Some-times… By Alana Tobin
Some-times…
By Alana

… words are an assault, even with the most loving of intentions – (words even care-fully considered) are as daggers...and attitudes of optimism and philosophical principles shared without respect for the pain… (whether inside ourselves or another), are as fruitless as planting seeds in cement...and as intrusive as a hypodermic needle shot into a wound…Lacking in empathy and compassion, even though our intent is one of promoting healing, we are ever so much all of us, encountering opportunities to learn the ways as to how we can genuinely care for ourselves and extend that caring to others.
Have you ever pondered about sharing abundance concepts to a homeless lady or man on the street, as if to assume they must not know about such laws or principles or about how they create their own reality, for surely if they did, they would not be homeless…And do you dare to ask your self what about this situation or person am I uncomfortable with here? And why do I feel the need or desire to effect change in this instance at all?….we don't even know their story...or how it is they came to be where they are at...

Howdy Friends
Ok, so why am I writing a blog. Well, lets see... I have all of this information in my head that is just sitting there doing nothing it seems like. So, I am going to start a blog.
I have no idea what I am going to share at the moment but at least this is a start. My interests are God, Mommyhood, designing and constructing homes which has been my love and profession for over 20 years, gardening, homesteading, being silly, homeschooling, cooking, preserving foods (canning and dehydrating) and I love adventures. I do have a tendancy to get on my soap box from time to time about what is going on in our beautiful country - but I will try to keep that to a minimum, I promise.
I feel as if it is one of my jobs as a human being to spread sunshine to others. Times are hard for many these days and if each person could make just one person smile or do a nice thing for someone each day - that one act of kindness could change a persons life forever. In my experience this is very true. I smiled, joked and laughed with a man and his son while playing pool with them along with my friend many years ago. Several years later I learned that nights fun through laughter saved the fathers life. He was having his last night out with his son before taking his life. This man is still alive today because of a simple smile. True story!
Well, I guess you can say I just wrote my very first post. Wow! that was easy.
One Love!
