September 13, 2026 To Renew and Begin Again
Below is a video from two years ago during sunrise. Have you ever felt you were given a new life? Much of the time a new life begins in quietness and contemplation. Maybe we think we’ve done everything under the sun. Three years ago, I was in that place, I was faced with semi-retirement and there was quietness in my life where I could reflect. One day a glimmer of light shone down on me through a person that the heavens used to quicken my heart and spirit to live again. None of us are really stuck, we just need a light of renewal in our lives. Perhaps you can be that for someone else. You never know that just by living your life vibrantly can give encouragement to someone else to awaken and renew their life.
During those quiet moments, I emailed friends, I got rest, I read meditative books and I prayed for insights and direction. I was given a new full-time job; I returned to my degree field and updated my skills with education and started a video website. I have looked for camera work at television stations, but it hasn’t been in the cards for me at this time. My family and friends have taken new directions in our lives. My husband is retired now, and he is now my partner in our video work. We have 59 videos on our website My-Journey-Video.com since January 2025, and we plan to continue and keep expanding in our outreach.
I do need rest at times and I have quiet moments, but now they are used to reinvigorate my life. My health has improved where I regained a new hope, I’ve experienced medical weight loss, improved eating habits and regular exercise. My husband has become my partner in that way also. I continue to read and contemplate inspiring books and meditate. I pray but it is a struggle to sit quietly until my mind is empty. The goal is not to be perfect but to pursue what is good and to ask for help to get there and to be thankful and enjoy the daily journey.
I hope this finds you well. Thank you. 🙏
