This is the space on May 21, 2009 where I last remember
experiencing an intense feeling of calm and peace; all was okay in the world. Three
days later I was devastated by a cruel and unexpected storm. Debris from it is still
washing upon the shores of my being.
"The world breaks every one and afterward many are strong at the broken places. But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these you can be sure it will kill you too but there will be no special hurry."
~ Ernest Hemingway, A Farewell To Arms

"Our lives disconnect and reconnect, we move on, and later we may touch one another, again bounce away. This is the felt shape of a human life, neither simply linear nor wholly disjunctive nor endlessly bifurcating, but rather this bouncey sequence of bumping into's and tumblings apart."
~ Salman Rushdie, The Ground Beneath Her Feet
Praying that you will have the righteousness of God flowing through you, so that as time goes on you will have more peace, quietness, confidence and contentment in your life. (Put on the whole armor of God, flesh & blood is not the enemy)
