A to Z Is Off...and So Am I....

I have been very sick for the last two and a half weeks, and now I am fighting strep (I think)! Not sure if I will be able to participate in A to Z, but I'm not ready to throw in the towel just yet. Please allow me a slow start, and I promise I will visit my visitors back, even if it takes a day or two. Good luck, and have fun, everyone!! I'll try for a more substantial post tomorrow.

    Strep? Then I'd say A is for Antibiotics.

A: Alive!

Image
Although Easter was yesterday , all that talk about resurrection gets me thinking about what it means to be alive. Lots of people have lots of different opinions on this – hence all the debates on abortion, life support, euthanasia, etc. Perhaps one of the things “being alive” means is that you get to have an opinion. And you get to learn how to live side-by-side on this great big planet with other people’s opinions, too. Love, in my opinion, is one of the more important aspects of being alive. Sure, a person can for one reason or another cut off all his or her relationships and still breathe, and walk around, and “exist”…but that reminds me more of someone on a ventilator than someone who has a strong pulse and a reason to build his or her strength again to a point of thriving. Relationships…compassion…we thrive on love both as an experience and as an activity. Inventiveness…creativity…is another special aspect of being alive. I think each person brings his or her own nuance to ...

"All this is flashy rhetoric about loving you. I never had a selfless thought since I was born. I am mercenary and self-seeking through and through; I want God, you, all friends, merely to serve my turn.   "Peace, reassurance, pleasure, are the goals I seek, I cannot crawl one inch outside my proper skin; I talk of love – a scholar’s parrot may talk Greek – But, self-imprisoned, always end where I begin." I have begun to awaken to the wider world of which I am a part. I have begun to realize that the crux of all things meaningful is inherently connected to a solidarity with the rest of humanity. We are indeed all in this together. Is humanity broken? Yes, I believe it is. Is there a solution? Yes; in Christ, I believe there is. But the solution has little to do with good works and nothing to do with formal religion. As much as I grow in my rhetoric of love and social justice, the fact remains that I am still a self-obsessed person in a world of sel...

Alex J. Cavanaugh is hosting the Top 10 Movie Countdown Blogfest  today. I am trying to get in gear and start posting regularly before the April blog challenge, so I'm participating in some fun little blog hops between now and then! This is one of them. Some of my favorites, not necessarily in this order: 1. The Lord of the Rings   2. Braveheart   3. The Sandlot   4. Les Miserables   5. Harry Potter   6. Sister Act (1 & 2)   7. The Apostle     8. The Devil Wears Prada     9. Anne of Green Gables/Anne of Avonlea     10. The Holiday   There are, of course, others - but these came to mind, and I'm pretty sure they are my favorites! I am eager to see Jack the Giant Slayer, and also Oz. And I still haven't seen Lincoln! So my list could change here soon....
