Sons & Fathers and Wrestling with God: A Picture
I found a picture. Well, truth be told I found lots of pictures. Well, truth be told I found lots of everything. I spent the summer cleaning and going through Dad’s house. There was and is so much. So much from my grandma, so much from him, so much from me. There was so much,…

The Sun, The Sea, And Me

Back and dreaming dreams in the song of songs in the blog of blogs in the November of Novembers. V. 1 She dreams that she is looking for her lover, (the bed, the place where we think and drift and hopefully find rest or we spend our time being restless). V. 2 In her dream…
