{pain} 4 – which is but one away from my goal. {sleep} 5h 21m – I missed my bed; the hospital left something to be desired.
We are on our way to Chicago. Ma mère va à son tracteur semi–remorque. Roegn dort sur le siège arrière. J’ai travaillé sur mes cours de français. C’est la raison du commentaire ici.
Chebanse, Illinois, just checkin’ in. —Le compte à rebours est à quelques minutes jusqu’à ma mère est de retour sur la route. So, I will say tatá until then.
 bientôt,
Cecelia ✌🏻🌊💙
What would you do if you won the lottery?

This is easy for me… I would pay off all my & my mom’s debts. With whatever was leftover I would begin a self-sustaining town, realizing new ways of living for everyone.
Now, this little tree-hugger needs a nap. ✌🏻🌊💙
Guess who’s baaaack???? Surgery went well; it took an extra day to get out of the hospital, but I’m now feeling better than ever! I know it has been a while, but I hope you’ll enjoy a new CC&K. Today, the Next Generation Pastor, Matt Henderson, leads us through Colossians 2: 6-15; so, grab a cuppa & join me. I am toking💨 Blue Sherbet and am brewing a dark roast from Starbucks that I commandeered from my mother.
I hope you’re having a lovely day! We are going to begin in Colossians chapter two verse six:
6 hTherefore, as you received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in him, 7 irootedand jbuilt up in him and kestablished in the faith, just las you were taught,abounding min thanksgiving.
8 See to it that no one takes you captive by nphilosophy and oempty deceit,according to phuman tradition, according to the qelemental spirits1 of the world,and not according to Christ. 9 For rin him the whole fullness of deity dwellssbodily, 10 and tyou have been filled in him, who is uthe head of all rule andauthority. 11 In him also vyou were circumcised with a circumcision madewithout hands, by wputting off the body of the flesh, by the circumcision ofChrist, 12 xhaving been buried with him in baptism, in which yyou were alsoraised with him through faith in zthe powerful working of God, zwho raised himfrom the dead. 13 aAnd you, who were dead in your trespasses and theuncircumcision of your flesh, God bmade alive together with him, havingforgiven us all our trespasses, 14 by ccanceling dthe record of debt that stoodagainst us with its legal demands. This he set aside, nailing it to the cross. 15 wHedisarmed the rulers and authorities2 and eput them to open shame, byftriumphing over them in him.3
Colossians 2: 6-15 (ESV)
Pastor Matt began by discussing a time he had a kidney stone… a little too close for comfort, if you ask me. 😅 Because of the fact I’m recovering from surgery, this will be a short post, or shorter than usual.
We are attempting to depend on so many things to get through life, attempting to fill a void [for G-d] with ______ (insert your favourite idol). Jesus is the only true void-filler & he redefines how you should view your faith. Where can we be rooted • built up • strengthened in the faith? Why, church, of course; being part of, established in, & being THE church.
We do not redefine who G-d is – He redefines who we are.
{pain} 7 {sleep} 6h 14m of shite sleep.
We are in Springfield • I have surgery in the morning. • Good times.
Apologies for being absent, the pain has been exponentially worse as the days have passed. Prayerfully, this excessive pain will be gone tomorrow.
I look forward to catching up & writing so much you get tired of reading!
Talk Soon,
Cecelia ✌🏻🌊☕️

Cecelia
Latinate feminine form of the Roman family name Caecilius, which was derived from Latin caecus meaning “blind” or “hidden”.
For me, Cecelia is a family name; named after my grandmother, Elizabeth Cecelia, who was named for another amazing woman (my great grandma) before her, and so on… Cecelia can be found throughout my family tree going back a couple hundred years. The Polish spelling is apparently ‘Cecylia’ – however, there is one thing that could overcome nationalism…
…and that is Catholicism.
Saint Cecilia/Cecelia is the patron saint of music, musicians, supposedly because as she was being married off to a man she didn’t want to be with, she sang hymns to the Lord… but I’m getting ahead of myself.
All we know for certain about Saint Cecilia is that she lived, was a follower of Christ, and died a martyr… we do not have historical facts, [however] we have an inspiring legend that was [finally] written down around the fifth century in a book called The Passion of Saint Cecilia.

If you’d like to read that “reflection on the life of this holy martyr,” you can do so here. It is a beautiful (short) story about the power of our witness.
As for myself, I think that “blind” can be attributed to my tendency to look beyond race, sexual orientation, religion, etc. and be ‘blind’ to all the excess & focus on the person before me. It has made me a very good judge of character, as well as a bit of a black sheep at times throughout my life. I believe it is an unusual name for an unusual lady.
Post Script: According to the Urban Dictionary, Cecelia is:
• An amazing girl who can make anyone laugh even when they are sad. She is a fighter and even though her life isn’t ideal, she will keep pushing. A Cecelia is gorgeous and very smart even though it doesn’t show as much in school. She has a group of friends she has known forever and will take a bullet for her. She is the type of person who you might not notice right away but as soon as you meet her, you will never forget her.
by Dogloverandstuffwhatever February 15, 2016
• However, she can never see the beautiful side of herself the way others can and if she looks up her name in the urban dictionary, she will probably dismiss this as someone just being nice. But, it is true and a Cecelia is a fabulous person who makes an amazing how friend.
Person 1: Who is that?
Person 2: That’s Cecelia. You should meet her- she is super cool
{pain} 6.7 {sleep} 4h 57m • If you’ve had a kidney stone before, even with a stent, you probably experienced pain. Each time I attempt to get things accomplished, the pain becomes intense. I have been stuck in bed for most of the day, every day, for weeks & will continue to until surgery on the 25th.
I have been utilizing hyper-focus by watching (& binging) Vikings, Vikings Valhalla, & The Last Kingdom; I have now made it to Seven Kings Must Die.
And I have made it to the part where everything is thought lost & I despise the king like never before. Of course, I despise the history of all countries that sought to create a huge ‘empire’… it is brutal & back-stabbing.
However, the brutality, chaos, & gore does not turn my stomach the way the news headlines have recently. With that, I will wish you a good day.
Talk Soon,
Cecelia
