Reflection

2223) Because I’ve been a teacher for so long, I am now teaching my students’ children and even my students’ grandchildren. It’s interesting for me to see how these offspring are like their parents/grandparents.   It might be as simple as facial appearance to body movements. These kids reflect the image of my former students.

On Demand

2222) Our technology has grown by leaps and bounds. With a few clicks, we can watch or listen to almost anything on demand.   When I see this phrase, On Demand, I wonder how this is shaping us as a society. Do we get so used to this on demand that we expect everything to

Go Away?

2221) In my language arts classroom, we study lyrics to songs old and new for their literary value (or not) and what we think the author is trying to communicate.   One day, a young scholar asked me to play the “go away” song. I frowned in thought and then it hit me. “You mean

A Time for Beauty

2220) There are some things that start out plain or even ugly but contain moments of beauty. These can include flowering plants or horrific circumstances.   Those of us who have lived several decades have a better understanding that some of the most heartbreaking times have their moments of beauty.   The writer of Ecclesiastes

Effort

2219) Anyone who has had pneumonia and the flu knows how much energy has drained out of their body. I can remember how much effort it took to walk from the house to the mailbox.   Putting these thoughts together with Matthew 11:28 helps me to remember not to waste my waning energy on things

Banners

2218) It’s interesting for me to notice how people “advertise” their values and personalities in specific ways on different banners.   It might be words on a t-shirt. A car or truck may have a clever bumper sticker. It might even be a flag flown from your personal flagpole.   Whether we have literal messages

Have not Will

2217) As a writer and experienced teacher, I have grown to acknowledge that words and how they are used are important.   When words like always or never are used, it paints a picture of the outcome you might expect when proceeding a verb. You always do that. You never clean up.   There is

Getting Even

2216) From time to time, I see my young scholars standing back-to-back trying to figure out who is taller.   It’s amusing to me because I frequently see one of the two standing a little on their toes to make themselves taller.   Though the kids want to seem taller, in the social world, I

Barking

2215) We recently went on a trip to a beautiful place on a lake near the border of Canada. We took our little dog Cayce with us.   We spent a few days doing quiet things like going for walks, reading on the porch and going for a boat ride. Cayce went with us in

What Looks Versus What Is

2214) The older I get, the more I understand that what I see isn’t always what reality is.   We all see the world through the lenses of our experiences, and yet, good and evil exist regardless of how we see them.   Seeing this world in its spiritually fallen state can be hard to
