Slowing Down

Just a pre-Thanksgiving observation.

At age 90, Jerry Beavan had been a world traveler (47 round the world trips), had been a college and a seminary professor, served with the Billy Graham Association for a number of years, had been active in the American government process as a state and federal lobbyist, and as a journalist and newscaster … and after retiring, Jerry founded the American News Service.

I just hope and pray I can be as active in mind and body as Jerry was when or should I reach his age.

THOUGHT TO REMEMBER: Let us learn relax and be more silly, taking all things less seriously but perhaps our dreams and hearts.

  1. We’re in pursuit of a righteous dream,
    and we’ll take danger’s cup;
    let us build a lot of steam
    and blow the boilers up.
    Safety valves are for the weak,
    those timid tepid souls
    whose world is a puce shade of bleak,
    worthy of eye-rolls.
    Are there monsters in the night?
    I surely hope there are!
    We will give them such a fright
    that they will turn to tar.
    So onward, gentle savage folk!
    Gotta break the egg to get the yolk.

    Hello, to tell you the truth for now there is no Christmas with so much robbery on top of us and difficult to even think about Christmas. I hope justice is done and it ends as soon as possible. Hugs family Sonia Aparecida Gonçalves Of the kings. soniaaparecidagoncalvesdosreis@gmail.com
