Newly hatched baby sparrows! Awwww-

The story behind them is this...Mommy sparrow builds a nest in the wreath on my front door. I tell my Mommy, (lol) "eggs are soon to follow." Five teeny baby blue eggs line the nest. We limit use of the front door to help Mommy sparrow. Baby sparrows hatch. We take photo. Baby sparrows are now holding their little heads up for Mommy sparrow. We discontinue use of front door completely. With the storms we have had, Mommy sparrow was wise to build her home in a safe place.

Five baby sparrows, new life, resting in a safe place, on the door...

Five:Grace

New Life:Through Him

Resting in a safe place: In Him

The door: He IS The Door

I receive it!

Shayla's Tidbit of Wisdom for the Day
And No, I am not frustrated, but this is part of a PSY200 assignment I am doing.
(Hi, Ms. Rudd!)

Frustration is an internal emotional state resulting from interference with satisfaction of a motive or blocking of goal-directed behavior.


I would have to say that blatant, inconsiderate actions frustrate me the most, but if yours is one of the following:


In case of delays, always have something you can read or do to make the most of your time.

On losses, learn from the experience and find a way to do better the next time.

With a lack of resources, be creative with what you do have or find a way to get what you do not.

On failure, If at first you don’t succeed…

And finally, upon rejection, don’t take it personal.


Dig?

How Sinful Are You?
Which of the 7 Deadly Sins Affects You Most?

Shayla, you're less sinful than the average person.

Still, your sinful tendencies are running just below the surface and could start to affect your choices in life. For example, if you aren't careful, your drive to excel at all costs may ultimately be your downfall. Feeling good about your successes might be a gratifying way to acknowledge your work and position in life. Still, you, in particular, should beware of prioritizing your achievements above other things and using them as a way to feel superior to others. Though you're less sinful than others, this, and the sins you scored highest on can still jeopardize the things that are most important to you. Don't let them.
Find out which of the 7 Deadly Sins are affecting you negatively.

Life, death, and (the) meaning of existence are intertwined.
