I've been away!
My, where has time gone?
It's been two years since I last wrote an article here, where have I been, what have I learned and why am I back.
I'm back because I enjoy writing, not that I'm a particularly gifted; I just enjoy putting my thoughts into words.
Like many, I've spent several years and a considerable amount of money, pursuing the elusive "make money online with blah blah blah."
Now that we are in serious "World" financial difficulties, it's time we all re-access how and where we spend our money. Time to cut back our spending and refocus on paying down our credit card balances, paying extra on our mortgages, putting off those unnecessary purchases. Fortunately, for me, my children are grown and are no longer receiving financial support for their lives.
We can all learn from the experiences of others, when it comes to setting priorities in life; if only in rethinking why we are focused on a particular objective. Our goals and desires change as we travel the "road of life." This is a good point to interject, "what would Jesus have done?" I know of no better way to get refocused on what is important than to answer this question.
I'll be 62 in 4days! I've made more than my share of mistakes in my life. Personal, professional, raising my children, adult relationships, have I learned anything from these mistakes?
Age does make us "wiser," if for no other reason than we "view" life with a different set of eyes (no not weaker eyes, cataracts, glaucoma). Age lets us reflect on where we have been and where we still want to go or achieve.
As I begin to submit new material, I want to thank FaithWriters for providing this venue for us to express ourselves, to the many writers, here, who have encouraged and critiqued my work with words of encouragement and guidance.
