To be Loved.

"Don't struggle and strive so, my child./ There is no race to complete, no point to prove, no obstacle to conquer for you to win my love./ I have already given it to you./ I loved you before creation drew its first breath./ I dreamed you as I molded Adam from the mud./ I saw you wet from the womb./ And I loved you then."


- Mpho Tutu and Desmond Tutu, from Made for Goodness

It's cold out there

And in here too.


Weekends are perfect days to sit be the fire and work on unfinished projects requiring computer use.

To Be Alive

To be alive is to be broken; to be broken is to stand in need of grace.

Volunteers

This firefighter volunteered to show elementary school kids  what his job is all about.


The clothing they wear.


The hat.


Oxygen.


Shoes and radio.


Getting ready to test the hose.

Awareness

"Awareness requires a rupture with the world we take for granted; then old categories of experience are called into question and revised."

Warner Farmer's Market

It is thrilling to have this market so close on Saturdays. I stumbled into it this last weekend as I drove by, and had to stop and visit.
