Echoes of the nails

                                                                       Love carries on.
                                                                   Glory is so overrated.

Determination

                                                           Determination knows no age.
                                                              Dignity knows no disgrace.
                                                           Teamwork knows no obstacle.
                                                               Wisdom knows no fear.
                                                            Youth knows no tomorrow.
                                                                 Beauty knows no limit.
.

                                                                        a thing of worth

The Builder of Our Home

This is the man who built our home. Kind of cool.

Farewell, My Dear Friends

This little girl has no shoes. The belt she wears was crafted from a shipping sack. But she has loving parents, so she is very happy. Today I will upload many pictures of my poor village. I will tell you a little about each of the people in them. I hope it makes you ponder, and love.
  God loves love. Do you?
 Wishes do come true.
 A Heavenly Hell.
 Fires perform so well.
 The blind woman who found serenity.
 Sleep little darling.
Sweet sunsets
 Mango flesh and Berean scalpels.
sweeping across the earth: Leadership voids
beams and bridges...sweet coffee color of your skin
The Sunday Report
Red Barchetta
Fish for life
Thank you, Jovit. We love you!
                                                                                not lost
                                                                     small voice ticket
Lead me to your door.

Goats Who Stare at Men

On Facebook today, I was asked who I am by Ruby Somera. She's a really sweet girl.

Here was my answer to her:

Hi Ruby!

You'll never know how happy I was to see you friend-me-back. See, I am a collector of wonderful people. Unfortunately, only about 10% of those living today are really wonderful. You are one of them. Anyway, I've discovered a way to make more than 10% get wonderful, too. It's by loving them and showing them wonderful people. As weird as this sounds, it works! This is just one facet of me.

Now you owe me one about you. Tell me what you know. And also pls tell me your #1 fav song of all. I collect those too.

Bye

PS - Our little boy is now 34 months old. He so loves to take photographs with the cell phone and also with the camera. At first it was a joke, but in the last 2 months he has entered 2 pictures into a contest, and one of them took 1st Place. He has never attended any school!
Above he took some really fine shots of a mother goat and her two kids. Below, a picture of an old woman about to gather her week's supply of sun-dried firewood.
Hope you like the stuff he creates. I am hoping he'll find a great girl like you one day. Do you have any 2 or 3 year old sisters?

A man like he will become...will need a super wife.
I'd love your sister to have first shot at him, Ruby...so you and me could be...
                                                                      an extended family.

You and Me

There's a leafless tree in Asia
Under the sun there's a homeless man
There's a forest fire in the valley
Where the story all began

What will be our last thought?
Do you think it's coming soon?
Will it be of comfort
Or the pain of a burning wound?

All we are trying to say
Is we are all we've got
You and me just cannot fail
If we never, never stop

You're an ocean full of faces
And you know that we believe
We're just a wave that drifts around you
Singing all our hopes and dreams
We look around in wonder
At the work that has been done
By the visions of Our Father
Touched by his Loving Son

All we are trying to say
Is we are all we've got
You and me just cannot fail
If we never, never stop
All we are trying to say
Is we are all we've got
You and me just cannot fail
If we never, never stop
You and me just cannot fail
If we never, ever, never, ever stop...

Promotion to Big Brother

This is the picture I snapped the minute we received word that Mama gave birth to our 2nd child. Apparently the training has made Biko fully prepared to be a Big Brother. No nervousness at all.

OTHER GREAT NEWS

Ruby Somera became friends at Facebook. She's the cutest Filipina I've stumbled across in seven years of surveying the islands. Her heart is gold. Thank you Ruby!
