If more of us valued food and
cheer and song above hoarded gold,
it would be a merrier world.

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."

Considering your recent posts regarding food, I'm wondering if you must be experiencing a healthy appetite this week.
wow... what a good picture. mr. thom is such a man's man... i love this black and white, ketchup bottle, half smile of his photo. good job annie huntington.
ps. papa, i love all these food quotes... food is really something to be grateful for, not to hoard, but to seriously see the beauty in and appriciate. i remmeber sam and i had a conversation about this a long time ago on that mercyship...
it's strictly coincidental (as far as i know).
my appetite is steadily recovering, but i can still forget to eat.
What a great photo! ...AND quote! I'm all for merry!
It was time for this person to have his moment of glory on Fingerpost!! Any town with a few men like Thom are in good hands. So many quotes, mostly funny, could have been put with this photo.
good marriage of quote and picture.
i believe in cheer and song and food so much more than gold.
made me laugh kyr!
awesome.
Judging by the string of comments, I think Mr. Thom is well loved. The same quote without this certain picture would not have garnered so many heartfelt thoughts.
Oh feetofclay, you have no idea how well-loved this man is:)
Dame, I love that you used this photo and it is a great quote along with it:)
