About Me
- Kristin Riggs
- I have had a passion for the written word, especially poetry, from an early age. I am first and foremost a child of God-a thankful recipient of His grace. I am also a mother, a teacher, a singer,and an overall music lover. I call the beautiful southern United States home, and growing up and raising my family here has shaped who I am in many ways. I believe that life- with its various emotions, experiences, trials, and joys-is a gift from my Heavenly Father. As a poet, I hope that my work expresses this. "My soul finds rest in God alone; my salvation comes from Him." -Psalm 62:1 Some of my poetry has been published in the online journals Simply Haiku and Notes from the Gean.
A very astute observation Kristin. I seem to get a raft of bills just before Christmas...
ReplyDeleteThey could at least have waited until after Christmas, geesh!!!!
ReplyDeleteha! malevolent wind -- may be it was trying to be friendly with all...sending greetings/bills this way, that way... anyway, it goes with the theme there
ReplyDeletebut doesn't the cake taste sweeter after paying the bills...to me, its that way, may not be to all,
anyway, may you find your goodness/happpiness back, Kristin...well before Christmas :)
wishes,
devika
Oh, no worries, friends! If lack of money really dampened my spirits, I'd be in trouble!!! ;) My husband and I being a police officer and a teacher (rewarding professions, though not monetarily), I learned a long time ago that my joy is not directly related to my bank account! I was just trying to be witty. :) Frank is right, though...those bills all do seem to come at once...and right before you need that money for something else! Oh well. Thanks to all for your kind comments. :)
