Mindblown: a blog about philosophy.

  • Attitudes – The Good, Bad and Ugly

      I’m frustrated with society – or is it just my life? I know that I get a bit grumpy when I’m tired.  Or when I’m hurting (Fibro-pain)…..and I have definitely been hurting this week.  It’s been pretty bad, actually.  And forgive me if something isn’t spelled correctly or my words get jumbled – that…

  • Always Trying to Be in Control – Ha!

    Do you ever struggle with hearing God’s gentle voice?  I do.  I believe it is because I am a ‘take control’ type of person and I tend to act before I think on things too much. This often means I bulldoze right on into things without checking in with God first to see if He…

  • THAT’S WHAT I THOUGHT

    Random Monday….Here are just some very random thoughts for today – mainly because I am in the mood to post something – but have no real topic to discuss at the moment.  Bear with me please… I often find myself concerned that our society simply has no common sense anymore.  It seems no one uses their…

  • Internal Vows Broken

    On my journey of late – I have literally been bombarded with reading and hearing messages of being aware of one’s mindset.  Watch what you think and see how it affects your daily life. ‘Okay, God – You must be telling me something here.’  So here I am trying to really take a closer look…

  • Belief vs Unbelief

    Heard another message that really hit home for me this morning….like a ton of bricks….my head still hurts (Ha!). The speaker was teaching about how Christians can be saved, but still have unbelief.  Not that we don’t believe in God and that Christ died for us – but rather how we often focus on our…

  • JOURNEY KICK-START

    I feel that my journey is about to kick in gear.  Sure, something is always happening and we are always experiencing and hopefully learning – but I ‘feel’ something coming my way.  Not sure what it is – but I’m excited!  I see things lining up in my life.  So many prayers have been answered. …

  • RANDOM FIBRO-BURSTS

    I have been suffering from a really bad bout of Fibromyalgia and the Fibro Fog that comes with that lately.  As a result – I want to blog but can’t think clearly enough to figure out what to say or how to say it.  I have decided to attempt it with some random topics but…

  • Take Time to Reflect

    I just got back from the BEST vacation!  We haven’t been on an out-of-town vacation in almost 4 years – so needless to say, it was MUCH needed.  But besides that, God revealed a lot of things to me. Briefly I will tell you that we live in the Texas Panhandle – if you have…

  • It Has Been One of THOSE Days!

    We all have days that make you wonder if you shouldn’t go back home and start over……or go back to bed.  It seems like we had one like that today at work. Monday.  Walk in and find that two offices have been flooded due to who-knows-what….some leaking pipes or something.  It ruined a few things…

  • Learning & Leaning Every Day

    After my rambling in my last post about how saddened and discouraged I sometimes get – I thought I would now counter that with some more positive and encouraging words! Life is like a rollercoaster with highs and lows. The main thing to remember is to hang on in the low times in order to…

Got any book recommendations?
