We all come up wanting to make our mark on this world, but the further I move into the middle of mid-life, I notice the growing list of my words & deeds that I hope are lost to history, forgotten by all.
Those who pray are aware of their own limitations; they do not kill or threaten with death. Instead, death enslaves those who have turned their backs on the living God, turning themselves and their own power into a mute, blind and deaf idol (Ps 115:4–8), to which they sacrifice every value, demanding that the whole world bend its knee. Enough of the idolatry of self and money! Enough of the display of power! Enough of war! True strength is shown in serving life. #Peace
Here's a reminder to pause, disconnect and unplug now and again. We weren't meant to function at this constant level of stress and the constant stream of stressful news. Remember to breathe.
Reading about the insane numbers of books that ordinary working people used to read a hundred years ago feels like seeing pictures of the Pacific Ocean back when it teemed with whales. Hard to comprehend what we’ve lost.

When Ken Burns asked every living president to recite the Gettysburg Address in 2013, Pres. Carter shared this story about Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin and the Camp David Accords. @UNUMKenBurns
@Dominguez73 I miss my Brother everyday and would have loved to have had the opportunity with my Sister to prank him once again on his birthday. While the pandemic is history, Covid is alive and still creating havoc for those who chose to ignore it! I agree with David, NEVER forget! Love you!
Today is my Dad’s birthday. He would have turned 74 today, but passed away from COVID in Jan. ‘21. Like so many, his time here was cut short; he still had dreams and lots to live for. COVID seems like ancient history now, but I pray we never forget. 🙏
🇵🇱🇺🇦 Poland is planning to create an alliance in Europe to support Ukraine in connection with Donald Trump's rise to power in the U.S., - The Times citing a statement by Polish PM Tusk.
"We will actively coordinate cooperation with countries that share our views on the geopolitical and transatlantic situation, as well as on the situation in Ukraine. No one wants an escalation of the conflict, but no one will allow Ukraine to weaken or capitulate. This would be a serious threat to Poland and our interests."
❗️The alliance may include Great Britain, the Nordic countries and the Baltics.
