Nice – Trying for a photo insert with text wrapping to see how that goes.

Evie the evil Evelyn

This pic is close to three years old.  I shudder to think of how many places this avatar is scattered around the Internet representing me, Evie the evil Evelyn.  When I first took the name I had been Evie and Evelyn and Evie again … but it just seemed so plain – specially since it was nearing Samhain (Halloween ) But name with the ability to easily be remembered … Evie the evil Evelyn … Fit like a charm

Now my issue is the fact I literally have this pic 100’s of places.  I have a little over a month until the pic IS three years old.  That will be my goal date for updating the avatar pic of Evie the evil Evelyn or 2emc

I’m everywhere ~ I’m everywhere … but that also seems to be part of the issue … trying to think of analogy the other day as to what type of focus factor I have I came up with the analogy of – I have the focus factor of fairy dust – my daughter thought I’d hit it on the head.  But SERIOUSLY ~ fairy dust focus power can be a good thing … I just have to figure out what that good thing is

Lovin’ It   Everyday is a brand new day ~ we can not change anything of the past, and anything in this precise moment in time may not change a future, BUT we can take each present moment and be IN it to make it the best IT can be.  Enough moments spent being, doing, striving toward your personal best … Like a high jumper strives to fly just a millimeter higher with each jump, so shall we be able to if we but strive to do our best in every precious moment.

Eating well has been something that has gone out the window, as well as walking and then exercising with the fun stuff going on right now.  The police said to not let the threats keep me from the stuff I love to do – I DO think I like living better than any of the other alternatives … BUT … if while one is living, but they are dying a slow death – what does that mean?  ARE they really living?

Just more thoughts I am thinking while I am writing this blog and working with pictures to see how they integrate into the overall scheme of things.

Hmmm … from what I am seeing – I must needs to get my rear back in gear.  I’ve been *off* for far too long.

Dec. 3, 2008 ~ Wednesday … continuing my lesson in the book of proverbs.  Today is my dear husband’s and my 29th anniversary … so very blessed I am and all ways have been … may not all ways thought so, but just having a crumb or two of gratitude will bring AWESOME blessings no one can deny (-:

… any way to those new … the regular font below is from www.Bible-History.com and the italics is my input along the way — to those who have been following along … yes, I’ll stop rambling again soon

… and with that — on with the show …

1 – My son, forget not my law; but let thine heart keep my commandments:
2 – For length of days, and long life, and peace, shall they add to thee.
3 – Let not mercy and truth forsake thee: bind them about thy neck; write them upon the table of thine heart:
4 – So shalt thou find favour and good understanding in the sight of God and man.
5 – Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.

My truth– God, LORD, Allah, Higher Power, The Universe, All That Is … is?  are? all in one the same {{{GASP}}}  All that is, *Is* the True All Way …  tawn.com calling angels to assist to next level maybe?  Maybe    any way – back to the third proverb.

6 – In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
7 – Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil.
8 – It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones.
9 – Honour the LORD with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase:
10 – So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine.

Give gratitude in all things.  Even if all you can start with is a hot cup of coffee or bowl of soup.  Feel genuine gratitude for what you have and what you know is provided as door, windows, drawers, cubby holes and other places opportunity lurk …  it every where ~ it’s every where …

When one takes for granted the blessings in ones life ~ the blessings one thinks they may have are not blessings at all yet when one is truly grateful … blessings are in every thing, person, time & opportunity.

11 – My son, despise not the chastening of the LORD; neither be weary of his correction:
12 – For whom the LORD loveth he correcteth; even as a father the son [in whom] he delighteth.
13 – Happy [is] the man [that] findeth wisdom, and the man [that] getteth understanding.
14 – For the merchandise of it [is] better than the merchandise of silver, and the gain thereof than fine gold.
15 – She [is] more precious than rubies: and all the things thou canst desire are not to be compared unto her.
16 – Length of days [is] in her right hand; [and] in her left hand riches and honour.

What are we willing to trade the minutes of our lives for?  I kind of went round and round here until I kept re- reading the 16th … then going back to the 15 ~ she is more precious than rubies … and any thing compared to her … with out life, we have nothing.

Earlier today (before reading this) I was thinking about this very same thing … People work at a job to make a living.  BUT if that job goes away … they still must live … so is the answer more jobs?  Or is it actually something more?  Any way – I digress and must get this done for today … YIKES it is 5:00 and I mean HERE!  not some where else

17 – Her ways [are] ways of pleasantness, and all her paths [are] peace.
18 – She [is] a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her: and happy [is every one] that retaineth her.
19 – The LORD by wisdom hath founded the earth; by understanding hath he established the heavens.

#19 resonates loudly   will dream on this one  (-:  as above, so below ~ but wisdom and understanding while being very similar ~ they ARE different.  Why?  heck ~ I dunno at the moment, that’s why the dream need … This is the *faith* part … I don’t need to *know* how a plane fly’s to get on one and travel safely any where the plane is destined to go :-)

20 – By his knowledge the depths are broken up, and the clouds drop down the dew.
21 – My son, let not them depart from thine eyes: keep sound wisdom and discretion:
22 – So shall they be life unto thy soul, and grace to thy neck.
23 – Then shalt thou walk in thy way safely, and thy foot shall not stumble.
24 – When thou liest down, thou shalt not be afraid: yea, thou shalt lie down, and thy sleep shall be sweet.

When I get to parts where I kinda go … hmmm …  — do I go on or keep re-reading it? — for now, I’m goin’ on …

25 – Be not afraid of sudden fear, neither of the desolation of the wicked, when it cometh.
26 – For the LORD shall be thy confidence, and shall keep thy foot from being taken.

I am grateful to know I do not need to know how to do everything there is to be done to make our wondrous world operate – to have it be a beautiful world (LINK TO PAGE)

27 – Withhold not good from them to whom it is due, when it is in the power of thine hand to do [it].
28 – Say not unto thy neighbour, Go, and come again, and to morrow I will give; when thou hast it by thee.
29 – Devise not evil against thy neighbour, seeing he dwelleth securely by thee.

Just as I was reading this, my dear husband was reading an article about food banks begging for donations of baby formula and baby food … please … when you have the power to aid … do so with out thought for “what’s in it for me”

30 – Strive not with a man without cause, if he have done thee no harm.
31 – Envy thou not the oppressor, and choose none of his ways.
32 – For the froward [is] abomination to the LORD: but his secret [is] with the righteous.
33 – The curse of the LORD [is] in the house of the wicked: but he blesseth the habitation of the just.
34 – Surely he scorneth the scorners: but he giveth grace unto the lowly.
35 – The wise shall inherit glory: but shame shall be the promotion of fools.

I wonder what tomorrow’s proverb will bring?  I am Grateful for … LOL!!!  … every thing!!!!

What are you grateful for?  Do you give thanks frequently?  Daily?  Every moment?
