May the Truth of God, which does not change, give you great peace in this time of uncertainty. Focus on His things. Ancient but timeless. Love, Lisa

Reinvention
I know of a woman who was a lifelong landscaper, active, moving, walking on all sorts of surfaces without a moment’s thought. After an accident, several surgeries, and fusions, she was left unable to work. She is now a self-employed custom cookie designer, and has a thriving home-based business. Reinvention over adversity.
I know of a man who developed extreme arthritis from many years of hard physical labor. He has now turned his talents to small wooden works of art, which he sells in local and regional art venues. Reinvention over adversity.
I discovered today a wonderful photographer based in Donegal, Ireland. James O’Donnell suffered an almost fatal electrocution on his London workplace fifteen years ago. He is working and thriving today in Donegal with his faithful sidekick, Iggy, a lovely border collie. Watch the video below to see some of his amazing photography. Reinvention over adversity.
As long as there is life, there is hope. As long as there is God, nothing is impossible. As long as you have breath, praise the Lord. 🙂 Reinvention over adversity.

The Road to Beautiful
If I had a flying carpet, this is where I would fly. Right now. 🙂
Memories of past beauty and hope for things to come.
We will either be flying to heaven or flying somewhere, just a matter of time and patience.
Flying to beautiful.

Love Things
Love is…..
…..seeing the face of the one you love, blind to everything else around.
That is me when I was there, and when I see this photo now. Beauty everywhere, but all I can see is that smile.
Tell the ones you love you love them. Love, Lisa
What You’re Looking For
There is an old saying, “You will find what you are looking for.” This reminds me of the time my husband and I were looking for a certain castle near the Burren. We thought we had followed the inconspicuous signs correctly, and we pulled up in front of an impressive building full of hope and upcoming adventure.
We knocked and tried to gain access to said castle, and finally a very nice gentleman came to the door and asked if he could help us. We asked to take a tour of the castle, and he politely told us that this was a private home. 🙂
In our minds, it was a castle, and looked like a castle. To the man who lived there, it is his castle. So, I guess it’s a castle.
What we look for is often what we find. Good or bad….a lot of times it is how we choose to look at something. Love, Lisa
P.S. By the way, if you are reading this, and this happens to be your home….it is beautiful! 🙂
