“Youth is not wasted on the young when you choose to know God” by Julie Ainger

We all come into this world basically the same way:Bald and with no teeth🧑🏻‍🦲🦷☺️Youth is an important time of life. Pre-packaged answers, instructions and ways of life may confront us daily causing unhappiness. (Pf). It is better to question everything. And realize deja vu may come in many shapes and sizes. Question everything.EVERYTHING.Jesus did. He was not a storybook character, a super hero. He walks quietly beside you, silently even encouraging you to resist the race, the rat race and fearlessly face the venture of your life (PF). He en...

(bs)The moment you begin and end doubting yourself is and can be a deadly moment.If only.The ramifications can be unbelievably difficult to live with. Or without. Can be deadly. There are important moments when it is possible to cross to the other side. Of trust. Setbacks will occur. There are other times the ...

“The Secret Keeper. ” by Julie Ainger

What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.When in Rome do as the Romans do.Straight from the hip. Here we go.Do you ever wonder why it is more vital, takes more vitality, takes on ever more importance to take on the young cats? The young “felines.”Because:They have yet to earn their stripes.There are no shortcuts.They often inevitably and inveigable-ly think that they are there. Have arrived.Most people are not that clueless.Shortcuts.A quick buzz.From here to there.A lie has speed. The truth has endurance. Think ‘bout that the next time you “ sl...

“Preposterous Preponderance” by Julie Ainger

Life can really suck the life outta a person.Sometimes slow burn-ly.Sometimes quick, in an instant. Blink of an eye.Either way it can “Ouch”.A lot.And sometimes. People just don’t care.Not the bright and sunny positivity way or point of a supposed good day, the day.Sorry.Hear say is called hear say, not heard say. Or Her say.But it is a good idea to have your say. At some point in time. Otherwise fictionally fictional fiction can take over the thoughts for the day.😞Not since Rome in its glory days had a nation enjoyed such overwhelming milit...

“Rope you in with the Gordian Knot” by Julie Ainger

Many hands make light work.🙂There is no such thing as a small task.Gordian may have thought this as he was being twisted, bent into an unrecognizable over sized string. A state so unrecognizable and something too complex to explain, explain away, try to explain, beg to explain.Alexander the Great, A legend. Alexander the Great had had enough and he CUT the Gordian Knot. Legend! For sure. Legendary for sure. Inspirational even. Sounds like not the kinda guy who simply wants to be a “hanger on-er”.As history writes, reputedly, whoever could un...

“Frowzy Drowzy and Fuddle Muddle” by Julie Ainger

When you look good you feel good?Assumptive assumptions assume a lot. Down to the wire.That was a close call and please clean the potatoes out of your ears.Is anyone listening or hearing? Yes. And. No.With a certain degree of certainty one can assume assumption assumptions about another.And be completely wrong, incorrect, off base.Fuddle Muddle was downcast. He was tired, hungry and thirsty. Zero energy to lift himself up to take a drink. To get a drink. To handle a drink.Along comes Frowzy Drowzy and asks, “Why are you so disheveled?Fuddle ...

“Great expectations with succinct specificity😳” by Julie Ainger

Great expectations.Not child’s play. That is a certainty worth knowing.And.We are all children of God. So this all applies to us. But what if we say,”I don’t wanna”.“I don’t feel like it.” ….”You do it. You go first”.😾Today on Low Sunday we have the opportunity to rise up and be our best to self and others. Sadly, and unfortunately we sometimes and oftentimes are lazy and pawn our actions off to the highest bidder just toLook good.But there really is meaningful meaning in service-minded individuals it is usually justQuiet. Quietly whispering...

“Without a parachute. Arbitrary and Capricious.” by Julie Ainger

Do you know the difference?Can you know the difference.Is it obvious or hidden.Will the real story ever “come out”.Of theHidden.In plain “sight”.Out of sight.Actually, itMakes no difference.But. To some, they rely upon the difference.Have you ever felt as if you were falling and/or knew, you were falling, and worst of all felt insidiously thatNo one was gonna be there to “catch” you. No plan to be there to catch you was on the radar, the horizon.The buy in of all buy ins……Falling, from depths or heights of unimaginable places andNo one was t...

“A leopard cannot change its spots.” by Julie Ainger

Hired Hands. Pot Shots. If you can hack it. I can take it. Cough gotcha down? You are who you are by the company you keep.😾🐶😺🐶 And. Sometimes the company you keep keeps blessings away from you. It says a lot about a person by the company they keep. Show me who your friends are, and I’ll tell you who you are. By the company you keep, one can tell what life you lead. Corinthians 15:33: Beware. Be very careful of the company you keep. Do not be deceived. “ Bad company corrupts good morals.” Try hard. Try harder. Deep seated in the sto...

“I forgot” by Julie Ainger

The immiscible combination.Like oil and water.One floats on top of the other.One sinks under the other.Both may cause a person to purse their lips in disgust upon possible ingestion.Both useful and good and ok on their own.Put ‘em together and who knows what may happen.Sometimes it may take a day to find out.Sometimes longer.Emulsification?Forcing two immisicibles to come together may result in immiseration. Cause immeasurable or immediate immaturity. Immense imminency of immediate immiserate. Imminution of immingling of intertwine. Immobili...
