"Better Together"

“A man is only as good as what he loves.” 
"A great deal of intelligence can be invested in ignorance when the need for illusion is deep."  

 Saul Bellow

I read these quotes yesterday and felt the need to tell you that I love God and I love my family.  However good that makes me I’m not sure nor does it matter.  I do know they own a part of my heart.  When they hurt I hurt, when they find joy I find joy.   One can only imagine the heart of our Father in Heaven when we elude Him.  Life is short and life is precious!

Fathers Past & Present

I know that Fathers Day has come and gone, but not so with fatherhood.  We are eternally joined and what a blessing that is in our lives. Some have passed on, others we see daily, and some are busily involved being DADS.  None are perfect, but all are loved. Even though late, I must pay tribute to the many fathers in my life . "It is a wise father who knows his child.  But maybe it's a very wise child who takes time to know his father." -Anonymous What questions I would ask if I only had moments again with both Grandfathers and my Dad!  It seems time was fleeting, then gone.  What I would give for a few more minutes.   I miss them! My Grandfather Phillips and my very young Dad The 50's were great! "Old as she was, she still missed her daddy sometimes."  Gloria Naylor Grandpa Frank with Bart and Byron, priceless! Collin, Dad and Benjamin ; ) I always said I would never mar...
