"Love this idea: "it is a reflection on the individual trying to better their feelings".  Too many times I have allowed others to bring me down and too often, I'm afraid, I've thrown these fighting words at others. Great…"

It's Quiet

My girls have a teen activity tonight at church and I’m using this time to write instead of messing with traffic.  The teens started in the gym playing games, the music was loud, and I administered first aid by the giving of a band-aid.  Then, they all moved downstairs for the rest of the evening and I’m alone in the lobby at the front desk.  The only noise I hear is the humming of the heater and ice maker.  I look around at the vacant halls, empty gym, and locked up doors. It’s simply peaceful…See More

Let's All Pray

Last week was a very strange and hard week for those in the United States.  Two brothers set off bombs at the Boston Marathon, a plant exploded in Texas and ricin-laced letters were sent to multiple people including the president.  Many people are living this week in a different mindset than they did last week.  Likewise, some are dead this week that died earlier than expected.  It was unsettling to imagine an evil so strong that it would desire for others to be killed. As I was glued to the…See More

Book Update

I'm writing today to give you an update on my book. My book has overtaken my writing of my blog these past few weeks. I hope you don't mind this update.  I have about 20 pages left to write before my book will be completed.  I would like for it to be completed by the end of this month.  Here's the problem:  I keep going back and making changes to my previous chapters. These changes are good and necessary, mind you.  I have a team of three who are helping with ideas, themes and editing. Their…See More

"Lesley, I've only come to see it as "diseases I've been gifted with" recently as I've watched the doors God has opened due to these diseases. I would not have the witness I have today otherwise."

"Susan, thank you for sharing this thought-provoking excerpt from your book! I pray God richly blesses your endeavor! Yes, I agree there is tremendous power in being transparent to God, ourselves and others. "

Just an Introduction

Here is an excerpt from my book. Hoping for it to be ready to go in June!   Are you transparent with yourself, God, and others?  I believe we live in a society where we are so connected with people via internet and social media that we have lost some of the accountability of someone really seeing us on a daily basis and knowing every quirk we have even when we don’t realize we have a quirk.  We are so busy taking our kids to soccer and music lessons or doing our jobs that we have lost the art…See More

Hi Susan, 

Hope you're having a super day.

It looks like you've been pretty active in the community. Good for you. 

I did a fun show the other day with my friend Carrie Wilkerson. You might know her as the barefoot executive, and since you're desire is to work from home and be there for your kids, I thought you would enjoy it.

Here are some of the authors and experts we've had on our show. Hopefully you can find some more guidance here.

Hi Evelyn,

So glad you've joined up in the Finding your Voice group. 

See you in the discussion.

Good morning Susan, 

Hope you are having a super day.

The best way to learn how this community works is to get involved in the discussion. We have an exciting one going on right now. We are encouraging and holding each other accountable in journaling our "successes" and "safety steps". Just like life - no lurkers, only participants. 

They'll be an option for you to join the group if you haven't already. You'll probably find that option at the top middle or right hand side of the page once you get there.

See you in the discussion.

Hi Susan,

Always a delight to hear from you. I look forward to seeing you in the discussion forum.

Hi Susan, 

Good to hear from you. I'm curious, why do you think you need to sit on your religious views? 

Your insights would be welcome in the Finding your Voice group. I hope to see you there.

Welcome Susan.  I found this site through Dave Ramsey and Dan's podcasts as well!!  Glad you've decided to join 48days.  It is a great network of supportive people, just the place to share your ideas and questions.  Hope you will jump in and participate.  Some groups I belong to are:  Write It Forward, Speak It Forward and a new group that I recently started, A Called Woman where we talk about finding our calling and moving ahead with passion.  Blessings!
