Desensitizing

1013) I have had an interest in psychology and how the mind works for many years. I love to read about how incredibly complicated our brains are and how it reacts to things. In recent years, I have read two books about how trauma and then how music affects the brain and its functions and

Long Division

1012) I did not enjoy math when I was a student. I didn’t understand many of the concepts, and I was an adult before I realized that in algebra, solving for “x” had to do with an unknown factor that was needed. For example, if I have 20 board feet of lumber and I know

Reminders

1011) The older I get, the more grateful I am to receive reminders. These may come from the doctor’s office, at work or by the state government reminding me that I need to renew my driver’s license. Just as these reminders are helpful, God instructs us in Romans 15:14-15 to remind others of the things

Acceptance

1010) One difficulty I regularly see among my students is their desire for acceptance and the pain they endure when they don’t receive it. Because this need is so great, I have seen them do anything they can to fit in. What they wear, say or do is evidence of this need. I have seen

Free. What’s the Catch?

1009) The internet can be a dangerous thing, so I think it’s appropriate to call it The Wild, Wild Web. I have experienced dangers many times. For example, I have received emails from my banking/credit card institutions that look authentic, but they are not. I have had “Ransomware” messages informing me that the writer “knows”

Don’t Skip the Stories

1008) One of my gifts is storytelling. I believe I inherited this from my grandfather. I can “set the scene”, build suspense and keep others engaged in it. This comes in handy as a Bible and English teacher. My students often ask me to tell them one of my stories. I imagine some of them

As Yourself

1007) As a Christian, I find boundaries are a tough subject. Why? Because I read a lot about “self care” and “giving yourself a voice” and more. What is tricky to me is the drawing of the line between healthy boundaries and selfishness. Is it selfish for me to desire a mutually satisfying relationship? Is

Expectations

1006) Frustrations come often because we expect one thing and got something else. For example, if I do something special for my husband, I often expect that he notices and comments on it. When this doesn’t happen, I get grouchy because I expected one thing and did not get it. Romans 12:9-21 gives us many

Superglue

1005) My experience with Superglue has not been good. One time, when I was in college, the post of a favorite earring fell off and I decided it would be a good idea to super-glue it back on. Big mistake. I got a little dab of glue on the back of the earring, but getting

A Job Well Done

1004) It’s funny how certain events stick out in your mind. I remember many years ago; I was in my classroom full of high school kids and as we were leaving my room; I asked a boy to pick up the wadded piece of paper on the floor in front of him. He frowned and
