Can You Smell the Smoke?
Thanks to an email from a friend, I'm just thinking about this and a little bit of this and that.
Now do you have any smoldering thoughts?

Each friend represents a world in us, a world not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born. --Anais Nin
I don't paint things. I only paint the difference between things. Henri Matisse--
- But the other day, I looked up at the trees in the forest and realized that I dream in order to live. It’s the healthiest state of the human soul, for where there is no vision, people perish. ---Spit and Patience, 2005.
- Funny thing about momentum: the more you get, the farther and faster it takes you: the harder it gets to slow down and take a moment to really reflect on what's just happened.--Kenny Chesney, Living In Fast Forward.
Friends, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus."---Phillipians 3:13
- It's the sense of touch. In any real city, you walk, you know? You brush past people, people bump into you. In LA, nobody touches you. We're always behind this metal and glass. I think we miss that touch so much, that we crash into each other, just so we can feel something. –Crash, 2004.
Paul's Prayer: 17[For I always pray to] the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, that He may grant you a spirit of wisdom and revelation [of insight into mysteries and secrets] in the [deep and intimate] knowledge of Him, 18By having the eyes of your heart flooded with light, so that you can know and understand the hope to which He has called you, and how rich is His glorious inheritance in the saints (His set-apart ones), 19And [so that you can know and understand] what is the immeasurable and unlimited and surpassing greatness of His power in and for us who believe, as demonstrated in the working of His mighty strength, 20Which He exerted in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His [own] right hand in the heavenly [places], 21Far above all rule and authority and power and dominion and every name that is named [above every title that can be conferred], not only in this age and in this world, but also in the age and the world which are to come. 22And He has put all things under His feet and has appointed Him the universal and supreme Head of the church [a headship exercised throughout the church],(A) 23Which is His body, the fullness of Him Who fills all in all [for in that body lives the full measure of Him Who makes everything complete, and Who fills everything everywhere with Himself]. ---Ephesians 1:17-23 (Amplified Bible)
- You are guilty and you are free to go. -Exorcism of Emily Rose, 2005.
Now, with God’s help, I shall become myself. --Soren Kierkegaard
- If God were good, He would wish to make His creatures perfectly happy, and if God were almighty, He would be able to do what He wished. But the creatures are not happy. Therefore God lacks either goodness, or power, or both." This is the problem of pain, in its simplest form. The possibility of answering it depends on showing that the terms "good" and "almighty," and perhaps also the term "happy" are equivocal: for it must be admitted from the outset that if the popular meanings attached to these words are the best, or the only possible, meanings, then the argument is unanswerable. ---CS Lewis, The Problem of Pain.
- I always think about the velveteen rabbit; it is only when all the fur gets rubbed off and someone loves it, that it becomes real. Well, becoming real is sometimes a painful process. Sometimes when people see the real you, it may disappoint or disillusion them. But, that is the risk of being real.--Crouching mommy, dirty laundry
- Holes in the head, holes in the mind, holes through the transubstantiated American fabric. Prefunctory words, visions of anger and hatred, and exhaustion. But above all, there is some hope. Hope from the children of the storm, that despite the best efforts of everyone around us from every political party and vague hack publication eager to blame everyone but the storm and ourselves, we will return to that land, like the Israelites from the Babylonian captivity, singing the songs of joy they could not sing in strange lands. There's nothing else to say, really. All we can do is do what we must. ---Halcyon Dazed in Poland Sprung
- Computers are a trojan horse from the god of anti-productivity. --Nova M'gwa
And I don't want the world to see me Cause I don't think that they'd understand When everything's made to be broken I just want you to know who I am And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming Or the moment of truth in your lies When everything seems like the movies Yeah you bleed just to know your alive And I don't want the world to see me Cause I don't think that they'd understand When everything's made to be broken I just want you to know who I am --Iris-- Goo Goo Dolls
