My Least Favorite Things
Monday, August 18th, 2008 The other night I saw a very funny ” Sound of Music” inspired episode of ” Will and Grace”.

True Love
Thursday, August 14th, 2008” Our culture has taught us to equate love with gratification- with getting rather than giving, with talking rather than sharing, with being our own persons rather than feeling a oneness with our mates. Therefore, it is not surprising that people go in and out of relationships since the returns are bound to fall short […]
Word for Writers
Thursday, August 14th, 2008“[ For the director of music. To the tune of “Lilies.” Of the Sons of Korah. A maskil. A wedding song. ] My heart is stirred by a noble theme as I recite my verses for the king; my tongue is the pen of a skillful writer.”- Psalm 45:1 ( NIV)

Pilgrim’s Prayer
Tuesday, August 5th, 2008 Pilgrim’s Prayer
Lord, love on me.
Restore life in me.
Grow joy in me,
Until I laugh with You again.
Quiet my heart.
Extend my hands.
Strenthen my feet,
Until I run with you again.
Jesus in my heart.
I’m worry free.
Lord, renew my mind,
Until You’re all I believe.
Poets Perspective
Diary- August 5, 2008 Fourth Entry
Tuesday, August 5th, 2008I really look up to Robin McGraw, who is married to Dr. Phil.

Robin is also the author of a wonderful book titled, ” Inside My Heart.”
Robin seems to have discovered the art of being an ever supportive spouse […]
Diary- August 5, 2008 Third Entry
Tuesday, August 5th, 2008From its earliest airing on the radio, I have loved the following song.
