With this ring…

This weekend I had an adventure that I thought would be very solemn and meditative, but ended up being hysterically funny in the best possible way.  And I came out of it with a ring.  But perhaps I should back up a bit and tell you the story from the beginning…  🙂

The final assignment …

On my drive home tonight I had a conversation with myself that ended much differently than I expected.  And let me get this out of the way – I’m not happy about how it ended.  I exposed one of my own prejudices to myself and it’s decidedly uncomfortable.

Recently I’ve been listening to recordings of …

Finding God in unexpected places

As a kid, I was never really sure what “God” meant. It was something that everyone else seemed to understand that was completely beyond my grasp (little did I know that most people were playing a pretty good game of pretending they knew what it meant, too.)
