The past two nights I have gone out to Lake Hefner and watched the sunset. It's so beautiful out there, peaceful and quiet. I sat on the ledge of the concrete barrier and watched people fish, felt the breeze off the water, and pondered existence. Sometimes I have to make myself have quiet time, away from phones and computers and people. I admit that I have a fear of quietness because I don't always want to hear what my mind has to say. But, I also recognize that when I slow down I hear God better and I so crave some spiritual uplifting in my life right now. I'm not getting it through church and it will probably be that way for a while so I have to seek it elsewhere. Not that my relationship with God is rocky right now b/c it's not but I haven't put much effort into prayer lately and I can feel that void in myself. So, I'm making a conscious effort to reconnect with myself and hear more of what my instincts tell me.
Praying for Shelly right now--melanoma related brain tumors and a rocky future ahead. Hang in there girl.
