Imagining Mary
http://imaginingmary.blogspot.com/2014/05/dear-friends-ive-been-listening-to-ted.html
Monday, May 19, 2014. I've been listening to Ted Talks on Motivation and on Creativity. I was thinking about walking to the Art store to buy some art supplies to do something creative. Then I realized my art is writing. Or at least one of my arts is writing, so why not just dust off this blog and write something? So, here I am. The assignment is to draw a picture of how life is now and draw a picture of the life I want and then begin to imagine how to move from one picture to the other. Oh yeah. I wa...

Imagining Mary: Coins
http://imaginingmary.blogspot.com/2009/01/coins.html
Thursday, January 22, 2009. I can remember searching under the floormats of our car back when I was married, looking for the final $2.40 we needed to pay rent. We actually had to ask someone for two dollars and forty cents to pay our rent. That was awful. Imagine wealth in the new year,. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). I will be resuming blogging with a new blog, *Pineapple Sage*, over at Wordpress. I hope you'll follow me there :). Woman of No Consequence, #11. View my complete profile.

Imagining Mary
http://imaginingmary.blogspot.com/2010/02/day-after-mike-broke-my-heart-i-met-man.html
Sunday, February 21, 2010. The day after Mike broke my heart I met a man. He hasn't called again and I don't mind. For me it was grace, God's little gift to let me know that I am alive, desirable, and moving forward. He was a nice man and we had a nice conversation. There are other nice men. I'll have more nice conversations. Hey Mary, havent seen you around in two weeks - hope everything is okay. Unfortunately, my bf and I just broke up too, so heres to being single.

Imagining Mary: Un-Imagining Mary
http://imaginingmary.blogspot.com/2010/04/un-imagining-mary.html
Saturday, April 10, 2010. I have been writing a lot lately, but not for this blog. I keep re-imagining how I want to use this blog or even if I want it at all. When I started it I wanted to imagine a new life for myself. Now I have a new life and I think the original goal doesn't make sense for a postmodern thinker. I actually should be putting my efforts into un-imagining Mary. I'm not sure. "Me," at best is a fluid idea. At best I would then be "Fred." Right? I thought I was ready to write about this, ...

Imagining Mary: Ice and Yikes
http://imaginingmary.blogspot.com/2009/02/ice-and-yikes.html
Monday, February 2, 2009. We had an ice storm last week that cancelled my classes, so I'll be starting school this week instead. Unfortunately, the professors still think school started last week and I have a ton of homework with some things to actually turn in day after tomorrow! But these three classes and a thesis stand between me and a master's degree, so I must press on! Good luck with all of the work you have to do! Just believe in yourself, and it will all come through alright :). February 28, 200...

Imagining Mary: Gifts 2
http://imaginingmary.blogspot.com/2009/01/gifts-2.html
Saturday, January 24, 2009. Mike did not get me a Christmas present, though he said he intended to get me. a prayer journal! I feel differently about gifts today than I did when I posted the other day. I knew even then that material stuff is not the stuff of life and love. But my insecurities arose and I found myself asking the question, Am I being blind and naiive here? Am I creating a fantasy love and ignoring evidence that the real man is not, in fact, in love with me? Woman of No Consequence, #11.

Imagining Mary: Prayer
http://imaginingmary.blogspot.com/2009/01/prayer.html
Friday, January 23, 2009. The only answer to such pragmatic questions is then, "Trust Him. It'll all work out." Then we get regaled with stories of the elder's uncle whose church made a similar decision to Trust God and how well everything worked out. Again, that is great, but the problem is such things are conversation stoppers. Nobody can raise real questions without exposing her/his lack of faith. The problem with all of these scenerios is, Who would worship such a God? But there is something profound...

Wednesday, May 12, 2010. Then I received a Biblical Interpretation award. Five of those were given. I didn't even know all of the other recipients. Again, it is better to receive that award than not to, but it was disappointing for me that it was the only award I got this year. Oh well. I said I was finishing seminary with a whimper rather than a shout, so it is fitting. Hope all is well! June 27, 2010 at 9:05 AM. March 9, 2014 at 9:48 PM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Imagining Mary: Impermanence
http://imaginingmary.blogspot.com/2010/05/impermanence.html
Monday, May 10, 2010. It is probably not a good idea to write a blog post in the middle of the night, but I'm up and I'm here, so here goes. Impermanence has become a wonderful friend to me. Things that used to grasp at me no longer have such a firm grip. Now I can have more open conversations with them. I can choose to move through this week's graduation events living in the present moment rather than in the past. I can experience them for what they are. There is no need to infuse them with tear...Life ...
