One Final Word
My dear friend Michele slipped into eternity on Wednesday, February 1. She was a remarkable woman who left a legacy of faith, determination, and love. For three years she courageously battled the ovarian cancer that eventually robbed her of her life. A few days before she died, one of her docto

The rumors of my demise have been greatly exaggerated
My husband told me that there are rumors that I've died. I'm happy to report that I'm still very much alive. My cancer has gone to stage four but we are controlling it with chemo, the cancer numbers are currently in the normal range. I've stopped blogging to concentrate on my daughters and writing a

An update and a prayer request
Several people have asked about Michele's condition, and have promised to pray for her. On her behalf, I thank you for that. I spoke with her a little while ago, and she asked that I come here and tell you what's going on, and to ask you to pray for her. She isn't able to post here herself right

The peace that passes all understanding, pt. 1
I'm coming out of my normal hiding place to make a few comments.
The internet is a strange place. It is often a wonderful place, a helpful place, a unifying place. But it is also alienating, cold, and is the perfect medium in which to depersonalize others.
Through it, I have seen people reach out

Ah…you remembered McCain’s gaffe (that he made at least 5 times that have been caught on record). Let’s see if Obama can learn from his mistake faster than McCain did from his.
Hope your finals went well, and that your nose is healing quickly.

“Hope your finals went well, and that your nose is healing quickly.”
Thanks, the first was OK and my next one is on Tuesday. Nose seems to be healing though it’s pretty swollen still.

Well, one can find out how many states there are by counting the stars on the flag, but no one knows the difference between Sunnis and Shiites, least of all themselves.

I guess that’s why they’ve been enemies for centuries.

McCain’s error is very serious.
Obama’s error is simply the result of being tired after a grueling campaign schedule.
McCain made his error several times, even after being corrected several times. And McCain’s error shows a serious misconception of the difficulties in Iraq; a misconception that could lead to wrong policy and strategy.
Indeed, it appears that McCain and many on the far right seek to lump all Middle Eastern and Muslim groups of people together, and label all of them as terrorists. It’s almost like McCain is saying, hey, they all look alike to me, they’re all Muslims, therefore they are all terrorists.
McCain is the wrong person at this point in time. He would prolong the disastrous Iraq war indefinitely, and seems itching for a new war in Iran. I honestly don’t see how anyone of good conscience can support someone with such a pro-war stance.
