they serve a good purpose, but no greater purpose, than any others of God’s creation.
Truth is not theirs alone to control, or distribute, as they deem fit.
there’s always that one, on a humble fold-up bike ..
I feel like you say this kind of thing several times a day. I really don't think I'm better than you. Why not just talk? I agree that I'm not in control of truth, so if you have truth to share that is relevant to the subject, please share it.
I do think it's important to question the "facts" that we find in the media and on the Internet. That goes both ways, I hope we all do that.
i’m not talking to you anymore than i’m talking to myself.
if i repeat, which i may, i repeat to myself - something which i find exquisite and true, that astounds me.
you love quantified charts+graphs, i love the unknown quantity that God holds for us.
c’est la vie
i hope you can, at least, enjoy the bicycle ride.
i smiled, all through, i watched it a few times. lol
it brought back memories of being a young teen with my sister and girlfriends.
we were allowed to do some bicycling .. i’m not sure we were allowed to go “all the way” to the local university farm roads, St Mary’s Road, unpaved, with a bit of a hill! - on the prairie, we do not take hills for granted.
i was the oldest, by slightly, and a bit heavier. no one could understand how i won EVERY downhill race!
when, otherwise, i was not an athlete. i participated, never a stand-out!
our used bikes were all about the same.
sailing down the dirt roads, i laughed to myself, suspecting my one advantage (they never seemed to think of) - my weight!
like this priest, i used my weight, and cunning, to prevail!
o.the skinned knees and elbows.
