Soli Deo Gloria, Solas Christus, Sola gratia, Sola scriptura, Sola fide.


Summer is Gone
from ancient irish poetry
My tidings for you: the stag bells,
Winter snows, summer is gone.
Wind high and cold, low the sun,
Short his course, sea running high.
Deep-red the bracken, its shape all gone-
The wild-goose has raised his wonted cry.
Cold has caught the wings of birds;
Season of ice - these are my tidings.

Pepper

Perhaps the air in La Mirada does smell better, and the water does taste better. But something is just not the same. It's the scent of change. Like the smell on your hands after you rub a nickle aroun...

Corner of the Continent

So we were coming home from the Kettle -traditional late night snack- and Zack insists that we stop by the ocean and say hello.I am freezing. But as soon as I have taken off my sandals I realize that ...

Finding Unusual Answers [Squared]

Well, I miss you. Yes, you...very much. I'm glad you've found an answer, in fact I believe we have shared it in the, perhaps unknown, sectors of our shared consciousness - even before the physignom...

monera

What is it that makes us want to live? By definition life, as a living organism, has many characteristics: order, made up of cells, regulation, ability to reproduce. But what is it that keeps living t...

When I consider...

Shuffle, glance up, look down again because no one is smiling. Sigh, look to the left, look down again because it hurts to stare. The linoleum is a dirty sand color, light from the flourescent bulb...
