"Salt is good for seasoning.  But if it loses its flavor, how do you make it salty again? You must have the qualities of salt among yourselves and live in peace with each other."



Quote: When you feel irritable force yourself to do a kind act; it will let Love into your consciousness, and that means peace. (p.143)

Did Louise the Cat Photo Bomb Me Mary Katherine May

Mary Katherine May and Louise

Did Louise Photo Bomb Me?

       I met Louise this past weekend while in Des Moines, Iowa. She talks all the time, likes to know everything that is happening in her domestic domain. It didn't take long for me to love Louise, and over three days she cautiously reciprocated with affection. On the morning of day four, as I was getting ready to leave for home, Louise sat in my lap and that was very nice.

About photo bombing: I am new to this term. Having heard it many times, just now I looked it up. Though it isn't so, it appears that Louise photo bombed me.  

So, there you have it. As with phone text and google searches, another term has become both a noun and a verb.

Who Are the Christian Extremists by Mary Katherine May

       I just now heard it again on the news. A current issue has new commentators calling those who support the issue named as Christian extremists. 

There is only one conclusion: People who live their Christian faith 24 hours a day, 7 days a week as best they can in a Godly way, using the Bible as their guide, are extremists. 

I guess because we don't turn our faith off and on depending on where we are. Do atheists stop being atheists when in public? Do terrorists stop being terrorists when they go home at night.

Christians, however, are not supposed to demonstrate any evidence of their faith outside of church and home. SO. I am a Christian extremist, and in this case it is a very good thing.
