My desk tomorrow?


And here's hoping how it should be looking pretty soon.

Happiness!

My desk. My desk. My desk. My desk.


Returning from a maternity leave of three months, I was welcomed by heaps of paper at my desk. Mostly untouched unfinished files. Some mailers and stuff left on top of what's there. No less horrorific for a mom of three kiddies but horrorific just the same. It dawned on me my reality. I'm swamped.

Barely two weeks back I have yet to fully recondition my brain to function at its usual best, memory gap and all. I'm a little anxious to do checklisting because I know it will feel like to much too soon. It is however what I perceive now to be the better way for me to start- still.

So I am bringing home my notebook and I am going to reorganize my thoughts and get things back into perspective. Its going to take time before that desk clears up. But its a start.

New post. New tasks. Feels like I'm going to have to reinvent my wheel.

Contentment is key


We are as happy as we make ourselves to be, so they say.

Be it what we have and own. Be it where we live, what we drive or how we look.

Simple needs. Simpler wants. Lesser material desires- spells a happier contented life. A healthier self love is so essential to having the right disposition to a life or a beauty makeover.

Here's to us enjoying who we are or have become- and not what which we think defines us.

Hand to God the Impossible


That's what my subscription message said tonight.

Hand to God the impossible.

We have a 24/7 limit to time. And we are as capable as only He enables us. We should be constantly reminded of our own nothingness and God's greatness. Otherwise we will fool ourselves that we can in fact address the impossible by ourselves.

Cest la vie. Such is life. It is not fully our own. Let's lift it all up to God- All possibilities. All impossibilities.

Grace alone.


My grace is sufficient...assured Jesus.
What a wonderful promise. So comforting in a world that keeps telling us that we don't have enough. That we need more. It is a stuggle to go against the grain of the exact opposite. Yet to adhere to God's simple truths, to trust in simply that- makes the difference between chaos and order, peace and anxiety, shopping and window shopping, savings and debt.

We can always choose to believe in enough and we most certainly can hang on to grace.

My prayer today- Lord, sustain in my memory that your grace is sufficient. I shall want no more. Help me desire (to shop and buy) less and less until I conquer my wants and stick truly only to what I need. Double your grace when I get double the impulse please. Amen.
