1. Thursday is National Pi Day...are you good at math? I do okay. What was the last thing you had to calculate? Probably a tip or a discount in a store. Did you use your head or technology? Technology for the tip and my head for the discount. Last slice of pie you ate? Probably a piece of pumpkin pie last fall.
2. What makes a house a home? Love and those who live in the home.
3. Your current favorite green thing? The grass and tree leaves turning green
4. How do you define achievement? Successfully reaching a goal you've set for yourself. How does your personal definition look similar to, or different than, society's definition? No idea. What's something you think is worth achieving in life? First of all, a personal relationship with Jesus. Financial security.
5. What song is a good soundtrack for your life right now? "It Is Well With My Soul".
6. Insert your own random thought here.
- When peace, like a river, attendeth my way,When sorrows like sea billows roll;Whatever my lot, Thou hast taught me to say,It is well, it is well with my soul.
- Refrain:It is well with my soul,It is well, it is well with my soul.
- Though Satan should buffet, though trials should come,Let this blest assurance control,That Christ hath regarded my helpless estate,And hath shed His own blood for my soul.
- My sin—oh, the bliss of this glorious thought!—My sin, not in part but the whole,Is nailed to the cross, and I bear it no more,Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, O my soul!
- For me, be it Christ, be it Christ hence to live:If Jordan above me shall roll,No pang shall be mine, for in death as in lifeThou wilt whisper Thy peace to my soul.
- But, Lord, ’tis for Thee, for Thy coming we wait,The sky, not the grave, is our goal;Oh, trump of the angel! Oh, voice of the Lord!Blessed hope, blessed rest of my soul!
- And Lord, haste the day when the faith shall be sight,The clouds be rolled back as a scroll;The trump shall resound, and the Lord shall descend,Even so, it is well with my soul.

I so love your response to #4. One can't beat the feeling -- even if mine's only the number on my bathroom scale! I wasn't familiar with this hymn until 6 years ago, but now it's a favorite.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, I'm not achieving well on the scale at the moment. lol
DeleteIt is Well with My Soul is such a great song that stands the test of time! Have a good afternoon!
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite hymns! The story behind it is very special too. Have a great day Cathy!
ReplyDeleteYes, it is a very good story and I definitely love this song.
DeleteIt is Well remind me of my grandma. I can still hear her singing it at church. She was alto. Thanks for sharing, Cathy!
ReplyDeleteIt's a beautiful song for sure.
DeleteGood answer, I'm always calculating tips! I really enjoyed reading your answers.
ReplyDeleteGreat songs! I totally forgot about all that calculating to determine what tip to leave. :) Happy week to you!
ReplyDeleteWe actually have an app that does the calculating for us, and it is very handy.
DeleteI honestly cannot remember the last time I had a piece of pie. Pie is not my favorite dessert, for sure. I am terrible at math. I mean, really bad. But I have made it just fine for six decades with my very limited skills:) And, a personal relationship with Jesus Christ truly is what life is all about. Hope you having a great week!!
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed your answers.
