Poem: Spiritual Values

Genuine spiritual values

bring us both light and joy,

when we belong to Christ -

as His faithful girls and boys.

This is possible when we lean

on the foundation of Scriptures.

For true Life can be found within

the Kingdom’s wisdom and virtues.

Exercising faith will be our key

for staying on our holy path.

Remember that the wages of sin,

can not escape Jehovah’s wrath.

We need to accept the gift of Grace

and be submerged under…

NSA and Nagging Pieces

It may possibly go away sometime, but one has to wonder. As I wrote in June about NSA and the UK, James Bamford gave a tremendous history of our connection with the UK since and in spite of our gaining independence. They have remained our steadfast ally on the globe. The 2oth century clandestine connections are detailed in particular. Then the “Cold War” connections in late 40s…

Book Review: The Emporium by Robert Linn

Did you ever think that there is more to life than meets the eye or that one can ever imagine?  This is a metaphysical question, but one that is worth pondering. It would be a shame if the world was only what we perceived and saw with the naked eye.

 

     How many would fathom the idea that the illusory could become reality? Very few would perhaps. However, it…

PRAYER 1 - Questions

Prayer 1

For UCB

3 min script

 

Thinking about Prayer, there is lots of things that puzzle me. Let me ask you some questions.  Why is it that Prayer through the night, all night is better than prayer through the day all day?

 

Why is it that some people have to shout loud when they pray, Perhaps God is a little deaf, that happens when you get older, though it…

How to Make Money Writing Nonfiction Articles

If you are a nonfiction writer, there are seemingly endless resources for publishing articles. I say "seemingly" because numbers are deceptive. Getting a nonfiction article published in a reputable magazine can be just as daunting as publishing a short story in The Atlantic. Unless you are a recognized expert in your field, the competition will be fierce.

But…

When 14000 isn't such a big number

I’m making good progress with my current mss. Last week I had reached 34000 words. By the weekend I had managed to notch that up to 47000. This puts me about halfway through my planned number of words. If I can keep that kind of progress up, I can expect to complete my first draft by the end of September. However, I think my last week’s output was exceptional, and would only expect to complete about 3 to 4 thousand words a week. We’ll see.

And on the subject of big numbers, or small,…

Paint Me Althena - by Naomi Musch - a review

Paint Me Althena is a story about second chances. Ava abandoned her family three years ago in a quest to find herself – or so she claimed. But fulfillment continues to sidestep her at every turn. Then, unlikely circumstances throw her and her estranged husband Ethan back into each others’ lives. Learning to trust again isn’t easy for either of them, especially with meddlesome in-laws, complicated new relationships, and a mountain of guilt. At times I was frustrated with the heroine’s choices…

THE DOC in Print Soon

 

This is a shot of the event that was last posted, almost a year ago. What is the last of it's use now is the beautiful cover for THE DOC, the Confederate battle flag surrounding the Washington monument above a wheat field. I am supposed to cease using it as that publishing contract is no terminated. That is what is the new news here. THE DOC is being…

Absence

It is good to get back to this site, one of the first that I joined in the mid-2000s decade. I realize an apology isn't necessary, but as an older immediate supervisor once told me, "these things happen." Anyway, had computer problems, lost all favorites lists, and am just thankful I had backed up documents and files. I am thankful that I did not detect that odor of acrid burnt wire that I had when a surge took out a machine at work one time. I had asked the tech administrator, "Do you think…
