Country Is In The Heart

August 2, 2019 By Charity M. Richey-Bentley Leave a Comment

I’m one of “those women”.  You know, the kind of woman who grew up country and is very proud of it.  I grew up in Coal City, Alabama.  Whenever someone asks me where I’m from, I always say, “Coal City, Alabama…aka God’s Country.” Country ain’t in the North.  Country ain’t in the South.  Country is […]

I Am So, So Thankful

May 21, 2019 By Charity M. Richey-Bentley Leave a Comment

Sometimes I am feeling so blessed that I just have to stop what I am doing and thank people for all they do.  People who make my life better, easier, happier just by being in it. I am thankful to those special people in my life who support me, uplift me, comfort me and bring […]

Slow Down And Relax This Labor Day

September 1, 2018 By Charity M. Richey-Bentley 1 Comment

So, Monday is Labor Day.  The day we are supposed to slow down, take it easy and relax.  How many of you have started a “to-do” list for all the things you want to get done on your “off” day? Doesn’t that defeat the purpose of Labor Day? I had started a list.  I was […]

Old Roads, Old Dogs, Old Folks And Old Ways

August 21, 2018 By Charity M. Richey-Bentley 1 Comment

Let’s slow down for a second.  Inhale and slowly exhale.  Just breathe.  Isn’t our world fast?  Today everything just seems to be so sped-up!  You hurry to get showered and dressed for your day.  You hurry through your first cup of coffee.  You hurry to get out the door, drop the kids off and hurry […]

Never Underestimate The Power Of Grandma’s Prayers

July 29, 2018 By Charity M. Richey-Bentley 4 Comments

I’ve learned from experience.  And the “experience” is my entire life.  I know the power of prayer prayed by a Godly woman.  I know it because I’ve been on the receiving end of it. Grandma’s prayers are the reason a lot of us are still here. ~Unknown What about it?  True for you too? My grandmother […]

The Ride Goes On

October 27, 2017 By Charity M. Richey-Bentley 1 Comment

While on this ride called LIFE, you have to take the good with the bad, smile when you’re sad, love what you’ve got and remember what you had. Always forgive, but never forget. Learn from your mistakes, but never regret. People change. Things go wrong. Just remember, the RIDE goes on. ~Unknown Life goes on.  No matter how much you wish that life […]

The Happiest People

October 26, 2017 By Charity M. Richey-Bentley 2 Comments

The happiest people don’t have the best of everything.  They just make the best of everything they have. ~Unknown. I’m living proof of this.  I was raised by the two strongest women on the planet, my mother and grandmother.  To say we didn’t have a lot growing up is an understatement.  My daddy and mother […]

Back In The Day

October 18, 2017 By Charity M. Richey-Bentley Leave a Comment

This time of the year brings back memories of long past days. A time when my curfew was lightning bugs. My parents didn’t call my cell, they yelled my name. I played outside, not online. We said the blessing before every meal. We didn’t text people at the dinner table, we talked to each other. If I didn’t eat what mama […]
