There are those who see the world as it is. And there are those who see it as it could be. Sierra Leone 2009, Part 4. June 20, 2009. June 20, 2009. Miss C and I ate breakfast and were then driven off to attend Sunday services at the church in Bo. This particular Sunday was the Childrens’ Thanksgiving Service, and the children were in charge of everything. My favorite part of the service was the Reverend’s son, Baby A. He is not quite three and a bundle of pure musical energy! The child has no fear –...

Sierra Leone 2009, Part 6 | Quixotic Miss
https://quixoticmiss.wordpress.com/2009/06/22/sierra-leone-2009-part-6
There are those who see the world as it is. And there are those who see it as it could be. Sierra Leone 2009, Part 6. June 22, 2009. Tuesday was bittersweet. On one hand, I was exited about the events of the day. In the morning, I was going with Miss C to the church office to work with some of the staff. Later, I would venture out to meet some foster parents and children, and possible make a various other stops. Why is it that we, as human beings, are quick to criticize and slow to build up? I find this ...

Back to blogging… | Quixotic Miss
https://quixoticmiss.wordpress.com/2014/12/23/back-to-blogging
There are those who see the world as it is. And there are those who see it as it could be. Back to blogging…. December 23, 2014. It’s been a while, my dear blog site. I confess I’ve been sorely negligent, downright neglectful of you the past several years. But I’m returning now – and committing myself to updating you once again. I still don’t have all the answers. I doubt I ever will. But if what I’ve gained ministers to just one person, then it’s all worth it. Was It A Morning Like This? You are comment...

Kids Camp, Week 1 | Quixotic Miss
https://quixoticmiss.wordpress.com/2009/06/26/kids-camp-week-1
There are those who see the world as it is. And there are those who see it as it could be. Kids Camp, Week 1. June 26, 2009. I just finished my first week of kids camp with the church I now work for (and attend). It’s been a whirlwind, the past few weeks, and I find I’ve given little time for reflection. So, here it is: reflection on Kids Camp! I’ve been able to check most of my frustrations and to (somewhat) go with the flow. Huge praise for growth! The camp itself was great! Kids amaze me, they really ...

Was It A Morning Like This? | Quixotic Miss

There are those who see the world as it is. And there are those who see it as it could be. Was It A Morning Like This? April 8, 2012. April 8, 2012. I confess, I love this time of year. Cadbury eggs, Reese’s peanut butter eggs, Snicker eggs (yes, there’s a theme here) all make me very happy. I love the calla lilies and tulips, the lengthening of days and the brightness of the sky. Was It A Morning Like This? Many years ago, I was introduced to Sandi Patty’s “Was It A Morning Like This? I wonder what it w...

Sierra Leone 2009, Part 5 | Quixotic Miss
https://quixoticmiss.wordpress.com/2009/06/20/sierra-leone-2009-part-5
There are those who see the world as it is. And there are those who see it as it could be. Sierra Leone 2009, Part 5. June 20, 2009. Monday began with a journal entry, and a prayer to see God move. 8220;I am waiting…for breakfast, to hear about the day’s appointments, to hear from the Father. Simply waiting.”. Of course, this wasn’t so surprising. I think it simply revealed my struggle with waiting. Maybe some day it won’t be such an issue for me. Next we were off the Family Support Unit (FSU). This ...

2014: The Year of Fire | Quixotic Miss
https://quixoticmiss.wordpress.com/2015/01/02/2014-the-year-of-fire
There are those who see the world as it is. And there are those who see it as it could be. 2014: The Year of Fire. January 2, 2015. January 2, 2015. However, endure I did. And, looking back, I realize that, as painful as this journey has been, it has also been the catalyst for a great reforging. Fire is pain. But it is also purifying and can, if one allows it, create a stronger, brighter and purer object. So, avoidance comes to an end. And thus begins my sharing of “The Year of Fire.”. 1) Purify: there i...

There are those who see the world as it is. And there are those who see it as it could be. Another Year Older. A Whole Heap Wiser. January 10, 2015. Despite the craziness of this situation, I am (thankfully! Able to look back over this past year and rejoice. I’ve added one year to my age but I feel like I’ve added a lifetime of wisdom. Wisdom I hope I will be able to live out in the years to come. But being chastised for. The answer to that question is a resounding No. I am strong, I am opinionated, ...

https://quixoticmiss.wordpress.com/about-2
There are those who see the world as it is. And there are those who see it as it could be. The obligatory “About” page. Few things leave me speechless, save having to talk (or write) about myself. However, since I’m committed to posting my innermost thoughts (ok, maybe not quite so much) on this blog, I’m also committed to share a little something about myself. If I could bury myself in an ancient library or some archaeological dig somewhere, I would. (Bye, bye modern world! Hello, dead people). I am a c...
