Zooming in on Love ...

After I have read the haunting poem of Renee' ...

Dedicated to the lives lost on 9/11/01
IMAGINE...
ALL THE PEOPLE (Lennon)

When I am contemplating a moral question, I always ask "What would Jesus do?"  Sometimes the answer is not easy, convenient, or popular, but it's always the right one.  Here's a hint to solve the riddle:  "Take an eye for an eye" is Old Testament and "Turn the other cheek" is New Testament.  Hmmm.....

I would love to see Osama Bin Laden get creamed, but hope that there is not too much collateral damage (i.e., innocent women and children).  Otherwise the cycle of injustice and revenge (the "aftertaste") will just continue.  Just ask the Jews and Arabs how long a tit-for-tat revenge fest can last.

Beware of "I'M THE SENIOR-PASTOR" mentalities!!

Verlies vra min woorde...

Hope y'all like this little poem. The adjective "quiet" should be pronounced as one syllable, to produce the 5-7-5 syllable structure of the Japanese haiku. Notice the textural associations suggested by the images, the alliterations, & the rhymes.

Is there anything better than making up?!
