Looking for grace notes in life's journey…. Can digital work survive like paper? August 24, 2016. August 24, 2016. For the past month I’ve been listening to the soundtrack from the hit play. Based on the book. But they were also savable. Keepable. And findable. Readable. And re-producable. I can’t help but wonder, as I write away on my keyboard, if the words I save to my blog will be readable hundreds of years from now, if they’re only in digital form? Here’s an interesting post. Letters, or rather, my l...

Writing the story | Grace and Life
https://graceandlife.com/2015/07/09/writing-the-story
Looking for grace notes in life's journey…. July 9, 2015. Hello friends, I’ve missed you. I hope you’ve missed me. When life is chaotic, complicated, unsettled, up in the air, I retreat. I retreat to my shell, pull back, my instinct is to turn inward. I don’t write. Or rather, I write for myself, as a means of hashing out and sorting through and making sense. But when the clouds clear and I’m on track again, I’m ready. Ready to resume, to reach out, to reconnect. While I’ve been on pause, I’v...I’d...

Looking for grace notes in life's journey…. The truth hurts; or…the truth will set you free. August 4, 2015. March 21, 2016. Last week was intense. I spent my days at a small retreat center in St. Helena, in Napa Valley, California. Does that sound stressful? I took part in a residential program hosted by The Hoffman Institute. Forty students and six teachers gathered to spend the week learning, sharing, exploring, and confronting. It was a hard week, for some more than others. Example: I give myself, an...

Looking for grace notes in life's journey…. May 20, 2015. May 20, 2015. My view of the Tongass Narrows, looking out from the window of our house in Ketchikan, was a never-ending parade of activity: sea life, ships, boats, float planes. I loved that view. But last fall, we sold the house and gave up the parade. My view right now is not mine to keep, but it. I don’t own anything here, but I have the pleasure of enjoying the view for a few weeks.

Happy 5th Birthday Riley-girl! | Grace and Life
https://graceandlife.com/2015/04/22/happy-5th-birthday-riley-girl
Looking for grace notes in life's journey…. Happy 5th Birthday Riley-girl! April 22, 2015. April 22, 2015. It’s a big day for this little. She’s a whole handful today. Just like when it was her mom turning five, I can’t believe it’s come so quickly. I’ve watched her for five years, and she’s been a joy. What a bundle of energy, and what a funny little girl she is. She’s always got something to say, and most of the time it’s dramatic and unexpected. She’s an old soul in a five-year old form. You are comme...

More Alaska | Grace and Life

Looking for grace notes in life's journey…. July 25, 2015. August 3, 2015. Last week, one evening after work, we found a new park. It shouldn’t be a surprise by now, but I’m still caught off guard every time I discover an unexpected jewel. This is what we saw:. This has been a traveling week. It began Monday with all sorts of bumps and changes. Weather was an issuefoggy and rainy, so the planned float plane trip to the airport became a ferry ride. And let’s face ita missed flight or delayed travel rarely...

Happy 75th to my mom! | Grace and Life
https://graceandlife.com/2015/07/03/happy-75th-to-my-mom
Looking for grace notes in life's journey…. Happy 75th to my mom! July 3, 2015. July 3, 2015. This post is a week late. My mom turned 75 last Friday, June 26. I didn’t do a blog post that day. I don’t think I wished her a happy birthday on Facebook. For the big day, I did better than digital media. We noticed that there are holes in the fabric of the family. Some are gone, and are sorely missed. My roots are firmly southern, based in a small Mississippi town. The two are entwined, family and heritage.

Looking for grace notes in life's journey…. Growing up, growing an audience. June 11, 2016. Follow my blog with Bloglovin. Most of my blogging has been for fun, as a creative outlet, a way to learn and experience technology, and a way to pry open my shell a bit. For all I’m a talker (once I open up), most of the time, I can sit quietly and keep to myself with no difficulty. I’m more introvert than extrovert. See you on the playground!
