For every minute you are angry you lose sixty seconds of happiness.

Thought Of The Day 12182023
I am a believer who thinks science, data, logic, and reason matter as much as religion. Some decisions must be made using tools that were given to men and women for operations of a lot of things. Religion has a purpose in the lives of many but it isn’t the only factor in a believer’s life. God gave us brains and a heart and when we don’t use them they can do great harm to others. Also, don’t be afraid of the future. Don’t look back because you aren’t going that way.
The Second Sunday Of Advent

Today is the third Sunday of Advent. Joy is the theme for today’s celebration. The candle is pink which is different from the other three that are purple. We all need more joy in our lives. God be with you all good people. The above picture is the screen we use at St. Peter’s Episcopal Church to produce our live stream of our services on YouTube and the Advent wreath is in the upper left picture.
Eight Days Until Xmas

Just over a week until Christmas. It’s getting close good people.
Describe A Man, Well Two Men
I am going to say two men. My father and grandfather were great people who influenced me to be who I am. Without them, I can say I wouldn’t be the geek/nerd that I am. They taught me to be a sensitive, caring, and loving man in my own way. I can say I will miss them this holiday season as they are no longer with me. They are still with me in my heart and soul.
