The difference we've seen it before, we've had the warnings from history. But a runaway train is parked till you take the brakes off.

The verse has 18 words.
So in 18 words or less ...
In love, gardening, all things, we can choose to freeze or flourish regardless of the season.

I mean a PhD in education is definitely a good shout for Oncology diagnosis. Especially with a thesis called 'Student Retention at The Community College:Meeting Student's Needs'. I'd definitely be throwing my lumps and dodgy peeing habits her way.

You don't ask me where I'm going. So I don't tell you. Long ago. A quiet affair you forgot. You didn't ask.

It says 'Jesus merely looked at Peter' No meaning is given to the look, there is no 'as if to say' - In the biblical story 'Domine Quo Vadis?' Peter fleeing Rome meets Jesus going to Rome to be crucified in Peter's place. Peter returns and is crucified. It's the silence in the poem that speaks.1/2

Yeah - The whole 'most diverse Conclave in history' shtick while excluding 51% of the entire population of the whole World in all their unconclaved diversity.

They've been talking about it being the most diverse Conclave in history. So they elected an ageing white man. All the diversity they claim to be embracing is perpetually excluded in 51% of the entire human population of the entire world.

A poem on the page is not the same as a poem that you hear. The overall arch of the two stanzas encompasses both meanings. What we hold and how we feel about it are not necessarily the same. The overarching irony from this sacrament to the ministry that such as she can have. Its great.

If a canal was hit the resulting flooding in surrounding areas often industrial urban would be devastating. The canal Clyde and Union Canal through Glasgow had specially designed gates to prevent this if hit.

It has always been a lie. 'When you tell them' ... they have all the means to check. Apathy is not 'not knowing' - it's not caring.

'We didn't know' is and always was a lie.

This story is from July 2019. That doesn't change the courage and decency of the neighbours who protected this man and boy but it doesn't directly reflect what is happening now. I hope neighbours and journalists continue to help those at risk.

'We didn't know' is - and always has been - a lie.

There is a moment when you jump off a bridge or a cliff into a pool of water before Gravity takes hold again when you are absolutely free from all restraint.
