Every Moment is Blog-Worthy

Obviously, I will never be able to make a living by blogging.  That is, unless I decide to take a second job as a panhandler or sell plasma regularly on the side.  My last blog post was in FEBRUARY!!!  A lot has happened, but I guess nothing seemed "blog-worthy" enough to sit down and write.  That, or I was just being lazy or busy or something…

Enough of that nonsense!  Every day in which we are blessed to hear the alarm clock, tumble out of bed, breathe in and out, and face ourselves in the mirror - those are the days that are blog-worthy!

The days that are filled with challenges, victories, defeats, laughter, tears, confusion, clarity, accomplishments, screw-ups, fun, boredom, family, friends, work, rest, pleasure, fear, peace…those are worthy of blogging!

Ninety-three days have passed since my last blog post.  That is roughly three months - one-fourth of a year.  How could one possibly think that many days could pass with nothing worthy of blogging about?

I could have blogged about reaching my 50 pound weight loss mark!  And then I could've blogged again at the 60-pound mark.

We have been blessed with so much rain that our four-year drought has officially ended, and the lakes are filling up to levels they haven't seen in FOREVER!  This means we won't have to evacuate because of a lack of water!  Now THERE'S something to blog about!

My aunt and uncle have been called by God to go to Zambia and establish an orphanage.  I could have blogged about how they "wrote a blank check" and handed it to God about a year ago, began praying for Him to use them, and allowed Him to fill in the amount on that check.  Nothing more awesome than blogging about God moving in someone's life!

Many more prayers have been answered in those 93 days!  My sister, Michelle, underwent testing for possible benign tumors, NO TUMORS!!!  My youngest sister, Liz…she's a miracle!  She had a dissected vertebral artery which could have killed her, but it didn't!  My dear friend, Erica McKinney's breast cancer is in remission!!! So much to blog about!

So…from this point forward, I will no longer judge the blogworthiness of my day to day life.  I will consider every single moment, no matter how insignificant it may seem at the time, to be a moment worth remembering.  There are, after all, many more "small" events in one's life than those we consider to be spectacular, and it is in those hidden moments we often find the biggest blessings!
