Sunday Stealing- Identity

 

Sunday Stealing - Identity by Bev

 

Welcome to Sunday Stealing. 









1. if someone wanted to really understand you,
 what would they read, watch, and listen to?
 They would be a fellow follower of Christ, 
and also be a conservative.

2. have you ever found a writer who thinks 
just like you? if so, who? My favorite Christian 
author is Derek Prince… we believe much the 
same way.   I also, love Liz Curtiss Higgs. We 
enjoy the same humor! 

3. do you care about your ethnicity? If you 
refer to my countries of origin, then yes.  
I have been blessed to live in Germany, and 
travel around Ireland and Scotland, my most 
prominent genealogical points of origin, and I  
enjoy meeting the people, seeing  how the 
people live, and learn the history of their 
lives. I enjoy genealogy to that extent!

4. what musical artists have you most felt 
connected to over your lifetime?I took piano 
from age 6 to 22 and love the classical 
composers, especially Frank Liszt and Chopin.
Culturally, growing up in the 50’s and 60’s I 
loved all the musical eras.  I was weaned on 
r&r, came of age with the British Invasion, 
and loved the excitement of the newer 
sounds of the 70’s as a young adult. I loved 
Iron Butterfly and Crosby, Stills, Nash, and 
Young. It really is hard to pick one I moved 
along with each new weekly top 40 and 
always found  music to admire,

5. are you an artist? As an elementary school 
teacher I drew quite a bit on the board each day  
and my skills improved quite a bit. After 
retirement, I took up oil painting and now some 
water colors. At this stage of life I am keeping 
a nature journal which I really enjoy!

6. dog person or cat person? Had cats during 
my life, but would love a dog.  But hubs doesn’t 
care for animals.

7. inside or outdoors? At this stage I prefer 
indoors, but enjoy looking out or being on the 
porch.. I still love the beach, but enjoy it mostly 
from the balcony.

8. five most influential books over your lifetime
Bible, Secrets of the Secret Place, by Bob 
Sorge, Time Travel books by Lynn Kurland, Anne 
of Green Gables, 
Love books set in Scotland, Ireland, England during  
the 1700, 1800, early 1900. 

9. would you rather be in Middle Earth, Narnia, 
Hogwarts, or somewhere else? I really enjoyed 
the Lord of the Rings films, but I think I’d rather 
be in Narnia. 

10. list the top five things you spend the most time 
doing, in order. I enjoy movies on tv, I enjoy listening 
to music, I enjoy journalling in my common place 
journal,  .I enjoy drawing and adding pages to my 
nature journal, and last but not least I love it when 
we get to FaceTime with my granddaughters once 
a week.

11. have you ever felt like you had a “mind-meld” 
with someone?
Perhaps long ago in my youthful life, but not 
lately!

12. could you live as a hermit? Yes.

13. do you feel like your outside appearance is 
a fair representation of the “real you”? Even 
at age 73 I would say yes.  I hope my outward 
look shows a fun spirited, loving countenance 
that shows that I am approachable and enjoy 
company. But if no one come about I am 
perfectly satisfied, as well. I am comfortable 
in my own presence! 

14. three songs that you connect with right 
now. How We Need the River, Most any Christmas 
Carol, You are my Hiding Place by Selah.

15. pick one of your favorite quotes.

From Psalm 42

7 Deep calls to deep
    in the roar of your waterfalls;
all your waves and breakers
    have swept over me.

8 By day the Lord directs his love,
    at night his song is with me—
    a prayer to the God of my life.

  1. I've read the Bible thrice all the way through intentionally, the KJ in the 1970s, New Jerusalem in the 1980s (I think), and NRSV in the 1990s.

Farewell

 After  17 years of   blogging  I am  pretty sad to  just fade  out  with  hardly  anyone showing any   farewell,  concern  about my  surger...
