A Partridge?

A. Unabashed Pacifist:

Violence cannot build anything; those who use violence destroy even what they value.

B. Unabashed Christian:

Holy One,

It takes a cosmos even to begin to display your greatness.
It takes an embrace to reveal your love.
It takes a fresh start to convey your forgiveness.
It takes a death to open the mystery of eternal life.
It takes a willing heart to recognize your presence.
You are here.
Amen

C. Un-quoting Jesus:

“On the first day of Christmas, my true love sent to me a partridge in a pear tree.”

[Frankly, He probably preferred the gold from the magi. But He never said either thing.]

D. Blog: Somethings to Consider

- Money can't buy happiness – but it's more comfortable to cry in a new Mercedes than in a used Fiat.

- After a certain age, if you don't wake up aching in every joint, you’re probably dead.

- We cannot defend freedom abroad by deserting it at home. – Edward R. Murrow

- Come the rapture, I’d like your car – if it’s available.
