sundar
Sundar, whom i introduced some of you to last time, was a wonderful story teller in the tradition of the sadhus. he said that the change came in the "prodigal's" heart, not in the pig sty and not in the feast that the father had prepared, but a few days later when the son realized......Read More

dang it
an old friend called today. they ended our friendship with no warning and no explanation. and now i have stomach tsunamis happening. if i went back into this friendship with this family, i would feel stupider than dirt if they crushed me again. on the other hand, if they really do......Read More

love choices
this is the kind of thought that seems to get me in hot water, but i believe i just had a lightbulb moment. there were, of course, reasons on both sides of the situation that Jesus came here to rectify. some heresies have Jesus being a God Who leaves no footprints when He walks.......Read More

hi folks
i have got a friend who has been in thoughts.com one month longer than me. she has over 7900 views of her profile. i have 400. numbers don't lie. i think it may be painfully obvious who belongs here and who is simply hitching a ride. i suck at this. no one has looked at my blog since......Read More

don't you get it?
