12-20-2025 Do You Hear What I Hear

By Debra Basham, on December 20, 2025

It’s still dark as I lie in my bed with words coming through my head. These words have to do with Bonnie Makepeace, singer songwriter, and beloved friend. I’ve written about her music before. Today John and I are driving 150 miles to the home of Norm and Rochelle Morris, in San Antonio, Florida. They […]

A New Game

By Debra Basham, on December 8, 2025

For years we have had a hand-held slot machine game on the back of the toilet in our master bathroom. It is incentive for me to take the time to sit and allow body functions to do their thing. While this might seem like too much information for some, the process of allowing time and […]

The Spiral Path – Thanksgiving Day 2025

By Debra Basham, on November 27, 2025

Today is “Thanksgiving Day” in the US. The modern holiday was established by Abraham Lincoln in 1863, though the first Thanksgiving is often linked to the 1621 harvest feast shared by the Pilgrims and the Wampanoag people.

Today is also the birthday of Eldon John Basham. As I write his name I have the thought, […]

Holy Happening at Aldi

By Debra Basham, on November 24, 2025

This winter John and I are in North Fort Myers. It is an unfamiliar home in a mostly-unfamiliar area. I have, on several occasions after having gone to the grocery store discovered when I was at home starting a meal, realized something I thought I had was something I had had at home in Michigan. […]

Blessed Coming In and Going Out

By Debra Basham, on November 19, 2025

Our niece sent us an unusual door mat as a “housewarming gift” for our seasonal home in Florida. It is a religious-themed retro sunburst that reads: “I Am Blessed Coming In” from one direction, and “I Am Blessed Going Out” from the other direction.

Shortly before the package arrived, I had told John […]

Prayers, Love, Hope: Essential

By Debra Basham, on November 6, 2025

One week ago today John Basham and I were on the road to Tennessee. Our drive was uneventful, along a route of perpetual autumn. I had been watching the weather forecasts and we were able to scoot southward as the rains were ending. All but about 15 minutes on Indy’s northside were driven on dry […]

Lily Yeh – Lily, Yeah!

By Debra Basham, on October 28, 2025

The 2:00 am WhatsApp “ping” from my Singaporean friend woke me. I was able to fall back asleep, but was then awakened by a dream. These disturbances resulted in my reading the thoughts for today that bless my inbox.

I followed my passion and was guided by the light inside of me. That light […]

Alone Together

By Debra Basham, on October 22, 2025

I found these words so beautiful….

And if its true we are alone, we are alone together, the way blades of grass are alone, but exist in a field.

You might appreciate Karen Drucker’s singing The Face of God that […]

R.I.P.

By Debra Basham, on October 7, 2025

Your current comfort zone has served you, but it represents your behaviors and patterns from your past. ~ Daily Om

My sister and I just learned a childhood friend and neighbor took his own life. We had recently ended up living near one another again after all of these years. I instantly felt a profound […]
