Latebloomers and Why We Bloom

 It has been a long while, but I am back. Since I last posted so much has happened in my life and the world, yet it is still a beautiful life and world. I woke up this morning and knew, I just knew that I had to get back to writing. So, what better way than to share my random thoughts in a blog!

To start off this new week, I went to church, and it is interesting how life lines up. For the past week or so, I have been thinking of being kinder, more compassionate. Boom! The sermon was about the 'gospel of compassion'. There is so much more we can do to help others that doesn't take more than a smile, a kind word and listening, really listening. 

There is one habit I have that I am working to change. the habit of listening to respond. I have found that when I listen just to respond, I am not fully hearing what is being said. Sometimes, there are so many nuances in what the speaker is saying that if you really listen, you will hear loud and clear, what is not being said. 

I hope we will be able to build a community of latebloomers, whether you are 20, 30, 40, 50, 60 and beyond. We bloom at different times and together we make a beautiful bouquet.
