LOVE CARRIES ON

Emma collapses into a chair, clutching this photo as if it might combust in her hands. She is crying, but makes certain to do it softly, so Kristoff won’t hear her. She was certain she’d thrown this picture away long ago! Their time together was so brief! Only a few months. He had come to Germany in... Sign in to see full entry.

OLD MADE NEW AGAIN

DIE LEIBESBRIEFFE (THE LOVE LETTERS) Leipzig, Germany-1983 A glorious August morning in Leipzig. Another Saturday has come round. Another chance for the couple living in the modest house on Aubel Strasse 13 to enjoy each other’s company. Which they truly do. Especially now that they are both... Sign in to see full entry.

SUMMERTIME!

Happy very first day of Summer, my friends! I hope that whatever your plans for the season, you have a great time! Just please stay safe and remember to drink lots of water when the weather is hotter. I started my Japanese course yesterday afternoon. I have to admit, I'm much better at that language...

A WORLD WIND TOUR

Since I'm going to be taking the summer away from face book, I've decided to give a few new (or in some cases, not so new) things a try. I have the sinking feeling that my brain is slowly but surely turning to mush! If I could, I would travel for the summer. There are still some many pieces of the... Sign in to see full entry.

BREAKING AWAY FOR A BIT

I've recently decided to take a long, long break away from face book starting tomorrow. I just feel like I need to spend less time there for a while. I will go back, but not until the end of summer, and not as often or for as long. I have other things I want to focus on, and I can't do that if I'm... Sign in to see full entry.

DISASTER HAS STRUCK! AGAIN!

Hi everyone... This isn't a post I'm going to enjoy writing, but I feel that so many of you have been kind enough to read my stories, however jumbled they may be, you deserve to know... My writing programme has been completely wiped out! I've since been able to re-install the programme, but all of... Sign in to see full entry.

BEYOND WORDS

My heart is broken for the victims of the night club shooting in Orlando, Florida earlier this morning. My prayers go out to them, and to their friends and families. Most especially to the survivors, who will have a long road of healing and recovery ahead of them. I pray our Father in Heaven will... Sign in to see full entry.

A TRUE CHAMPION

I was so sad today to hear of the passing of Mohammed Ali. I am not a boxing fan by any means at all. As a matter of fact, I hate the sport out right. I will never understand what could possibly be exciting or thrilling about clobberring someone to a pulp for no good reason other than making a good... Sign in to see full entry.

THE TALE CONTINUES

I’ve forgotten to mention that Eve hadn’t actually been created yet. She would be, in only a few day’s time. But, for the meanwhile, the poor human roamed the earth a solitary creature. I must say, I marveled at how he seemed to keep himself content. He never seemed to want for anything. The... Sign in to see full entry.
