Catching Idle Butterflies

by vivacious

Rated: 18+ · Book · Biographical · #1031855

Closed for business, but be sure to check out my new place!

Thank you Voxxylady

for the beautiful angel,
made by the talented sultry!

Tune your ears to wisdom,
and concentrate on understanding.
Cry out for insight,
and ask for understanding.
Search for them as you would for silver;
seek them like hidden treasures.
Then you will understand what it means to fear the Lord,
and you will gain knowledge of God.
For the Lord grants wisdom!
From his mouth come knowledge and understanding.

~ Proverbs 2:2-6

I am but a seeker of God’s wisdom, knowledge, mercy, and strength, and this is a record of my ever-continuing journey.

Each is a butterfly
sitting idle but for a moment,
so I might catch it,
learn,
grow,
and understand.

Our first computer was built from scratch by Ron. The first one we bought was the original Macintosh, which we still have. We moved it with us from California to Colorado!!!!

I’ve never kept a journal – well, I tried now and then, but just didn’t have the desire and discipline to keep it up. I think I just never believed my random thoughts had enough value to record.

You can sure bet I’ll be following you on your continued journey.

& kh53150: Yes, you'll be able to comment on the new one come Monday when I switch it over. One of the unfortunate things about writing.com is we can only have one book at a time that will take comments.

Sorry for the confusion there!

No Tor, you won't be able to leave comments here after Monday. Sheesh, Davids!

This is a lovely final entry and I love the new title for the second blog. I wouldn't miss a consonant or vowel of the trip!

I have enjoyed this blog and have come to have such a good friend through it. Look at me crying

as though you are leaving. I am 60+ away I think. I am curious about the saving thing. I have a folder in word where all my entries were born, is that the same?

I remembered it once Jen guessed it. That was always when they knocked T out to put him on a plane.

You ARE amazing! And, awesome answers to the survey. I should take it again when I am not at the bottom of the world!

In response to "A Math Problem"

Excellent entry!!

I couldn't help but think about having dropped Logic three times and deciding to take a foreign language and graduate with a Bachelor of Arts rather than Bachelor of Science.

Then there is my "I hate math syndrome" that began in ninth grade when I flunked the first semester of Algebra and passed the second (with a D). This syndrome was compounded my sophomore year when I passed the first semester with an A and flunked the second semester! I refuse to go beyond basic math!!!!

Okay, am I reading this wrong or did you say that we will no longer be able to leave comments...do you mean that we will not be able to comment in the new blog?

At any rate....congrats on finishing this blog and much good luck with the new one.
