For those of you who do not join us on Sun Morning at DF, I wanted to share one of the most profound things I have heard in a while.... something that has haunted me in the rare times I let myself be silent.

"Jesus didn't die so that we wouldn't have to die. Jesus didn't suffer so that we wouldn't have to suffer. Jesus died to teach us how to die. Jesus suffered to teach us how to suffer."

Teach me how to die.

Teach me how to suffer.

Thanks Greg for helping me ask the right questions.

Country Girl

You may think that I'm an Uptown girl, living in my uptown world, but just to prove that you are ohhh so very wrong, here I am DRIVING A TRACTOR. E-mail me for video. :) (or e-mail me and tell me how to post it, and I'll post it). All Photo rights are held by Mr. Adam Newby. And I am going to write it here so you all know, it's official- he's my boyfriend.

Who knew

Who knew I had so many fans? I am sure that I am losing them by the second, too, because I have what another blogger compassionately called "a dead blog". Sorry. The guy I was stealing wireless from stopped paying his bill. Stupid jerk. So I don't have internet at home now. I was in and out of town this weekend, and then monday I was off, so I didn't check my e-mail for 5 days. AMAZING. So anyway. I'm not sure how to remedy this situation, but I just wanted you all out there in blooger-land to know that just because my blog may be dead...

I am not.

More to come. Later. When I can find someone else to steal from.
