Call Me the Clay

Mindblown: a blog about philosophy.

  • Bittersweet Life Events

    Lots of things have taken place of late (since March).  All have been quite emotional and has taken me on quite the journey of soul-searching and learning. Without notice, my employer laid several people off – and I was included in that group.  My supervisor called me while I was on vacation to break the…

  • MOTHER’S DAY EMAIL I JUST RECEIVED…

    I just got the following email from my daughter who is almost 22 and getting ready to move to another part of the state in about 3 weeks: Mom, I wanna take this time to tell you just how much you mean to me. This Mother’s Day is gonna be a very bitter sweet day.…

  • Thought-Provoking Movie Night

    Movies.  I have watched a couple of movies recently that really touched me.  Movies that had me coming away still thinking about them and I thought I would share some of those thought with you. The first was called ‘The Intouchables’ – a 2011 movie and based on a true story – full of meaning…

  • Life Experiences: Fibromyalgia & Fibro Fog

    Many people have never heard of Fibromyalgia.  Some have heard of it but have no idea of what it is.  Some people know that it means you have chronic pain – but that is all they know.  Some don’t believe it even exists…. I remember the day my doctor finally said that he believed I…

  • Can You Believe It Is 2014?!

    It’s 2014…..can you believe it!?  Another year has flown by already.  This year will mark many changes for me – some of them will be bittersweet. I’m not one to do New Year’s resolutions or anything like that – for me it has always simply been a new number on the calendar and that was…

  • He Came Through Again – And Technology is Great!

    I did it again.  I let my faulty ‘auto-pilot’ kick in when an unexpected problem came up recently.  I had to give myself a good talking to for sure!  Good news though – I am learning to lean on my Father more and more.  And though I may panic for a bit I continue to…

  • Catch Up Time and In the News

    ME: I have posted about the detox I was trying.  And I’m pretty sure I’ve mentioned how it didn’t work for me.  Don’t get me wrong – I’m pretty sure it would have worked – but for whatever reason it did not do well with my Fibromyalgia.  And though I was told that it was just…

  • Amazing Love, Power Thoughts, Prayer Power & Lifestyle Changes

    Amazing Love I watched a movie on Netflix called ‘Amazing Love – The Story of Hosea’ last night.  Have you seen it?  Even heard of it?  I was surprised to find out that this movie came out in 2012 because it felt like an older movie.  I say this because the acting wasn’t great and…

  • Childish Government Antics

    So our government has shut down.  I typically don’t get too involved or pay much attention to all of the b.s. that goes on in our political world anymore.  It doesn’t really matter which group it is – it has become nothing more than who can bully the best and stomp their feet the most. …

  • Did You Know That Bullying Is Funny?!

    At least that is what our young people are being taught.  Did you know?  Yes, bullying is a huge topic and there are many efforts to put it out there in the public eye that bullying is wrong.  BUT – have you checked out television lately? Please understand I am not one to get on…
