Needing to be held

Is it just me...or do we have a need to be held once in a while? Being unattached is difficult...because there are no hugs forthcoming! Sometimes at the end of a busy week...lying in the arms of a loved one would be fabulous...but who to turn to! I don't want to appear needy...but this is a real need I have. You certainly can't go around just demanding hugs...how strange would that be! But if the Lord could just hear and answer this small thing - I would be very appreciative. I know it's not a big demand...but it would mean the world to me!

Have a beautiful, peaceful weekend....Mojo

New Friends

I just had a lovely coffee time with a lady I met a few months ago at a talk given by the wonderful John O'Donohue (West of Ireland speaker). We seemed to know each other as soon as we spoke...do you ever get that feeling? We sat over numerous refills of coffee...under a tree...in the evening sunshine...and put the world to rights! We talked about friends...family...God....work....books....and it was just beautiful to connect with another so easily!

On the other side of the coin...my boss...oh...she wears me out! One minute...so friendly...the next an edge to her voice and manner that wounds people...it makes me sick to the stomach. What should I do...pray? Get her in a corner and tell it to her straight? The only saving grace is that the remainder of the staff are truly wonderful people. I have to admit this is the first year I've glanced at the job section in the newspaper...and I really don't want to go through all the filling in applications...interviews and getting to know a new set of people just yet...mmm...pray for me!

Have a wonderful day...and thanks to the lovely lady who sent me a comment! Mojo xx

What a week!

It has been such a busy, busy week...at home...in work...aahhhh...I need a quiet spot to calm myself. I seem to have a constant headache - I don't like feeling defeated but I'm getting to that point at work. My little fingers are ragged with all the typing.

Onto more reflective things...the Lord is faithful and good. He never ceases to amaze me with His care...what can I possibly do to let Him know I love Him? Of course ...He knows my heart...but I want to do something concrete...shout out loud...dance in the street...anything...just to show my desire to know Him more! I feel loved today...hope you do too!

A week closer to my holidays!

Well..a week closer to leaving the island and heading far away! This week has been a little strange though...with my boss (who shall remain nameless) sometimes being so friendly and obliging and other times being downright rude...mmm...how to handle her!!? Prayer and silence in between times seems to be the only way I can cope at the moment. I feel a real need to be away from people...not in a bad way...just in a simple..uncomplicated way. I do love my family and friends but so love to have my own company once in a while...how about you? Whoever you may be who may read this blog!!
Have a beautiful weekend and see you next week...Mojo

I'm excited about this!

Very excited about trying to at least blog most days...whether anyone ever reads it is another thing! The wind is blowing outside my office window...hard to believe it's June!! I was praying last night that God would take all of me...not just a part...not just the areas of my life that are 'nice' or 'respectable'..but all of me - the darkenss and the light. The sky last night before a heavy downpour of rain was amazing...half the sky was bright and beautiful and the other half was stormy and black...weird. Same sky - different moods...like me I guess! Speak soon...Mojo

The winds of change....

The wind is howling this morning in June! Just walked from the bus and I can't believe it feels like November...and I just bought a new pair of sunglasses as well! What's it like where you are today...let me know!

Does anyone else think like me?
Do you ever ask yourself a question like this? Sometimes I sit at night in the quietness and think about friendship and family and ask myself does anyone really know me...really, really know me? Does my little life matter in the grand scheme of things? Does God know my name? I want to walk in a straight line...but more often than not...the path bends a little too much for my liking! Will anyone ever get to read this blog...or respond. Maybe I should write it just for me...a place of solitude...of silence...just me and the keyboard...let's see!

Still testing the Blog!
Only me again...trying out the Blog...don't read this - just me being stupid and not knowing exactly what's I'm doing!!

Let's be friends!

Hi...Mojo here! This is all new to me...but I'd like it if you'd journey with me as I try to explore what's going on behind the mask!! This will be the only place to know my thoughts - as they happen - and I pray that you will be patient and caring! Even my best friends don't know the real me...but you will. I'm excited about the prospect of letting you get to know me in my 'realness'. Perhaps putting down my hopes and fears will be a kind of therapy for me...who knows?

Let the journey begin....
