A story in a single image

Today’s assignment is to make a story from one picture given my our Word Press writing course staff. In Denmark most of our Jewish population of 7000 was saved from the Nazi persecution. All took place in a few days in October 1943, coincident with the Jewish holy festival Rosh Hashanah. You can read more about it here from this link. Eighty […]

Integrity update 

I still find it very challenging to keep a high standard in this area. The hardest is to dare to speak out frankly and honestly to people when I am convinced that something is wrong. Something that can’t be left untouched unless damage will follow. It’s like a terrible fear will try to suffocate me. What should I do if they react in anger or becomes very hurt?

The fear of man is a childish reaction which should be left. But I will ask myself about how important it is to bring up the case? I have taken part in Lisa’s blogging event “One Word Challenge” for more than six months and I have become more confident in integrity. I take time to ask myself if I have considered all aspects of treating myself and my fellow human beings worthily. I will end this post with the words of Paul to Philippians in chapter 4:8 amplified bible For the rest, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is worthy of reverence and is honourable and seemly, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely and lovable, whatever is kind and winsome and gracious, if there is any virtue and excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think on and […]

Remembering my Father

In response to The Daily Post’s writing prompt: “Do Not Disturb.” This past Sunday, my father would have been 95 years old. I now think about him with warm feelings, but it’s been a long way to come to that. I have mentioned my relation to him in a post called “My Long Journey to Overcome Fear.” He was born […]
