Up to speed

Cha.
It's been six years since setting up this quiet corner of the internet! Life remains simple and slow.
It's a public holiday today in this beautiful island of mine. It's also hot and dry and brown and dusty from a drought we are experiencing.
Sunning the pillows today. Ate a simple meal and am now thinking of making some muffins a little later on. Choices. Some people in this world have very little room to play around with decisions. Still.
So what's been up? Too many things. Yet, I'm still thankful.
Church is still beautiful; or more beautiful now that I am getting older. If I could only make people see how good being a part of the body of Christ is! Still, I will try to shine what light I have so somebody may be caught in its beam.
I'm enjoying life; not work, but life. I was transferred nearly two years ago and I haven't adapted up to now. It really isn't what I would have wished for in many ways, yet in others it can be quite enjoyable.
My immediate neighbourhood remains unchanged; no deaths or additional families. Thank you Lord that life is still the wonderful gift it ever was.
Still, looking on at the situation in the world makes me wonder how long we can go on like this: war, climate change. Scary. Still, the universe is unfolding as it should.
Catching up is good, but I still don't know how some people manage to write so often.
Maybe I will find out one day.
