There is much here to contemplate. Many ideas and inspirations, feelings and possibilities.

When I was five years old, my grandma's sister, so my great aunt, Dori, said that I have an old soul. At the time I didn't know what it meant, so I asked, and the answer Dori gave reflects the meme about old souls in this collection.

We are all watchers, and we need to be watchful. For there are terrible things in the evil realm that come through into our world, and we must watch for them. Blessed are the watchers who sound the alarm when danger is nearing. Amen.

There are people who speak of herds and of sheep, and of sheeple. But I have recently read an essay by Tom Luongo of Gold Goats & Guns blog who suggests we are more like wolves than sheep, and that our groupings are packs, not herds. Some wolves have gotten comfortable in the last few decades, he notes, and it is their comfort, and complacence, that leads them to accept instructions and do things that they ought to avoid doing, and refuse to do what they should. I thought his metaphor was worth passing along. It really ought to be a meme some day. =smile-

Struggling a bit right now with a situation where I’m having to set boundaries with someone I truly care about and having to say no to something that he likes to do…..Would really welcome your prayers and divine guidance on how I should handle the situation carefully. I love this person with all my heart yet I have to set a boundary for my sanity. Much ❤️
