Yankee girl in Arthur's court

You can't appreciate home till you've left it, money till it's spent, your wife till she's joined a woman's club, nor Old Glory till you see it hanging on a broomstick on the shanty of a consul in a foreign town. O. Henry Porter 1862-1910, American short-story Writer

Thought for the day

O Lord, May I believe in the darkness
When all hope has vanished
When waves beat with fury
And no star lights my sky.

May I believe without feeling or knowing or proving
Till one shining moment when
You shatter the darkness
And all I believed for
Is suddenly mine.

-R.Calkin

A Living Prayer...

.......In these trials of life I find
another voice inside my mind

He comforts me
and bids me live
inside the love the father gives...

A Living Prayer, Alison Krauss
