Treasuries of Joy: The Morning After...
http://treasuriesofjoy.blogspot.com/2013/03/the-morning-after.html
Monday, March 18, 2013. Yesterday afternoon/evening we had another major storm/snowfall. This time the wind picked up and created major drifts, even in White Bear. Here's hoping it's the last of the season. The neighborhood dogs were really having fun. All I can say is: at least something is enjoying this indecent amount of snow. One of my favorite shots. Yours truly, shoveling out the top of the driveway. Lydia took over. I love this picture of her. It's -31* C. outside so the snow is pretty fluffy.

Treasuries of Joy: Some Not Resolutions
http://treasuriesofjoy.blogspot.com/2015/01/some-not-resolutions.html
Friday, January 2, 2015. I dislike new year's resolutions. I don't know why, exactly, but they seem empty somehow. BUT: there are a lot of people making resolutions. It made me think about what I want and how I feel. I want to be happy. I have spent so much of my life being miserable. I don't have TIME to be unhappy or stay mad at someone or be scared. Walk away; choose my battles wisely. When I do choose, I want to do the right thing completely, fully and without hesitation. I never want God to be prosa...

Friday, January 2, 2015. I've never known anyone who was what he or she seemed; or at least, was only what he or she seemed. People carry worlds within them. It's true. Humans are complications. Aliens hate us.). Some people are more in control of their minds but we mostly choose the thousands of thoughts without conscious thought.

http://treasuriesofjoy.blogspot.com/2013/04/self-worth-forgiveness.html
Wednesday, April 3, 2013. The article can be found here. If you're curious, take a look. The fact is, I am fighting these tendencies all day long. At one point I could check off every item listed in this article. Jesse has never wanted or encouraged them, in fact, something he often says is, "What do you think? Or "What would you do? He has struggled to help me on towards a more healthy place, mentally and emotionally. To forgive is to set a prisoner free and discover that the prisoner was you. The most ...

Thursday, May 16, 2013. Things I Like About Today. I would be so lost without it. Who will pick up lemons for me. Who gave us a queen bed. We don't have to buy one now.

http://treasuriesofjoy.blogspot.com/2014/05/vulnerability-sanest-place-to-be.html
Thursday, May 15, 2014. Vulnerability: the Sanest Place To Be. We're going to Europe. That is what's on my mind. I should probably be looking for places to stay in Frankfurt. And researching good, cheap places to eat for foodies in the Black Forest. Which shop sells the best chocolate in Switzerland? I CAN'T WAIT TO VISIT THE MARKET PLACES IN GERMANY! Am I more. me?

Treasuries of Joy: The Ugly Duckling of Life
http://treasuriesofjoy.blogspot.com/2013/04/the-ugly-duckling-of-life.html
Thursday, April 25, 2013. The Ugly Duckling of Life. Be gracious unto me,. For I am in distress;. Is wasted from grief;. And my body also. For me, forgiveness and compassion are always linked: how do we hold people accountable for wrong doing and yet at the same time remain in touch with their humanity enough to believe in their capacity to be transformed? We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope. Martin Luther King, Jr. These imaginings of mine might bear some truth. Perhap...
