The Eternal City

Posted in Uncategorized, tagged , , on 30-April-2009 | Leave a Comment »

Posted in meditations on 30-April-2009 | Leave a Comment »

Sometimes I wake up in the morning and I think to myself, “what the f**k am I doing!?” I lie a few moments with the sense of dread and panic pressing down on me and then I swallow it, get myself up and start to go about my day.  Invariably the stress makes a reappearance [...]

Where did this week go? I woke this morning with the lyrics from Steve Miller running through my head this morning, “Time keeps on slippin, slippin, slippin Into the future” (Fly Like an Eagle, 1975).  Yesterday was Monday and today is Saturday.  Next thing you know, April will be over and then where will we [...]
