speaking of camels, Maria and I went shopping for living room lamps when we first moved into our house. High on a shelf I saw the top third of a pair of lamps, and I liked what I saw. As the store clerk brought them down to us we saw, lo and behold, that the bottom third was actually a camel. We bought the pair of camel lamps and affectionately named the camels "Spit" and "Sputter" because, as the mom of 5, that's pretty much what I do all day long. And that's my camel story.
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."
