Finding our way to The Way one situation at a time. I don't know how great it will be, but I expect it will be interesting, and I look forward to it going on past all reason because wonder is just that way. Are you coming or not?

Finding what is ours to do and doing it when, where and how it needs to be done in each situation as it arises is asking a lot of each of us all of the time. But it never gets more difficult than that.
What is your "thing," you know that thing that you do that you do best and love to do most? All of them. What are they.
I love to look out the window, drink coffee, read, write, ask questions, follow my curiosity, make observations, sit quietly, go for a walk, consider my options and my chances. Ponder what's for lunch. And do what's called for in and around these things.
I'm retired, and still finding my way--but now, I don't have to pretend that I know what I'm doing.
I retired after 40.5 years as a minister in the Presbyterian Church USA, serving churches in Louisiana, Mississippi and North Carolina. I graduated from Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary, in Austin, Texas, and Northwestern State University in Natchitoches, Louisiana. My wife, Judy, and I have three daughters, five granddaughters, one great granddaughter, and a great grandson on the way, within about ten minutes from where we live--and are enjoying our retirement as much as we have ever enjoyed anything.
