What is Nurturing Thursday, you ask?
Think about it … In our amazing but highly competitive and aggressive society:
- How many of us truly feel good about ourselves?
- How often do we extend to ourselves … the same courtesies, considerations, nurturing, forgiveness and understanding we bestow a loved one, a friend, or even a stranger?
With the ongoing intention to accept myself with an open heart rather than label myself as “good” or “bad” OR a “success” or “failure” … I challenge myself, and I challenge YOU to treat ourselves with the same kindness, caring, and compassion we show a good friend. My goal for this year continues with striving and thriving in an atmosphere of self-compassion and self-kindness in my life. What about you?
To “give this planet a much needed shot of fun, support and positive energy” … I dub Thursdays as Nurturing Thursday.
If any of my readers are interested in joining the nurturing, I applaud and welcome you to do so … the more the merrier!!

A shift in perspective can make all the difference.

Ahhh … thank you, Becca. She’s always looked like my hubby. In the last year, she’s started to change a bit. It was an incredible event filled with all the magic of love. 😍

Profound quote.
Jack Kerouac asked, What’s your road?
I found my road paved with writing, photography and creating artwork but sadly I keep getting unexpected and unwanted Detours.

Good point. I work in a toxic work environment and every day I ask God what I’m doing wrong. There’s an argument nearly every day and as much as I try to avoid controversy. Last month I was injured at work. I got hit in my left eye. Half my friends say that I should stay because I can’t afford to retire. The other half say Go because my health has been adversely affected.
The only good thing to come from daily physical and emotional pain is I pray and read my Bible scriptures more. Also I have been producing more art to take my mind off my job.
