Very Grateful for
God’s unchangingness (not sure if this is a word)
This site–WLG– that lets me post “new” words
Amelia, who was here to help me through the rigidity and devoid-ness of those in places I’ve left behind
Dr. Joyce’s advice to go to the media
Jennifer’s advice to take the high road
Amelia’s advice to “go to the mattresses”
my own still, small voice
the realization that many people mistake non-combativeness for weakness
escape from their toxic stickiness
“Very few things stay the same forever. People change, places change, jobs change, relationships change, fashions change, economics change. Our bodies change, our dreams change, our soul-muscles change. We change our minds. Roll with the changes, incredible you. Cling tight to the things that don’t change…the truths in life that are solid and dependable…and then roll with everything that does change. Change gets us where we need to be, it drives us to do things we wouldn’t have done otherwise, and it helps us see things more clearly. Change wakes us up, keeps things exciting and makes us try harder.”

Thank you for posting Love your quote from the brave girls club.
Great is Thy faithfulness ,O God, my Father There is no shadow of turning with Thee. Thou Changest not.Thy compassions they fail not. As Thou has been ,Thy forever will be.
I was reminded of this as I read your post. Love the idea of a soul muscle.
Thank you so much for this thought, Mary Ellen!! Right after I read your comment, my devotional verse of the day was Psalm 139:10-12
“Even there Your hand will lead me, And Your right hand will lay hold of me. If I say, “Surely the darkness will overwhelm me, And the light around me will be night, “Even the darkness is not dark to You, And the night is as bright as the day. Darkness and light are alike to You.”
Maybe the connection to you was a coincidence or maybe it was a soul muscle isometric exercise?
