On the Journey

All the back to the first Snail Mail published on the blog. It was meant to be a temporary diversion from the (short) lockdown that was taking place; Snail Mail is still going strong today.

This episode goes back in time to September 10, 2020. Seasons in transition, autumn and spring, are wonderful times to assess what is working and what needs to change. Though many have fallen off the wagon of New Year's Resolutions, this month is a great time to choose one thing that you can do to improve your health, or your life. Start with one thing.

Do you know the impact that a hand-written note sent via the postal service (with a real stamp!) has on an individual? It is enormous . In this episode I encourage every listener to send a note (maybe even one with a physical copy of Snail Mail) to a friend, even if you think they don't need the encouragement.

It would mean a lot to me if you subscribed to the podcast (and the blog) and if you invited a friend to join you On the Journey. 💕

My reflection on a lesson about forgiveness from a passage of Scripture that doesn't even mention forgiveness. I love it when the dots connect. What does oxen and a yoke have to do about finding rest, finding peace? Join me for a look into a lesson from Jesus.

The Charlotte Mason educational philosophy is fairly prevalent, and often diluted. I was attracted to this philosophy from the beginning, but it seemed to good to be true, so I didn't. Now in my last season of home educating, I decided that I had nothing to lose; I didn't want to have any regrets when I finished. This year is our first year of implementing the full feast.

In my effort to get out of my comfort zone and create beautiful spaces around me, I purchased an original painting by Atlanta artist Richard T. Railey.
