The Space We Were Given
My wife came home excited. She had to tell me what had happened in her Bible study.
For some time, I have been working on a project called Creating Space. It hopes to help communities offer contemplative experiences when they need assistance doing so.
The Desire to Stay Home
It was time for our annual journey to the Northeast to visit family.
We gave up driving some years ago after realizing that we were spending more time in the car than with the people we had traveled to see. Besides, we are getting too old for all of that driving.
Giving Myself Away
I had to give up my volunteer work at the Food Bank. My wife and I have been going once a week for a couple of hours. Volunteer work is never really work. But tell that to my back.
Protesting the Game
My wife was in the middle of a game of solitaire when she showed me the cards on the table. There were two fours of spades.
When the Fire Is Far Away
I received a phone call from my nephew yesterday. He wanted to tell me about the fires near his home in Spokane, Washington. As he described what he was seeing, the only word I could find was unimaginable.
