Stitching In The Dark

Tonight we sit in the dark, desperately waiting for the cool breezes to come from off the Pacific and save us from this hot murky day.

Since light gives off heat, we have opted to be in darkness this evening. The only light I have to work with is from my laptop. So I am stitching in the glow of that light.

I am working on the direction which I plan to take with my blog. For some time now I have wanted to give back what I have learned through using hand stitching as meditation. It is a skill that can not only benefit those with PTSD and/or chronic illnesses. It can also help those who find it difficult to meditate in the traditional way or for those who seek a way to grow closer to God through the work of their hands.

I believe that the greatest gift is to give back what you have learned in order to help others. This is my gift back to the world and my 'Thank you' to God for the many blessings he has given me.

So, I sit in darkness, stitching and contemplating how I will bring my message to the light.
