Musings From My Front Porch


I love sitting in the swing on my front porch in the spring, especially, when the trees and flowers are budding forth in all their beauty and splendor.  The birds are busily building their nests preparing for the new ones who will soon be added to their family.  It’s intriguing to watch the daddy and momma birds hunt for food to feed their little ones.  The chirping of birds is music to my ears. 

            And, to feel the warmth of the sun after a cold winter is so relaxing and refreshing.  The soft and gentle breeze that blows across the porch and causes the chimes to sound is so peaceful.  I love the spring of the year, don’t you?  Of course, each season has its own uniqueness

            While sitting on my porch, I’m able to observe many people drive by in their vehicles.  Some are on their way to school or jobs.  Others are out shopping.  And, I’m sure some people are just joy riding. 

            Sitting on the porch gives me time to think and reflect on a lot of things – God, the Bible, myself, people in general, politics and politicians, world events, sports, entertainment, and a host of other things.  I thought I might share some of these thoughts from time to time.  I won’t follow a daily, weekly, or monthly schedule.  I’ll just write some things down as they pop into my mind.  I hope you enjoy these musings as much as I enjoy sitting on my porch.
