A Page Is Turned: January 2010
http://angelaforbes.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
A Page Is Turned. Tuesday, January 19, 2010. For the love of a little sis! I can remember the day my sister was born. 23 years ago today! Am I really that old to remember something so long ago? I ran the rest of the way to the office - forgetting that we werent' allowed to run the halls of the Elementary School! We made it home to see mom before being sent to the living room. (The baby was born at home! I remember waiting with my older sister and 18 mos old brother. Probably not. :). On the road again.

amma talk - the little way: November 2013
http://kyammatalk.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Amma talk - the little way. Frail dust - remember you are splendor. Sunday, November 3, 2013. Working in the Dark. It is surely men who design hotel rooms. Or young women. One thing a hotel room, even a five star, does not often have is a magnifying makeup mirror. Now some of you might think this to be trivial, but I find it quite essential. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). A woman with a sense of the absurd, a love of life, and a desire to be a friend of God. A woman without a sureness of everything exce...

amma talk - the little way: May 2013
http://kyammatalk.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Amma talk - the little way. Frail dust - remember you are splendor. Wednesday, May 22, 2013. I know what you tell me to know. To be a received knower is to carefully scan the room and detect the opinion that is acceptable, and then take on that opinion. A woman who has had her tender ventures at self expression crushed like a fly under a swatter may have learned that opinions are not safe. And she is not safe when she has them. Monday, May 20, 2013. Is a move away from love. Love brings freedom. Cont...

amma talk - the little way: Hints of Me
http://kyammatalk.blogspot.com/2013/07/hints-of-me.html
Amma talk - the little way. Frail dust - remember you are splendor. Tuesday, July 30, 2013. Ever wonder where the kid inside you has gone? Ever feel like "you" are missing? The other night Steve reheated a few bits of steak that had been kept, left over. They came off the grill hot and peppery and I picked one up in my fingers and savored its soft texture and delicious taste. I did the same to the second piece. Standing there by the BBQ I had a flashback. Sometime into this love story Steve took me to th...

Amma talk - the little way. Frail dust - remember you are splendor. Wednesday, July 31, 2013. What the Pope said about women. From the Washington Post, "on Religion". While everyone was freaking out yesterday about the pope’s actually un-novel and uninteresting re-assertion of longstanding church teaching that homosexuals should not be marginalized, they missed what he said about women, which was in fact, totally fresh. Specifically, he said:. Tuesday, July 30, 2013. Ever feel like "you" are missing?

amma talk - the little way: This is marriage
http://kyammatalk.blogspot.com/2013/08/this-is-marriage.html
Amma talk - the little way. Frail dust - remember you are splendor. Friday, August 9, 2013. In our culture marriage is a fantasy of romance and bliss. In the Christian subculture we make it even more unreachable . Soul mates, perfect union of agape love and all. I think the mark of the BEST possible marriage is kindness. That is the summary of almost 40 years of monogamy. The other day I was standing in the kitchen with my right foot against my left calf and my hands above my head, working on concentrate...

amma talk - the little way: February 2012
http://kyammatalk.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Amma talk - the little way. Frail dust - remember you are splendor. Tuesday, February 21, 2012. I have only recently realized that my mother must have never felt safe. She had the immigrant soul - a soul that knew how closely peril walked. She passed that immigrant soul onto me. I always told my daughter, 'we are peasant women.' She has forbade me to use that term, but now I know the truth - I am a peasant soul. Thursday, February 9, 2012. What I heard today. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). What I heard today.

A Page Is Turned: March 2010
http://angelaforbes.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
A Page Is Turned. Tuesday, March 23, 2010. Mackenzie makes me laugh. So much so, that I can't keep up with keeping track of all the things I want to. Last night, Ryan asked her if she'd like to go the soccer clinic for her soccer league. They do it once a week during March and it's just an extra practice for them. Her response? Dad, I don't know.cause I'm already really good at soccer." She is not lacking in self confidence! Thursday, March 4, 2010. And so here we are. I'm sure that surprises will come m...
