Each Day Already is a Challenge

A Texas Sunrise

Sunrise on Surfside Beach, Texas

A friend, William Taylor, took this picture. He visits Surfside Beach with his dogs almost every morning, watching the sun rise while the dogs prance about at the water's edge.

This is only about ten miles from where I lived in Lake Jackson, Texas. Sadly, I only visited this beach about four times in the six years I lived nearby.

Each day is a challenge. A challenge to get by without thinking about the fibromyalgia pains. A challenge to stay awake when chronic fatigure wants to take over. And a challenge to navigate through fibro fog.

I haven't been writing as much as in the past. For years, I wrote at least 500 words a day. Now, I'm lucky if I write 500 words in month. Sigh.

For more information about what my day (or life) is all about with fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, chronic pains, IBS, depression and everything else thrown in, check this out:

My pain and welcome to it.

Once you see it, I am sure it is hard to "unsee" it. LOL. I looked up the title but did not see it listed online. You don't see many bloopers like that around here, but I am sure they are out there.

In response to "Have we forgotten?"

I researched the falling man and looked at victim and family stories. I am sure there were some kind of city remembrance events. I did my own, allowing myself to watch the terrifying videos, and reports, and documentaries the entire day to remember. There already is a generation who don't remember anything unless they learned something in school or from their own family about the attacks of 9/11.

On a somewhat related note, I saw a YouTube Sports Short day before yesterday. It was part of a collection of "NFL Best Somethings [catches, runs, interceptions, etc.]". Somebody went to all the trouble of selecting and collating the video clips, ranking them however they thought best, and then captioning them so viewers would know who did what to whom. Except... In this particular video, players in two separate clips were given credit for doing whatever it was they did - against their own team.

Help?

It's Monday morning and I could share the sermon notes I took yesterday as I usually do on Monday or Tuesday. But I have a dilemma and I would love your input.

Our pastor continued his series on Building Character. Before he started speaking, he told parents that his talk would not be rated G and suggested that they might want to send young kids to children's church. Most kids were already in children's church, but there were a few who sometimes like to sit with their parents in big church. One mom kept her kids with her....until the pastor did start talking. Then she quickly took her kids to be with the other kids.

The topic? Purity.

And that's my dilemma. The sermon was a good one. But I'm not sure if the content falls under the 13+ rating of my blog.

As hubby and I were talking about this, we came up with the following solutions:

I could just change the rating of my blog to 18+. That would be the simplest solution. BUT... I know that there are a few teens (13-15) who read my blog on a regular basis. They are Christians and it's highly likely that the don't read anything above the 13+ rating. In fact, one has said so to me. If I changed my blog it would mean that regular reader could not read any other blog entries.

I could make a separate static item for this particular item.

I could try to tone it down a bit to make it fall under the 13+ rating.

And...I could ask you for your opinion and help.

So that's what I'm doing.
