“The Great Stone Face”…

In these quiet spaces,

I become temporarily deaf

to the meaningless noises

that seek to define me.

In these quiet spaces,

my soul is nourished;

surrounded by silence,

my spirit soars upward.

In these quiet spaces,

my focus turns inward,

knowing that His Presence

is co-mingled with mine.

In these quiet spaces,

the renewing of my mind

occurs as my life, is…

humbled before Him.

In these quiet spaces,…

Food is big business in our society. But there are some things I have to keep reminding myself about food… 1) Something had to die so that I would live. With all the disconnect between people and their food – there are kids growing up today who actually believe that food comes from a store as if it materialized there. Food does not come from a store any more than a baby comes…

At the beginning of the 80s of the previous century (the 20^th) I've written a collection of short stories, which were dedicated to the world of art in my country.

Although these short stories were my very early creation, which have been defined as imperfect; I aspired to have it published and I roamed between our prominent…

While the modern western world, believe the west as the prime mover of modernization of the world, both within the field of innovation and ideology.  Many academic research suggest the west serious over rated its influence in world history.  With the exception of the Greeks and the Romans, western influence is mostly limited to the post industrial revolution era of 19th century.  Prior to that starting from the dark…

A few days have passed since my Kindle Books and Tips promotion for DROP OUT  http://www.amazon.com/dp/B005FX0K7U  has finished and I must say the results weren’t that bad. Though I have said in the past that I don’t believe paid promotion on websites has a return on investment and are good for exposure purposes only, this one seems to have paid out.

It used to be that Christians who wanted to share their faith would go out into the larger world to tell the good news and share scripture, teachings, and traditions of their church.  But now the very term Christian seems to turn some people off and the minute you mention faith, beliefs, church, or God you face an icy stare.  If you look closely at the person’s life – if that…

"Although repeated exposure to narratives of romance in popular culture from an early age may lead young women to expect idealized romance in their heterosexual love relationships, a good number encounter abusive experiences. This article draws on young women's stories of abuse in heterosexual love relationships gathered from interviews with 23 young women aged 16-18 years. These stories are examined using a feminist, poststructuralist form of narrative analysis to explore the…

Its three weeks now since I wrote my last blog entry and a great deal has happened in that time. Most of it, probably all of it, has been to do with re-inserting ourselves back in the British way of life, and what a pleasure it has been. This doesn’t mean that our previous Spanish way of life was inferior to what we are discovering over here in England, but it’s all so ‘user friendly’, if that’s the right way to put it. No doubt a major element of that is the language and how natural it all…

A floodgate of religions, opinions and the constant changing and twisting of historical Biblical facts by theologians, atheists and scientists, have saturated the minds of many people to believe that the only way to live in peace and happiness, is to deny the gospel and go after material things, unfortunately after death, the casket contains only the body but not all the amassed wealth one struggled and worked hard for.

Writing is an opportunity for me to think about my life, the larger world, and the issues of our times. Reflecting is akin to pondering and one of the women I admire most in the world was know for doing just that. Mary, the Mother of God, must have pondered many things in her heart. Her fiat was a strength which stemmed from God’s grace and her ability to ponder,…
