What are we searching for?
What are we searching for? That was the question in one of my first few posts? Since then, my mom passed. Life is different for the family. And I ask you again, what are you and I searching for? At this time in my life it’s peace.
I have so many harsh thoughts in my head I couldn’t even write them. I’m sure I’d offend too many people. Ever have those kinds of days?
This week, while traveling to
This is true I’m recharged and…I didn’t miss my day job; however, I longed to get back to grammology. I wanted to share everything that was going on in my head. It’s like the cleansing of the brain. So stand back or get seated and buckle up…
I have a lot of stuff to share. And I’m starting tomorrow evening again….after my office Christmas party… And my plate is filled with subjects I hope you’ll enjoy…
Have you called your gram….

Welcome to our new feature where we'll post great recipes for you to try. 
My condolences on the passing of your mum. The question you posed is a very pertinent one. Everybody is looking for something. It’s great that you have been able to discover yours, but many people don’t know what they are looking for. They think it’s one thing only to get there and discover that it’s not that. i have come to realize that what we really need, the things that really matter, in life are the “little” things. Like love, peace, some understanding, care, a true friend.
Peace was what my wife needed for a long time and could’t get it despite all the money and other things she had and did, until she met the “Prince of Peace” Jesus. John 14:27, John 16:33

Dear Dorothy,
I am glad that you are home safe and sound. I hope that as you “search” you remember to include us in your journey… Think about taking a 10 minute grief break. Then, as you always do, square up your shoulders and face the day head on strengthened by the fact that you were blessed to have had Danny and Ma to enjoy and love for as long as you did. You are in my prayers.
Welcome back, glad your trip was refreshing. It’s true when we lose those we love it makes us reassess our lives and think about things differently.
I like “have you called your gram?” I think! It goes with “Grammology.” And we always called my husband’s grandmother, “Grammy.” (My side of the family used “Nana” so that just doesn’t work with Grammology!).
Dear Aunt Dorothy,
We are glad that you and Uncle Joe are home safe and sound.
I often wonder the very same thing what is it that we are searching for?! When I was single I thought it was true love, but now happily married with 2 beautiful boys and a little girl on the way, I often feel like there is more that I am still searching for. Thanks to your recommendation Henry and I have both read the Secret and ended up purchasing the video as well and often put it on in the background when the boys are playing hoping that bits and pieces each time are sinking in and they don’t even know it. The Secret has helped with some things as I have believed my whole life in the things that are being taught in the Secret, and yet I still go back to it for a refresher when I feel like I am loosing sight of my goals so to speak.
I think as people we are all pretty much in search of the same things love, happiness, health, peace and for me it is a peace of mind that my children and future generations will still know the same freedoms that we do. I think this blog is wonderful and the ability for people everywhere to comment and share their thoughts is a great way for us all to help eachother and offer new insights that perhaps we ourselves didn’t think about.
Love from your Florida Family!!
I’m so sorry to hear about your mother! Bless your broken heart! Thankfully it’s the holiday season, and you can take the opportunity to gather your family close and strengthen those bonds in a time best suited for remembering, appreciating, and loving.
Have you read the book “The Alchemist”? It’s on of my ALL TIME favorites, and I always pass it along to people I feel need a bit of an inspirational boost.
Thoughts and prayers to you!
Mauigirl, I think I like Have you called your gram, the best as well..
Thanks for stopping by and giving me an opinion.

Linda, you will always be in my heart, and family. And…I love your little notes..times like this they get me through the day… Today is one of those times.. I will get by this…
Love and hugs….me
Jen sometimes when I read the comments, I get this warm loving feeling. I know for a moment, (after your thoughts)…we are on the right track with grammology. And when things get down, we definitely…get on the horse, or read The book…….The Secret…I’ll read more when I’m done here..I need more upswing…and the book does it for me.
Thanks for making me feel great today.
Love Aunt Dorothy
