I just finished watching The Mummy, The Mummy Returns, and The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor. Adventurous. The bad guys lost.

Seven Reprimands
I reprimanded my soul seven times!
The first time: when I attempted to exalt myself by exploiting the weak.
The second time: when I feigned a limp before those who were crippled.

For years, the day after Thanksgiving and the day after Christmas, I was one of those who could be found excitedly standing in line outside certain stores waiting for the doors to open so that I could get the "bargains."

One lesson that I have learned in life is that people can respect a position that another holds or has held without actually respecting the person.

Remembering with great appreciation all who served and those who gave their lives for our freedom. Special memory of family members who served in World War II and Korea. Love to my nephew who served in the Gulf War and other places around the world and retired from the Army after 20 years.

Listen! The drum beat isn't even regular. Everyone is out of step. And there! You see? God keeps stopping along the way to pick up one of his tinier soldiers who decided to wander off and play with a frog, or run in a field, or whose foot got tangled in the underbrush.

Last week a friend and I were talking about so much anger in the world. I am a psychology major, but not a psychologist. Here is a link to an article I found if anyone is interested. (The Psychology and Philosophy of Anger And how to control your anger by Neel Burton M.D.)

When we were teenagers about a million years ago, I remember one of our pastors teaching us that one person is no better than another person. He explained that from the moment of conception, the only way out of life is death; therefore, no human being is more important than another human being.

From the KJV, Psalm 143:1 reads:
"Hear my prayer, O LORD, give ear to my supplications: in thy faithfulness answer me, and in thy righteousness."
Each Sunday we sang this hymn:
Hear our prayer, O Lord
Hear our prayer, O Lord
Incline thine ear to us
And grant us thy peace.
Amen

The essential lesson I've learned in life is to just be yourself. Treasure the magnificent being that you are and recognize first and foremost you're not here as a human being only. You're a spiritual being having a human experience.

According to the apostle Paul who wrote about his own struggles with right and wrong, good and evil, we are all just a work in progress.

Almost finished testing some of my mom's recipes for our holiday tables: cupcakes, pound cake, and last week I baked a sweet potato pie for the first time ever. Now hope I can get her caramel frosting right for the two-layer cake. Hope to bake and deliver the surprise for Christmas.

I have the original Star Trek series on DVD. An episode "The Ultimate Computer" was to show that a computer could run the Enterprise without the crew. Needless to say, it did not go well, but it was a great episode. The good news is that people are still needed in 2023.

Sometimes we believers spend so much time highlighting our differences, and creating new differences that we forget about what truly matters. Ephesians 4:4-6 shows what oneness in Christ looks like.

I watched Gaslit w/Julia Roberts (great as usual). I remember those events. Imagine what life would be like without gaslighting and conspiracy theories. Politics is not the only area where these occur.

I am baking, testing my mom's recipes that she wrote or dictated. Hopefully, more than the crumbs from the pound cake will make Sunday dinner tomorrow (LOL). So good. Great memories.
