just add – by the way, why do I feel like I have to justify myself?!)Anywhoo…If I decide to sit down in front of the computer to do some writing, Alex starts climbing up [...]
