Five Minute Friday: The Reality of Grief

By Sandra, on February 3rd, 2012%

I flip through the pages of Time Magazine until she breezes into the waiting room to invite me back.

“How are you today?” Her eyes sparkle, and the corners crinkle.

I flash a big smile. “Fine. Just fine!”

I climb up into the chair, and she pins the bib around my neck.

She flips on the reflector light, . . . → Read More: Five Minute Friday: The Reality of Grief

Be still

and know

I AM.

A Trying Adventure

By Sandra, on January 26th, 2012%

A fool says, “I can’t;” a wise man says, “I’ll try.” ~Charles Spurgeon

Dave Vander Laan posted this as a Facebook status yesterday.
