it's a new day

so...I'm blogging again. for many reasons. to remember. to sort out my own thoughts. to give people a way to keep up with me. to keep a record. to hopefully inspire others and make them think, because I've been reading blogs lately and it's had that effect on me. and because the other day it hit me that what was keeping me from writing was this idea that every post must have the length and detail of a master's thesis, which just isn't true.

what was amazing about today: going to the nursing home and hearing truth straight from the mouth of an old, 90+ year old woman who has dementia and is scared to die. somehow, she knew the truth when she heard it: Ama, Jesus loves you. her eyes would light up and she would repeat it: Jesus loves me...and I love Jesus. she's scared to die but knows that Jesus is good, that we need Him.

who can know how much she really understands? but what more can we do than pray, proclaim, love...
