There is something noble about not giving up. We now live in a world where failing is always the result of something or someone else and we resist accepting responsibility for our actions, but there is something noble about getting up off the canvas and continuing to fight. I have been up and I have…
Alfie
I'm not angry that a little boy lost his life, but I am sad. I'm not angry that a country with socialized health care would let a little boy die either. What does make me angry is that this country, with socialized health care, forced this little boy to die, even though all the parents…
Hard Questions
In my circle of friends and family there is a friendly battle, endlessly going on over creation, evolution, God, faith and unbelief. For me the battlefield is Facebook, and both sides have their cheerleaders, and mostly I just sit in the stands and watch, horrified beyond anything I could comfortably add to a post that…
Experience.
We are hanging by a thread. I think that one of the hardest things anybody can do is to change someone's thinking. At one time I did not think this way, but the truth has set in. That job is best left to experience. Politicians know this and liberals don't even bother with folks like…
War, Faith And Understanding
Christians, He Is Risen! There is a war going on all around us. Every day, every night, while we work, sleep or play and most people are unaware. To us it looks like issues that divide us, and it is an ever expanding list, constantly pushing the perimeters outward. But for some issues it's pushing…
Death And Sadness.
We all live in a peculiar time. Two hundred years ago news might have taken weeks or even months to travel what we would now consider a short distance. News of the death of someone you knew might not get to you for quite awhile. I have been praying for a former coworker who was…
This, That and the Other
I am getting a little too good at guessing the Price is Right showcase . "We have to do something", may put you on a road you do not intend . In sixty- one years I have never successfully torn dead skin away from my cuticles. I just failed again. Nothing will expand your vocabulary…
How To Instantly Improve Your Eyesight.
Clean your glasses from time to time. Life is good. ws
Daylight Savings Time.
Admit it, today is the first time in months that your car has the correct time on it. I learned at a very young age that you spring forward and fall back. So even as a child I wondered why I needed to lose an hour at the beginning of good weather and get it…
The History of Control.
I don't think people ever got along. If you're a godless evolutionist, you know that as soon as the second creature evolved into a human that an argument started over a rock or a stick or who owned this tree or that. I bet that was a hoot to watch since language hadn't been developed…
