Thanks for sharing UNCLE ANDY : Even @ 31 & 35 names become elusive but weve grown accostumed to their face. I was taught to associate names with faces : because I need to call my clients by NAME fo reassurance I only have about 12 on the go at a time so I always get them right ! BRIAN is the same with students (names are important) but he has over 200 in any term. He has a DITTY for each Class with all the names in ! We love all things IRISH : Thanks for the CORRIES !
Blessings & Love in the Spirit for YOU & JOYCE
Yours as always ANGELA & BRIAN 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡

Oh this chimes too much with my cluttered life.
I am going to ebay my junk. And i have just discovered that facebook has selling groups throughout our county. De-cluttering will be my 2019 goal.
Though i fear that Poetic Dan has hit the reality and i will only end up re-cluttering.

We are all hoarders of all that STUFF,
my first scribble, my first grade,
my first ribbon from the parade
God know I can\'t take it with me
Nor convince a member of family
There is no intrinsic value, chump
One day they\'ll all be in a dump
WHAT, hoarded over years, my STUFF!!!!!!

I\'m going to say something that going to come across as callous, but maybe, just maybe it will give you a different perspective
Rebirths - tells us that the soul/person will be born again
Destiny - our present existence is the effect of our previous actions, as our reactions today are the cause of our future
Heaven or Hell - there is no celestial heaven, or a fiery pit of hell, it is the life we are living, and the longevity is the sentence
If we accept these definitions, it will give us the courage to face our present.
BUT THESE DO NOTHING TO REMOVE OUR CURRENT PAIN, WHICH MAKES US QUESTION EVERYTHING.
If my wishes could comfort or cure, you have them in abundance

With that in mind as a tear runs down my face, I hope her mind finds some comfort in your inspirational bravery.

This God hasn\'t spoken to anyone i know Goldfinch.
It is a myth created by mankind and surrounded by pathetic excuses when we ask \'why\' about some terrible disaster in our lifes.
Cleverly the \'fear of god\' is instilled in us as children so that the various \'churches\' have a power over us.
Anyway, if i am totally wrong then ask yourself this. Is an omnipotent god capable of doing everything but doesn\'t EVER come up with the goods really worth worshiping?

Andy,
I’ve been reading your daily postings. I can almost feel the pain you feel! It is during those painful times that the faithful question their God! They feel forsaken by Him! I know your belief is strong and irrefutable! As my dad would say, “Now is the time to be the strongest you have ever been!” I never questioned his belief in his God because it comforted him and kept him strong till the end! Early one morning we found his lifeless body in his favorite chair...with a smile on his face! That is what I remember the most about his death...his smile! Whenever I think of him (every single day), I see his smile...and that makes me happy! I no longer think of his suffering! He endured it and never questioned it because of his faith!
Stay strong!
My love to Joyce and to you!

I can understand this gold. I fuss about \'outward\' things. Sometimes I decide on that, to go to church or not - too cold; too rainy; etc.
But it\'s more than that really. Then there\'s me about to write a poem on oils, healing, etc.
In one of the darkest Psalms (88) the Psalmist cries out to God. Hardly a glimmer of praise in it. It seems he is about to die too. Yet I read in a commentary that he still holds on to God.....somehow.

Play to-day, we each need
Cheated a little, but still fun.
I play such games in my head many many times.
There is a sentence in Hindi, to show the importance of punctuation, but it doesn\'t translate to English very well:
Crude attempt:
An enemy spy is trying to gain entrance to a fort to blow up the armory and presents a hand written note to the sentry, which says:
STOP DON\'T LET GO
He was allowed in because the sentry read it as,
STOP DON\'T, LET GO
Where as it was meant to read
STOP, DON\'T LET GO
you can guess the outcome.
I thought you all may like this levity as well
