May your heart be light, your spirits bright, hopes high, feet dry, and your best days yet ahead. SC


Divine Guidance directs us, whatever is true, noble, right, pure, lovely, admirable, excellent, and praiseworthy, think on such things. In today's chaotic world, we are too often distracted from the good, by the doubts, fears, violence, and apprehensions that daily assault our senses from the cacophony of chaos that surround us. Remember always, we still have a choice, and the threatening darkness should provide us incentive to raise our candle and brighten the world around us. Brighten the corner where you are. Take heart, my friends, and choose wisely. May your heart be light, your spirits bright, hopes high, feet dry, and your best days yet ahead.

The Nuthouse

 

This is the Nuthouse in the early 1970s. Located on a hilltop on Reservoir Hill, three miles from Placerville, on Mosquito Road, this 40-acre piece of heart & heritage was home to my family for many years. Walnut trees, California Poppies, Ponderosa Pines, peace and serenity. It survives today in photos and my memory. It's all gone now, and I miss it. SC

FAITH AND LOVE

 FAITH AND LOVE


Faith alone won’t keep us warm,
Or shelter us from rain.
Through faith we see beyond the storm.
We glimpse blue skies again.

Faith doesn’t keep the storms away.
The clouds aren’t really gone.
Through faith we smile anyway.
Through faith we carry on.

Faith doesn’t promise fairness,
Or excuse how others live,
But faith can bolster empathy.
Through faith, we can forgive.

Like love, faith hopes, faith can preserve.
The Book says God is love.
Through faith, we’re spared what we deserve.
Through faith, we rise above.

Love, like God, is infinite,
Rejoicing in the Truth,
Inherent in each one of us.
We know love from our youth.

Love dispels all questions.
Compassion trumps all doubt.
Love can’t dismiss all sorrows,
But love helps ease them out.

Some question Faith and Deity,
Denying God above,
Disdaining forces they can’t see,
But no one questions love.
