The Saddest Day
I didn’t want to write this post. I’ve been putting it off for a couple of months, maybe convincing myself that if I didn’t write about it, it wasn’t real.. But the time comes when you have to face reality. In the not too distant future, I am going to need a new phone. I’m […]
Random Thoughts For Wednesday
I’d blame COVID brain fog for today’s post, but I haven’t caught the virus yet. I guess that means I have no justification for what you are about to read. After two yeras of pandemic, many of us have noticed a certain amount of indecision creeping into our lives. That was my problem last night. […]
Maybe He Is Real
Went for a walk in the neuighborhood shortly after Sunrise on Easter Sunday. Spotted this rabbit. No sign of eggs though.
Old Songs, New Feel
I was raised in a non-liturgical church tradition. That didn’t mean we didn’t have a worship liturgy, just that we didn’t call it that. Part of that upbringing was a disdain for written prayers, except, of course, The Lord’s Prayer. The theory was that God wanted to hear what was on our hearts, spontaneous thoughts, […]
Words To Ponder
Normally I wouldn’t quote an obscure American President, or even a well-known one, but for once I stumbled across a statement that I agreed with! No idea if President Taft really said this. If you are a long-time frequenter of this spot, you know I have used that quite before – 2015 I think it […]
Perspective
I can’t remember if I have shared this image before – it’s been sitting on my computer for a couple of years. It seemed like a good reminder this morning, especially as I think on all the things I “must” get done in the coming week. Everything somehow seems urgent some days, yet at the […]
2021 In Review: Merry Christmas – Christ Is Risen
We continue our look at the most popular posts of 2021 with this one from Christmas Day 2015. I understand the appeal of this one – without Christmas there would be no Easter. And without Easter Christmas would be unimportant. I’m not confused. I know it is Christmas – but the day would have no […]
2021 In Review: Language Lessons
When I wrote in 2018 about the two actors featured in the German language lessons millions of immigrants to Germany study, I didn’t expect the post to be more than a curiosity. I know the adventures of Tim and Lara made my classes a bit more fun, and given that this post was the sixth […]
Wecome to 2022!
It has become an annual tradition. At the beginning of January I post the top ten most viewed posts here from the previous year. Maybe it is a leftover from my radio days and those end-of-year countdowns. Those posts will start tomorrow. This year I have noticed a real difference. And it isn’t only that […]
