    After 2 weeks of being sick with many days in bed, I have come to appreciate what some people go through when they have a severe sickness. My sickness wasn’t that devastating.

    This week the Gracious Mistress of the Parsonage made a little slip. To her, it was a little slip, but to me, it was a big mistake. It is not always that she makes mistakes that I can profit on.

    Robbie Williams: "I don’t think anyone can ever be fully happy. If you’re fully happy then you’re a miserable person, because the grass is always greener on the other side--it has to be. I’m not saying I’m miserable--in fact I’m the happiest I’ve been for a long time, but I’m no happier than I ...read more

    A CHILD'S VIEW OF GOD Many of you know that I did not grow up in the church. My family was not religious, and so, we seldom spoke of God.
