searching for rivendell: February 2012
http://searching4rivendell.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Personal and spiritual search for beauty, truth, and goodness. Wednesday, February 15, 2012. Black nails and valentine's tales. I've had very painful tennis elbow for three months. I also heard people complain about the day; "my daughter would always come home without receiving a Valentines" and "I think Valentine's should be about him pursuing me". Every year I'm reminded about what this day is: it is to remember a martyr, a priest sainted for his sacrifice to Christ. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Churche...

searching for rivendell: to know joy
http://searching4rivendell.blogspot.com/2011/12/to-know-joy.html
Personal and spiritual search for beauty, truth, and goodness. Saturday, December 10, 2011. Man is fond of counting his troubles, but he does not count his joys. If he counted them up as he ought to, he would see that every lot has enough happiness provided for it. Fyodor Dostoevsky. He loves his children that much. Whatever my lot thou has taught me to say, it is well, it is well with my soul." Horatio Spafford (whose story and life were wrought with sorrow and inspired the hymn quoted).

Personal and spiritual search for beauty, truth, and goodness. Saturday, December 24, 2011. Even the rocks cry out! Salvation is near. Rejoice! For you have been given the oil of gladness. Rejoice! For the light will overcome the darkness. JOY! For the sackcloth has been torn. Joy! For the Heavens cry out with song. SING! For good news has been proclaimed to the poor. Sing! For freedom has come to the captives. SHOUT! You have been given a garment of praise. Sing! For I have overcome the world.". I miss ...

Personal and spiritual search for beauty, truth, and goodness. Wednesday, October 5, 2011. Notes from the big city:. Bright, sunny walks in the city after eight days of the flu are eye opening and life giving. Children and babies on the bus or public transportation make me smile. Narcissists on public transportation make me want to scream, "the world's axis does not rotate just around you! I passed by a Rabbi today and it no longer felt like a strange thing. Rather, a daily occurrence. City life is more ...

Personal and spiritual search for beauty, truth, and goodness. Monday, August 15, 2011. Mine eyes do smell an onion.". Iced tea in gray gray weather. At least I'm not alone; an elderly couple just walked by dressed for summer. No one told them we were having a "monsoon" all week long. Am I now part of the collective we? Someday. Ha. The woman who chose the seat next to me bought an iced tea. I guess I'm not that strange after all. August 25, 2011 at 10:37 AM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Personal and spiritual search for beauty, truth, and goodness. Monday, February 7, 2011. It is hard to have patience with people who say 'There is no death' or 'Death doesn't matter.' There is death. And whatever is matters. And whatever happens has consequences, and it and they are irrevocable and irreversible. You might as well say that birth doesn't matter." C.S. Lewis. I miss my friend.

Leave room for God’s wrath. Do not be overcome by evil. Overcome evil with good. Thursday, January 6, 2011. Churches in th...
