I saw something travel in the sky yesterday 6:43p. Its appearance was sudden, its light was concentrated, its activity was intense, and its disappearance was vanishing.  I knew I caught a special show when I realized had I not rarely decided to walk earlier I would have missed it. I read to report a sighting like it to the American Meteor Association, but I will just record my sight here. 

Matt teases me I saw a dud firework but he trusts in my retelling I surely did not.

I do this thing when I have an intense reaction, I check the random Verse of the day.  That evening I met 1 Peter 1:15-16

January 12, 2023 I have been thinking about the Verse I met on the 10th.  It reminded me of an answer my mom gave me when I asked her, “What am I supposed to do?” 


Isaiah 42:6-7 found me one day, and I was reminded of the answer my mom gave me. 

I checked my understanding by asking myself what does it mean to be holy in all things done.  Doing right, God’s will, in all we do sounds like a simple way to put being holy in all we do.  As a dependent I think being holy means obeying your mother and father; that’s dependent on your mother and father being holy in their rearing.  As an independent, I think being holy in all you do is thinking with God for yourself and following that intuition and not being influenced by another away from your intuition; being willing to accept good feedback from good listeners also sounds holy to me (you know it’s good feedback when your intuition agrees).  I remember when someone told me against someone else’s perception, “I know I’m not doing anything wrong.”  I agreed.  Though, it may have looked different, right was being done - truth was being reconciled.  

Basically staying present in all you do is what being holy in all you do sounds like to me.  My mom gave me a copy of Jesus Calling and one of my takeaways from the pages is: 

God with us in the present moment.  

I was present in my walk that evening to be attentive to the sky. 

I heard a meditation this morning that aligned with the thoughts I was having above, “May we all follow Mary’s instruction of do whatever He tells you.”

I found the footage of the fireball:

Completion.

Thank you Matt for taking my picture.  There’s looking at you! I thought some things driving to the grocery store behind a truck and trailer.  First, Yes; that must be some good help in that cab.  Second, that's some well used scaffolding #mindofateacher Third, gratitude for the life of Jesus Christ and Him wanting to share it with me in Him  https ://youtube.com/clip/UgkxzXJyENvvL2pYAws7N3iWv_0Ebl5MCi--?si=mQefTiag4raNoHqP Third, Fourth,  (7/28/24 Thank you Lord God for Your gifts of prayer and promise and wonder of the extraordinary in the ordinary. 🐕‍🦺I am ending my final entry with the beginning of a 54 day Novena for two people I’ve never met, but by powerful mystery beyond my understanding, I feel strangely connected by prayer to pray for. For Elliot and Grace and in Thanksgiving for all holy friendship.  My favorite meditation so far…  I’ll begin the first nine days with a Friendship Novena, too, and try those 54 rosaries for the first time on...

Walk. Wag. Repeat.

Fit check!  My Nitto Nomad Grapplers arrived!  I waited years for these tires to arrive on the market to fit my vision and another year to fit the budget.  I am still creating my very own bumper sticker 🎣 and my vision will be complete.  My bumper sticker inspiration courtesy of “Beau”: I never stuck it on my dogwalking vehicles, though.   Thank you, Guardian Angel, for turning the wheel just right. I wanted to keep Beau’s gift of encouragement to me in a bumper sticker in keepsake condition.  Once upon a time…  But I would walk “500” miles  And I would walk “500” more  Just to be the girl who walked “1000” miles To up- lift her car. Thanks Chris for making my Barbie Jeep dreams come true.  #yourdreamsdontworkunlessyoudo they say. (One day I calculated I dog walked 52 miles/week.  Beau The Dogo Argentina’s mom raised my attention to the reality I had been walking on her watch rain or shine and on rare occasion snow for 2+ years. ...
I met Hebrews 1:3 today.  I have a feeling that Scripture is going to be my favorite way He is told.   My favorite way Mary is told is “the greatest enemy of Satan”; I don’t think those exact words are in Scripture but her receptivity is definitely that vibe.    https://www.ewtn.com/catholicism/library/marys-enmity-towards-satan-was-absolute-8038    “On this planet we have a saying, the enemy of my enemy is my friend.” -Transformers: Age of Extinction  Mary is the enemy of the enemy; therefore; Mary is my friend.   I thought about how quiet Mary is.  I have seen some images of her crushing the serpent under the weight of her heel while holding Jesus as a baby.  I think that’s my favorite depiction of The Mother of God- Mary defeats evil holding infant hope.  That is mysterious power.  I can sink my teeth into that kind of mystery, and I will want to.   https://nds.edu/blog-entry/mother-mary-warrior-queen/ I only remember ...
