Knowing me!

To my darling, Knowing me is hard – very often, I don’t even know what I am thinking and feeling.  Sometimes – often – my own thoughts are a mystery to me.  I know that is because I was told for so long what to think and feel, and it wasn’t part of who I…

Our House!

Faithful Fridays – Understanding!

F  A  I  T  H  F  U  L Understanding! Who doesn’t want to be understood?  Who doesn’t want to have that feeling of, “this person really gets me”…  We all do.  In fact, that is very often how we define a soul mate – someone who really “gets me”.  Now, let’s be honest.  Some people…
