Dialogue in the Darkness

"What would you do boss?" said the minion. "Convince them our government system is superior to their way," replied  the "bête noire (the black beast)." "You mean after two hundred years of following the le dieu d'origine éternelle (the god of eternal origin) they will now, out of the blue, chose to become imprisoned and …

Mundane Thoughts

I've given up the sublunary world of Facebook! While I do enjoy keeping up with old friends and seeing photos of babies, food, and events, it is also important for me to think and encourage others!

The Great Something

Well, that's really cool, you believe in a higher power! What kind of a higher power?

How do you love?
