We could never learn
to be brave and patient,
if there were only joy
in the 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."

apparently god wants us to learn that stuff before he floods the earth with pure joy.
And isn't it great to know we are brave and patient? We wouldn't know it if we were never tried.
