Introduction to My Journey

By L. E. Skelton (Leticia Skelton) -
Though I am not certain where to begin, I know I do have to start somewhere ... So I will write from a remembrance as it resurfaces: a situation, a feeling, a smell, a sight, a song ...

 As we partake of this journey, you will be my companion, and I, yours. A journey of discovery, of startling insights, of unexpected awareness. But, most of all, a journey with a goal: ongoing rescue and deliverance from depression into a life lived to the fullest. 


Together we will learn, cry, laugh, and discover some amazing truths that will be our compass on this trail toward HOPE and JOY.

As you learn about me and my experiences, I encourage you to also think about yourself and your own journey.

And you are welcome to share your heart with me and others if you so wish. 

This will be a mother-blog with a fruitful offspring of little posts ... So, here we go! ...

The New Year’s Puzzle

By L. E. Skelton (Leticia Skelton) -

  It is New Year’s Eve in Texas and simultaneously New Year on the globe, depending on where you are right now. Either way, I will start by wishing a global Happy New Year to all! But with the New Year here (or just about) comes the New Year’s Puzzle. And to present it and give you my view, I will need to tell you how it all came about with a true story: Nearly a week before Christmas, we were shopping and spotted a beautiful holiday winter scene on the lid of a square tin can: In the foreground, a red vintage truck, decorated with evergreen garlands, wreaths, pinecones, ornaments, berries, bells, and ribbons. On the truck bed, bound by festive red rope, leaned a Christmas tree, sharing the space with four adorable dogs and beautifully wrapped gift boxes amidst hay bales. On the driver’s window, another dog almost jumped out at the bright-white winter wonderland, seemingly sniffing and licking the falling snowflakes that dangled in their descent.   In the background was ...

Today, God and I had a meeting

By L. E. Skelton (Leticia Skelton) -

 TODAY, GOD AND I HAD A MEETING This morning, I woke up much earlier than usual. With a mug of coffee, I sat quietly on the back porch. Outside, birds chirped, and squirrels chased each other through the tree branches. Inside, emotions, memories, and questions ran through me... Why can't human beings have the joy and energy of these birds and squirrels? In the cool of the morning, filled with emotions, memories, and questions, I felt alone... But when I lifted up my eyes to heaven, God was present: in my mind, He and I had a meeting... The conversation had no sounds or audible words, like sap that runs silently from the tree trunk to the branches… and the immediate result nourished my being. God made me realize I don't need all the answers: what matters is the meeting, the prayer, the certainty of His Presence. Morning, afternoon, or night, sleeping or awake, He nourishes me... and for that I am grateful!   “  Unto You I lift up my eyes, O You who dwell in the h...
