simple
4In character, in manner, in style, in all things the supreme excellence is simplicity.
-Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

The man behind the curtain
- Damien
- I like words, images, graphic design, well-turned phrases, doodling, humor and profundity. These are found in every quarter and I'm always on the hunt. I was rescued (in November, 1974) from guilt and a stubborn irrational belief in an impersonal chance universe (with the accompanying hopelessness). I'm now convinced that nothing is more obvious or worthy of our attention than our Creator and the one true ancient path. Only Jesus has the words of everlasting life. Like John Newton "I once was lost but now am found, was blind but now I see."

The Longfellow recipe to Fingerpost's charm: humour, wit, profundity, controversy all summed up in pithy sentence-length presentations. If you can't say it in one breath, I don't suppose it's worth saying at all...
Another thought of the day: Fingerpost is better than a daily calendar because I can't cheat and look ahead. Anticipation is prolonged, and hence rewarded.
Fingerpost has become routine of the sort that never grows old, like coffee and checking the mail.
Sarah, that has to be the kindest and most encouraging input I've ever received regarding Fingerpost. Thanks for making my day.
