Quiet Thoughts!

I cannot believe that more than three months have passed and I am just now getting my thoughts together to put into this blog post.  Maybe I am just fooling myself and I have no thoughts to put together.  Time has given me the opportunity to reflect and I realize how important it is to take the time to quiet oneself. The scripture says in quiet and confidence HE will restore our strength. Isaiah 30:15  I am finding my inner spirit is strengthen in quietness.  At times I have felt it is the wisdom of age that is finally dawning on me but I am finding there is a restoration that takes place when I am able to quiet myself and wait patiently.  Maybe that is wisdom, to know it is necessary to be still.  The body moves ever toward the end while the mind longs for time to stand still closer to the beginning.   There is a disharmony of sorts as the outside ages day by day and the mind struggles to hang onto the youth of days gone past.  As I write I am aware of the ramblings of a NONA being portrayed as lucid thoughts worthy of paper.  However, this is my blog and I am the master of the pages presented so I allow myself free range.  My thoughts are MINE and it becomes my responsibility to take every thought captive. So with that in mind, I must quiet myself and sign out of this blog.
