spring rain.
this could most possibly be a ridiculous notion, but it’s been on my mind, so i thought i’d share:
yesterday, as i was driving to metanoia, i hit a small burst of rain. you know those spring rains that come & go fast? i lived in myrtle beach as a student missionary during the summer after my junior year of high school and i remember how incredibly bipolar the weather seemed. ...
fragile.
more & more i am becoming aware that childhood is a precious thing. precious & fragile.
i had lunch with one of my little second grade mentees today. we somehow ended up on the topic of parents, and she started telling me about her father being in “trouble” and as she told the story, i remembered reading about in the post & courier (the charleston newspaper) and telling...

As I was lying in bed last night, trying to fall asleep, I found myself focused on some memories of the past that at some level haunt me… ...
"Carbon Ribs" John Mark McMillan
A thousand miles of pain I’m sure Led you to the threshold Of my hearts screen door To tell me what it is I’m dying for Gravity comes Like a cold cold Rain To lead me to the rope again But someone is standing in my place Cause I’m a dead man now With a ghost who lives Within the confines of These carbon ribs And one day when I’m free I will sit The cripple at...
