HOPE?

Hope?

How many times have you hoped for something, or wished for something that you really need? Not just for material things, but for health, better living conditions, or just a way to be able to sleep at night without worry.

            I know the feeling, I haven’t slept a full night in a couple of years. I hoped things in my life would get better, but the worry keeps me up most nights. With only a couple of hours of sleep a night my body and my mind show the wear of lack of sleep. Even eating I have a hard time, with only one meal a day to keep me going.

            Yes, I know the empty feeling of hope which doesn’t describe what I feel most of the time. Yes material things are important, but what about peace of mind? I hoped for peace of mind for the past couple of years. It always comes down to the same question, how long can you hoped for life to get better.

            As I tell my children, who are grown now and have a life of their own, to keep things simple and lay it on the doorsteps of heaven. There is always an answer out there and you just have to wait until the answer is given. It will come, maybe not as quick as we want, but it will come.

                                                MAY GOD BLESS!

Imagination

Imagination. Do you remember when you were a child growing up? Did you have an a imaginary friend you played with? Did you make up stories in your mind and tell to you toy soldiers or dolls?

            I know I did. I like telling stories. Most adults forget how much fun it was when we were young. Why we could make up stories and even have our dolls or soldiers talk back to us. Writing a book is the same thing. As we get older we forget the things that made us happy and we shut out the imagination we had when we get older.

            Writing a novel is using our imagination to the full extent of our mind. It tells a story from the beginning to the end. All of it is from our mind. We use that part of our mind to the fullest.

            Have you ever dreamed of having a big house or maybe a expensive car? Dreamed at how it would feel to be driving it walking through a house filled with fine furniture? Closing your eyes and seeing every bump in the road speeding along a winding road hands tightly on the steering wheel.

            Using our imagination is how author write their books. This is how writers spend their time by dreaming of how to start and how to finish a novel. We love writing and love to tell stories. So don’t lock your imagination away. Dream a little, this will keep you young and the feeling you had when you were a child.

MAY GOD BLESS.
