Not evade the question, not come up with some non-answer, but truthfully and honestly answer a different question, one that helps you keep touch with the deeper or bigger or at least less tired parts of your story.<BR/>I'll carry this one with me.

It is so hard to "answer a different question" and so easy to slip into the familiar litany of lament that seems to mark our lives these days: so busy, so tired, so important that we don't have time to live, just so....<BR/><BR/>How silly, and how commonplace.

Your words bring life and hope of resurrection. Blessings to you and yours.Maureennoreply@blogger.com
