Delicate and Hand-Picked Love - Take Walks with your Spouse to Spruce Connection

Since the quarantine quarter has flipped upon “stay at home” heads, my husband and I have been on many “walk-abouts” throughout the Outback of Houma and Thibodaux. .

We’ve walked, trekked, and hiked throughout trails of Godly love. We have bonded under Live Oak glimmer leaves and white-bloom Magnolia trees. We’ve chatted while Mocking birds added to the tea delight conversation. Woodpeckers clanked as souls planked o’er streets of deep heart beats.

If you want to reconnect with your spouse, take an engaging walk. Make sure to leave all distractions behind, especially your phone. Place all pettiness at home, and find your home in your soulmate’s heart-emblem eyes once again. .

Want to Spruce up your kinship to the hearts? Put on some comfortable clothes and stable tennis shoes and stabilize the marriage banks. Stroll under Blue Spruces and watch your husband pick a delicate love note. .

The effect of walking reciprocates joyful tendencies. .

Pace yourself under the canopies of kaleidoscope sun spots. Immerse yourself in God’s joyous presence. Plunge into your husband’s or wife’s mind. Then, happiness will plume.

Joy came yesterday as we walked the path behind our apartments. My husband strayed to the side of the road. He picked a lavender buttercup. He gently handed it to me as a delicate token of his love for me. .

I urge you to take “walk-abouts” with your loved ones, especially during this time. You’ll find a new-found “delicate and hand-picked love”.

I'm turning 30! Dad, I need you.

As I sit here by myself, with the electric fireplace glowing in the background, I think, “I can’t believe I’m going to be thirty next month.” March 16 th to be exact . I’m going to be a thirty year old woman like the woman acting in the Hallmark movie I’m watching. A new adventure awaits me as I stand atop the thirty year old mountain. As I overlook the adventurous summit, there is a pinnacle peak missing, my dad. I will be traveling emerald roads and picking fresh flowers without his guidance. What would he think of me now? Would he be proud of the woman I’m becoming? What godly words would he have spoken at this time in my life? My twenties stampeded by like a band of Mustangs over the plains of Montana. I remember turning twenty-one two seconds ago and taking a picture with my dad. Snap! Click! Memory day branded. That was the last year I would see my dad in pictures. ...

I Once Knew a Man

August 11th, 2008 will mark the 7th year anniversary of my dad's passing. The journey of grief has taken my family and I to many places, through the shadowy woods trying to tread towards the light and standing in the sunshine with God's warmth upon us. June 2013 was the year that my mom and I left our home in Michigan to be with my brother in Louisiana, who was pursuing a career in the oil field. We needed a fresh start, a new beginning, a start of a peaceful chapter. Michigan held many rooftop stamps (my dad owned his own roofing business) and camping "memory days". Sweet memories bloomed everywhere, amongst the country and in the suburbs. God decided that He wanted us to move to Houma, Louisiana, Cajun country, to build a new life. My dad was an original Southern man, born and raised in Central Louisiana, a little town called Beaver (nope, don't even look on a map, because you won't find it). Even though, I left my home in Michig...

Tap, Tap, Tap...Faith upon my Lap

This is a memory I’ve never blogged about. I love blogging because, I can write about feelings, love, faith, and somehow, lengthen my dad’s legacy. An imprint was left on my soul that spans the meadows of Cades Cove, which was my dad’s favorite vacation spot. On my heart, he tied a forever memory knot. . His faith also traversed the mountains of the misty Smokies. My dad’s surmountable trust in God bequeathed throughout “heartlands”. . One evening, gentle faithfulness nested in our townhome. My dad was in the end stages of his earthly life and was preparing his soul to go heavenly home. Even though, my dad wasn’t fully coherent due to morphine, he still comprehended God’s love. He still understood ounces of hope. I opened the creased pages of his coffee stained Bible. The word of God was torn and disheveled from years of usage. This was a Bible of a man after God’s own heart. . I opened to Hebrews… . Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about w...
