April 18, 2018 – 51 and still a child

Published April 18, 2018 / by admin / Leave a Comment

I learned some things about myself this week, that, frankly, after 50+ years, I had not really considered.  I guess I should put this in context, in order to make it make better sense.  The past several months have been personally challenging.  I have kept much of it to myself, probably out of vanity and […]

February 23, 2018 – If I Were the Devil

Published February 23, 2018 / by admin / Leave a Comment

Paul Harvey wrote this in 1964.  Prophetic. If I were the prince of darkness, I would want to engulf the whole world in darkness. I’d have a third of its real estate and four-fifths of its population, but I would not be happy until I had seized the ripest apple on the tree — thee. […]

February 9, 2018 – That Forever Person

Published February 10, 2018 / by admin / Leave a Comment

I have a friend who has been married for over 20 years, but when I hear him talk to his wife you wouldn’t think it was his best friend – far from it. When his wife talks to him, you wouldn’t think he was her chosen one either. I hear others talk to their spouses […]

February 7, 2018 – Digging Archaeological Trenches

Published February 7, 2018 / by admin / Leave a Comment

Before archaeologists spend time and money excavating an area they always (well, almost always) dig an shallow trench across the area to be studied to see if it’s worth expending the effort for a full scale dig. They carefully plan the excavation and if something of interest is uncovered, they make an informed decision to […]

January 26, 2018, Natura naturans

Published January 26, 2018 / by admin / Leave a Comment

i picked this topic to cover two different issues: environmental impacts of global warming and decisions I’ve been wrestling with on faith. The philosophy of Natura naturans was put forth in the Middle Ages by Baruch Spinoza as a contrast to those who said that nature had to be cared for because it was created. […]

Published January 15, 2018 / by admin / Leave a Comment

As the readers of our blog know, I have quoted from Dr. King’s speeches on occasion. He was an eloquent man who made a difference. I’d like to share some of my favorite quotes by Dr. King to start the new year and to remind us of Dr. King’s message – love and hope. “Darkness […]

2018 Week Two – The Year of the Friend

Published January 13, 2018 / by admin / Leave a Comment

Like my coauthor, I had really good intentions of writing a few entries this week but failed even one until today. I hope the approach I’ll be taking compensates for my sloth. As we’ve stated before, the intent of this blog is to leave some trace of who we are for future generations. Much of […]
