The big broom of history is sweeping at us now. Is God laughing or is He crying (sorry for the pronoun, NOT sorry) . Weel, is He? Neither. His will be done. Where or how or why it ends is not for us to worry about now.
It is for us to laugh, cry, gnash teeth. And keep to His words that have been lost to so many in the cacophony of modern "progress" (confusion). Good times have always made weak men and they always will. But in the destruction that is overtaking our world, lies the seeds of rebirth. Hard times will once again make strong men. And those who Believe will always, always, always have the upper hand.
Our survival isn't just about "buying more time". Simply and solely to consume food and oxygen. It is about keeping hope and love and truth alive, that when we reach the new shores, we can land and serve those others who survive and want to restore what is good.
I went to the store and beside regular supplies, got more TP & PT for storage and goat's milk for my litter of puppies - but forgot to include some more packs of Bic lighters. Darn.
If anyone knows of a desire or need for some of the very best in breeding of Wirehaired Point Griffons, I have 4 males yet to home.
