I love that rest is more restful when we've worked well. And work is more fulfilling when we've rested well.

Calvin and Hobbes ended twenty-nine years ago today. My dad was a big fan, so I snipped this comic out of the newspaper and gave it to him framed for his birthday.

My true love is extremely generous but I hope this is the last day of gifts. It's two days after Christmas and we already have so much poultry.

If you like J.R.R. Tolkien or C.S. Lewis, you'll find a great friend in reading George MacDonald as they did! Rarely have I encountered a soul so deep in modern literature, and consider him a mentor to me.

I'm at the point in a fictional movie about Charles Dickens' writers block where, after he writes about the ghosts of Christmas past and present, he dejectedly says, "...and that's all I have."

I love that the #Bluesky desktop and app user interface mimics Twitter's. It's like we're getting a second chance to do it right.

Do you like looking up at the stars at night? 🌌 As you do, you may enjoy listening to this book on the cosmos, written for laypeople like us. It'll complement your wonder for space with its vastness and mystery. #100books1year
