I opened the dashboard for this blog this morning wanting to write a new post. I’ve taken a break from writing, for the most part, since Thanksgiving. I needed the breather. While we are ten days into the new year, it is yet the new year, so I say with you, “Welcome to 2025!”
As I looked over my dashboard (the interior of my WordPress blog), I found that two readers recently had pulled up a very old post of mine dated January 17, 2012. (This blog was birthed in November of 2011.) At that time this blog was part of my ministry as the curriculum director for Troy Christian Schools in Troy, Ohio, although I was living in Arizona. My articles were short then because they were written mainly for parents of our students, and I posted more often.
The following is my January 2012 post which I find to still be relevant, as well as gentle and refreshing. It is short.
