......it's a mystery
My favorite line from "Shakespeare in Love"... here is poor old William ... he has stuff going wrong all the time and this little old guy keeps telling him kinda "not to worry"... 'cause it will all work out... and Willy is screaming "but how!" ... and the little old guy's reply... "I don't know... it's a mystery".... you know something... that little old guy has the handle on what's going on....
a plethora of minutiae.... hmmmm
Only my friend Jeff could pull one like this on me.... we talk pretty much every day or two...either face to face or on the phone... what a great way to live... same thing with my friend Bodie... it's called "relationship"... :)
The only ones I spend more time talking to are Ellen and the Lord.... relationships take time... conversations... two way communication... no short cuts... anything else is "let's pretend"....

Is it really that long?
Ten days?... Is it really that long since I last shared some thoughts here? Not that I haven't been thinking about a zillion things... that's what Musers do... they Muse about things... all the time... :)
It really has been ten days since I wrote this....

Having said all that yesterday about wanting to be another Caleb... here is the rest of the story. I mean... the Caleb thing with me was not a new thing... been talking about this for a couple years... what was new was this great week of exercise... I felt young again... renewed vigor... renewed strength.., so it got me going again about Caleb.
Caleb
On and off over the past year, I have been asking the Lord to "make me another of His Caleb's"... it was especially vivid for me last week when I had a great week full of incredible daily exercise... I was feeling ready to keep on innkeeping for another 10 years... no problem here old fella... :)
1874 was a long time ago....
Our friend Martha commented on Facebook about a little book she had read that really challenged her. This is what she said:
...that hook thing?
It started long before I ever knew anything about it... that hook thing. Actually... it is there in all of us... part of our original equipment... way back when Eve swallowed the first hook back there in the Garden... just eat from that tree and you will be just like God...if you think God can do great things...
