Golden Rules (Tell His Story)


 Still down with the longest flu I've ever had, but I'll throw this out there...

Be magnanimous in victory.

Be gracious in defeat.

Share ice cream (Sylvia, how did you sneak that in?).

And move on.

The Space Between


I've been running really high fevers lately, and Reality is starting to break through the edges of my orderly little life.

I have now spent quite awhile 
'tween this world and the next.
I'm really going out in style,
and wish I could but text
you of the wonders that I see,
flying dogs and long-lost friends,
Apostles and the Trinity,
and a grand pub-crawl that never ends.
There's Jesus on the rifle range...
BOOM! What the heck, He MISSED?
That is really very strange,
and now He doth insist 
that I take His piece and try the thing,
and I break the heart of the ten-ring.

There is so much more, though, angels ascending and descending, swirling noise and colours you can smell and taste, laughter and love and fistfights, a cacophony of epiphany.

And a message to bring back:

Be graceful in defeat, and magnanimous in victory.

The Five Minute Friday Prompt this week is TOWARD.

All I can offer is a haiku.

As ice presses toward victory,
the spring waits in the sky
with a smile.

Sylvia takes it for granted that there's Foster's-flavoured ice cream.

Over To You (Tell His Story)


Been running a high fever for a few days, so coherency is an issue.

But I can't leave you without a starter for conversation, so...

What's you favourite Beatles song?


The video is charming.

Sylvia likes it too.
