I am sitting down at the computer and sorting out the thoughts and images sprinting through my gray matter. This is what happens on a daily basis as I sit at my computer and write. The neurons in my brain are up there having a party and tossing around my thoughts like hot potatoes. Once in a while, the potato drops into the laundry basket and has to go into the washing machine. This stops the game for a moment and gives my neurons a "take 5" until I finish filing the rotten potato.
They resume their thought-tossing and I resume writing.
I did warn you that I was a character when starting this blog. Sit back and enjoy it and I promise it wont hurt a bit.
The neurons toss thoughts all day long. I sneak in and grasp a few things to write onto the screen and sneak back out. I know that I should keep a closer eye on those potatoes, but they get away from us and tend to burn holes in the gray matter. As a result, I get sidetracked and drift along in a time warp until I figure out what hit me and return to the land of the living...
The only thing this post has to do with Independence Day is this: I praise God that He has allowed me the freedom to sit at my computer and write like I do. That freedom is a result of the original Independence Day struggle as well as the day that Christ died on the cross. Jesus' death and ressurrection has freed us from the bondage of sin. All we have to do is accept his gift by faith and He comes to us with the gift of freedom.
Thank God this Independence Day for his marvelous gift.
Blessings and a cup o'joy to you all,
Lynne

What a good reminder. Being able to sit and write is a gift. Vision, a functioning mind, imagination, fingers to type with, and something worth writing about. Many gifts.
Thanks for the feedback. Successful communication involves more than the original thought...sometimes the comments add additional depth to a piece. Thanks for adding to and enriching what I had offered.
Love ya,
have a cup o'joy,

We are truly blessed not only by freedoms in our country but freedoms that are ours in Christ. Thanks Lynne for this thought provoking piece.
Christa,
It is glorious what the Lord does when I sit down and write. He loosens my chains and gives me wings. The memories of past roads travelled pale in comparison to the glory ahead. How I yearn for heaven these days...Even so, I celebrate the fellowship I have with my brothers and sisters in Christ. That celebration is a wondrous freedom I joy to breathe in deeply.
Have a cup o'joy,
Lynne
