About a year ago, a visit to the audiologist revealed that I was born with a blockage in my eardrum. It explained a lot of things - the awful pain in my ear during an airplane flight especially during take off or landing and the constant high-pitched squeal in my ear. I had come to consider this as normal.
Therefore, I do not do well with prolonged silence. I prefer "white noise" such as soft background music or even the hum of a fan to cover the shrill squeal in my head.
But today I had a silent, quiet day.
no music
no T.V.
no computer
no reading a novel or newspaper
no shopping at the mall
Just reading my Bible, listening and praying.
God & I had a very good day.
"Be still and know that I am God"

What's What About Me
Welcome to my blog. I hope it brightens your day, and lightens your steps.
I'm a proud mother of two, grandmother of six, great-grandmother of one, a florist, love singing, music, my church, gardening, eating out and puzzles. I've been married to the same great man for almost 50 years.
I have a special love for the disabled and the elderly.
***********************************************
As a young girl, I was fascinated with the Royal Family and collected every picture I could find and carefully pasted them into a scrapbook. (check my first blog) I vividly remember King George's death and Queen Elizabeth's coronation as very important events. I also love the Bible story of Queen Esther, hence, the name of my blog.
I am not a deep, philosophical thinker, but observe and write about simple lessons we can learn from our everyday life experiences.

Blessings on You, the Reader
