MY PERSONAL JOURNALING ON WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 2015
Blessings counted journaling:
Snow falling horizontally.
A variety of winter coats and jackets to choose from--and a few are in the wash right now.
My plastic comb binding machine I have so I can print out my blog and journaling. I find a print out easier to refer to. But, I sure like having a permanent digital copy as well.
Having spaghetti ready to warm up tonight.
Craving frozen custard as it snows.
The Living Bible.

(409 p.m.) MY PERSONAL JOURNALING
I spent most of my day reading articles to keep up with current events. The truth is with what's going on in the world, this could be a full-time job with some overtime. Needless to say, I barely got any journaling or writing done and didn't even do any research on the history of terrorism and their beliefs. (Big sigh.)

BLESSINGS COUNTED JOURNALING
A couple of blessings to count in my journal... I am thankful for:
The sun was out for a spell and just long enough for the birds to thaw a little.
I pulled a warm wool lined flannel jacket out of the dryer. It's hideous and I wouldn't wear it in public. But, boy is it warm!
Our electric fireplace.
The realization that as I have kept up with current events, and am studying terrorism, I have upset myself (and my stomach) and I realize how important it is for me to journal my thoughts and emotions -- and work through them. Furthermore, it is critical for me to count my blessings. Never mind pray. So, as I study the history and current events of terrorism, I will make sure to pray, read the Word of God, count my blessings, and journal, along with read. These are the ways I can bring balance to my life as I try to wrap my head around the war on terror today.
