I am grateful to be in church on Sunday’s but I also know that the church has not always been kind to people of color and others on the fringes.

With that being said

I do believe there needs to be a wall between church and state. The nation’s founders (Washington, Jefferson, and Franklin et. al) were on to something from the start.

Inspiration comes from many sources and when you are paying attention that stuff sticks with you. Then there are times when it doesn’t and then you find yourself troubled because you know what was said was good stuff. Especially at church when you know the sermon will be good and you don’t remember what your priest said that afternoon. I need to slow down and let things marinate in my mind and let it stay around awhile. Remembering stuff is good. I need to do that more often.

Spinning some Peter Frampton from the iconic “Frampton Comes Alive” this Saturday afternoon. The record is a gift from my Mrs.

This is my pin collection featuring different parts of my personality and interests. I have church, school and special interest pins I have gathered from over the years. My Mrs. got me this cool box with a glass lid to keep these treasures together.
