Prayables - Ruth 4:15 - Scripture

Feature: Learning From Mom

"I've learned that you cannot make someone love you. All you can do is stalk them and hope they give in."

She's kidding-but not about the stalking part. Marie knows her mother loves her. In fact she's very sure about it. But she still needs reassurance. And attention. Ask her, she'll tell you, "I like to be center of her world. I’ve seen my share of heartwarming family dramas and I know moms are on put on earth to serve their daughters, except in my case." Half-kidding, half-serious, she explains:

"My eighty-five year old mother has a life. And it’s severely cutting into our mother-daughter time. Her social calendar is so full, in order to get on it, I have to call every day, hoping for a cancellation. So I stalk by telephone and enjoy every minute she gives me."

How wonderful it is to have a mother with a love of life equal to her love for family. Take a lesson from the elders: Live life with exuberance!

Joke: Travel Funnies

I have been in many places, but I’ve never been in Cahoots. Apparently, you can’t go alone. You have to be in Cahoots with someone.

I’ve also never been in Cognito. I hear no one recognizes you there.

I have, however, been in Sane. They don’t have an airport; you have to be driven there. I have made several trips there, thanks to my kids, and my work. (Now I think I live there.)

I would like to go to Conclusions, but you have to jump, and I’m not too much into physical activity anymore.

I have also been in Doubt. That is a sad place to go, and I try not to visit there too often.

I’ve been in Flexible, but only when it was very important to stand firm.

Sometimes I’m in Capable, and I go there more often as I’m getting older.

One of my favorite places to be is in Suspense! It really gets the adrenalin flowing and pumps up the heart!
