Day: July 28, 2022

Solomon is real proud of himself.  As my muse, he is almost always proud of himself when I actually put my fingers to the keyboard and start writing. He approves of effort and commitment. You see, he quietly takes credit without shame when I write to you about this or that story or life lesson I am working on.  His perspective on my everyday problems is more patient, compassionate and hopeful than my own ego tends to be.  A couple of times this week he has had to remind me to practice kindness and pursue wisdom. He always adds, “the Shepherd will guide you and walk with you.” I let out a low groan and agree with him in theory, but my mind has its well worn paths of grumpy thoughts at times.
