I’m not religious. I grew up Episcopalian. I talk to God often to say thank you and I’m sorry. I consider myself to be spiritual. Which for me means, that WWJD is too confining. It is a perfect mantra for life However, it doesn’t, in my mind, encompass everything. So I like to meditate upon WWGD. I have often said there is only one God. But that there are as many different Gods as there are different minds to perceive Him. And therein lays humanities rub. But this time of year that we have chosen to celebrate the birth of the Christ child, takes me back to my roots in the Church. If you have never rejoiced in a miracle, the ultimate gift of love and peace. Then, just once, I suggest you do. 12/9/2017 |

Oh thank you so much Bluesy! I just love it when someone thinks I've said something profound. Makes it easier to serve up a heaping pile of BS the next time. No, seriously, thank you for not finding me politically incorrect etc. ~L |

Hmm... Even "BS" ( not me  ) can be 'profound' when properly served. Sometimes you can even become a president of something or other...if you get really good at it, that is! ...just bein' Bluesy |

Hmmm, I think I could not live that way having to sustain myself eating s**t. Though I have downed my fair share over the years. ~L |

Pinkycarol, There are certain hymns and carols that always bring that feeling back. Rejoice indeed. ~L |
