My love/hate relationship with technology

I was inspired to do some more writing again on Sunday evening after the kids went to bed, and Kevin was playing his World of Warcraft game. It is easy to get into writing when he’s on his game because I have no one to talk to.

So I did quite well, added at least a few pages to my memoir, saved it as always… and then it was gone. I spent a couple of days trying to find a way to open the document, but all the work I did was lost. Still don’t know why and how. I was so frustrated, I just felt like crying.

I was beginning to think that maybe God is trying to tell me something, maybe I’m not supposed to write this memoir. I talked to my best friend Tina, who found encouraging words for me yet again. She told me that maybe God was just trying to teach me to persevere.

It took a while for me to even find the courage to write again, I had done some pretty good work, I can’t just sit down and repeat what I wrote. I know it won’t be the same when I write it again, the thoughts will be sort of the same, but I won’t think and write the same as I did before. I went down on my knees before I started, and asked God for wisdom, and direction. I only want to write and publish this memoir if it is His will, and I pray that sharing my journey would somehow be a blessing to others.

Wonderful Journey

People have often told me “You should write a book!” I have thought about it for years, but with working and taking care of my family I just never got started. I really didn’t know where to begin. Then one day I just sat down and started with my earliest memories… and I am now writing a Memoir.

That has got me thinking a lot about my past, and my journey so far. When I think about it my journey took its many turns due to my mother’s search for God. That walk with God she led me on became my own personal journey with Him. It has been a wonderful, sometimes quite bumpy ride so far. I just keep travelling this path called life and keep on learning.
