Prayer

Dear friends,
i pray every day and a lot each day. I have a special prayer time when i get up and sit in front of my prayer table with my buddhist monk and candles and affirmation cards and flowers and things that make me happy. I am a simple prayer and pray for people needing my prayers and i do general prayers and then specific prayers. WHatever is on my mind.
I pray throughout the day and generally chat to God. I'm not sure when I started this in earnest but it becomes more and more each day.
On sunday I joined a prayer chain at my church and a friend called me a prayer warrior the other day which made me feel really good.
Do you pray?

Changes

Dear friends,
I was doing a question a day on a couple of web sites and here on my blog but have had another change in my routines and decided not to blog everyday. I like reading entries so will just check in as the mood strikes me. I have just survived another 3 week quiet flat phase. For the first time I kept a little journal of things that happen during my quiet phase as I find it more difficult to understand whereas zippy and creative is so understandable and visual whereas my quiet phase is more spiritual and quieter. I was fascinated to see that I watch DVDs, read kids books, do cross words, walk more, contact my mum more and visit more. I am more silent and less chatty and don't have the urge to do things. I had the first quiet time where I didn't want to go into zippy I wanted to stay quiet. How strange that was. i am now happily in my next zippy phase with heaps of art work out and things to do and the desire to go on adventures.

One day at a time

Dear friends,
I have a busy few weeks ahead and concerned how I will cope with it. I am trying to focus on today and let the other days arrive one at a time. I often overwhelm myself but get through taking a step at a time.
Do you get overwhelmed? Do you take a day at a time?

recuperating

Dear friends,
I am having to take it easy since being unwell. It is challenging being patient with myself and not in a hurry to get well. Are you patient when you are unwell?

comfort

Dear friends,
While I have been sick my mum has rung me every day to see how I was and to offer comfort and support and assistance if I needed it. She has been a great comfort. Who is a great comfort to you?

Sickness

Dear friends,
I have been sick with gastro for a few days and I have had flashbacks to when I was very sick and housebound for days at a time and unable to get help. It was scary times. I got a bit scared this time even though there were friends to call. Have you ever had scary times when you have been ill? How have you gotten through those times?

Computer and me sick

Dear friends, My computer was sick for over a week and just back and then I got sick with gastro and still not a hundred percent. i will get back to my question a day which i enjoy when I am feeling better. Gastro sure does take it out of you. Wishing you all the very best.
