Shortening winters day …well its not.

Todays a bit quiet as we feel again the frosty bite of another chill in this `too long a winter`, young nephews gone to school clutching a Valentine posse for his new school crush not sure how that will be received. LIFE. can feel pretty tough. Money can be tight. Doors can feel closed. So if we can really should try make the table we sit eat our food around a little bit bigger with place for another. its really that simple. so its up to me and you try to be kind.

In winter's loaded garment keenly blows
And turns her back on sudden falling snows,
To go where gravel pathways creep between
Arches of evergreen that scarce let through
A single feather of the driving storm;
And in the bitterest day that ever blew
The walk will find some places still and warm
Where dead leaves rustle sweet and give alarm
To little birds that flirt and start away.

Come to understand that we can easily be bullied by even old female folk. Yes that old statement the Church folk gang. So it started simple innocent enough, "my brotho tied to strangle me, after we had thrown water over each other".

This led to firstly view that the brother had become posed by a demon then quickly became issue identified with old 600 year old building no longer holding sacred people nor sacred position. We do that. We do that real well. Slaughter others who do not agree with that view you see every action which is unkind or even disturbing doesn't mean its posed of devil. We just can be unkind unthoughtful lack concern for others. 

we have something in the faith of following Jesus that is greater than that in the world. Better then wicked ways of economic grabbing spoilers the political elite or simply very awful neighbour. We have to share this faith journey because we have something bigger plus better. The Kingdom value of Jesus. Perhaps l am as guilty as the next person of not recalling there is something bigger better waiting in the Life after Life after death.

Yeah l know still getting my head around what the early Christian followers of Jesus accepted there is LIFE after LIFE after death. YOU see LIFE is about connection about being kind to others as best as you can. Also about connecting with others who do not agree with, like or accept are hell bent on sending others to hotbed concentration camp you decide who gets there. Yeah sometimes gotta eat with them at same table.

MAYBE WE WON`T MEET AGAIN

. . . she got a postcard in the mail
That just said Heaven,with a picture of the ocean and the beach
The simple words he wrote her
Said he loved her
How he'd hold her if his arms would reach
Wish you were here, wish you could see this place
Wish you were near,Wish I could touch your face
The weather's nice, it's paradise
It's summertime all year and there's some folks we know
They say, "Hello, "
I miss you so, wish you were here"
