It started with the Battery Charger!

I’m rediscovering the books I set aside for 📚 reading, but never find time to read them. Why is that?!

Due to the many opportunities to do all kinds of things when life was normal, and that at the drop of a 👒 hat, we can go mall shopping, walk around with no fear of crowded places, go eat out in a busy, noisy restaurant, go on vacation and do hotel hopping and enjoy breakfast in a crowded room of hungry strangers 🙃; more than two dozens of books I bought and placed in a cabinet were totally forgotten.

Not until I started searching for a battery charger of my mini video camera I had bought but I have never used either. It led me checking up for two small video cameras 📷 I bought through HSN four years ago, when I was tempted to buy this week a camcorder for Vlogging.

I wanted to find out if I can use one of those video cameras for vlogging. Since I have not used the mini video camera, I did not have any idea how to use it. But of course coming to my senses, I noticed the battery attached to the camera. Since I have not used it, the battery needs to be charged. I started looking for its charger but unfortunately 😕 I did some organizing of my gadgets and placed the ones I have not used in a bag and placed them in a closet. The charger is nowhere to be found.

I checked the cabinets where I kept the books I purchased and since it was impossible to look for a charger and/or the camera box with full of books and music CDs and traveling videos I’ve collected through the years; I had to take all the contents in the cabinet to find my way to what I was looking for. As I went through all the books, I was amazed that I have all forgotten them.

As I went through them and placing the books in two boxes, I separated the ones I am now interested in reading and put them in a big open bag so I can start reading them. These are books I mostly bought in some Christian bookstores and those books don’t age, just like the Holy Bible. I have about seven different versions of the Holy Book and there was only one Bible in the mix of books I placed in the cabinet and forgotten.

I am still in search for the battery charger which now has led me to a mission of cleaning all my closets to organize those items and miscellaneous possessions I need to donate for this year.

Starting this evening though, it’s refreshing to read one of the forgotten books which would help me to get away from social media and the stressful happenings all over the 🌎 world.

Battery Charger Update: I did find the battery charger and was able to bring up to speed my two cameras I can use for Blogging. Unfortunately, I got distracted again and I was not able to continue the video blogging, which I needed to put aside for the meantime. The distraction was brought by getting a new desktop, a 27 inch Apple IMAC which came out last year. I’ve always owned a Microsoft System, the last one was purchased in 2010. In changing to IMAC, I have to start all over again in familiarizing a different system totally different from Microsoft Windows. There are many pros and cons, but it’s a challenge in the mind that I mostly welcome.

Then some freak accident that involved a visit to the emergency room, threw me off the radar and I had to nurse and heal myself for more than a month. Not really the best time to be in that situation especially with the Covid crisis that is still lurking out there.

I am fortunate though, that I have close ties with few friends and relations to get me through the hurdle. I was able to overcome and healed with the Grace of God. He came through for me again. With God, He makes trials easier to manage. He comforted, guided and best of all, healed me with His miraculous touch.

Jesus is still in the Healing Business!

Those books I have are waiting to be read, the videos I have in my video files, are waiting to be uploaded and edited, the Mac system features and software updates are eagerly waiting on the sidelines, and the printer and scanner hooked up to Mac are waiting to be tested! My Microsoft Desktop is still my main informational updater, as well as my Tablet, my portable laptop, and cell phones are as important gadgets to keep with the times, as well as friends who need to bend my ear so to listen to their anxious and sometimes happy hearts. And not forgetting the daily house chores and treadmill walks and upper and lower back exercises. Come to think of it, I got busier now than before the pandemic!

And time with God/Jesus must be Priority!
