WELCOME to Tree House Reflections

This blog is coming to you from a tree house in Glacier, Washington, a tiny town in the foothills of Mount Baker. The author is a retired school teacher from Phoenix, Arizona, who has the audacity to think that reflections on her life might provide insights, comfort and amusement to her readers. If you would enjoy reading her essays, poems, memoirs, observations, prayers and comments, climb the stairs to this tree house on the banks of Glacier Creek and join me, Judy Borman Harding, as I share with you what I have learned in my seventy two of life!




If you can relate to any of the following, you may find something edifying:


Experiencing a traumatic event in early childhood
relinquishing a child for adoption
being estranged from family
being diagnosed with mental illness
losing a grandchild to abortion
marrying a person of another race
having your child abused by a family member
losing your religious faith
having a radical religious conversion
having cancer
being morbidly obese
Coming close to death


I have personally experienced all of the above and now "open the book."


IF YOU DON’T NEED INSIGHTS OR SUPPORT IN ANY OF THESE AREAS, BUT JUST WANT TO HEAR MY THOUGHTS ON FAMILY, FAITH, FLORA AND FAUNA, I CAN PROMISE YOU WILL FIND SOMETHING OF INTEREST HERE!
