Hang on to that real tight. They don't stay little and cuddly forever ... sez the mom of teens that were babies just yesterday, I swear they were!

Nonviolence, nonresistance, and pacifism--none are smiting offenses IIRC. Mennonites can be found here:

That's why it's called faith, not logic. George Burns did a memorable rendition as well (oh God, 1977). “That’s hard to intellectualize.”

I'm glad you took time to write it before ending the first day of the new year. Your thoughts make me think of the quote from Shakespeare, A Rose by any other name, etc..., to me means, call it what you want, you know what you know. Add to that, that it isn't an either/or situation, as in either science or faith..a combo works and makes Life and Death that much more complex and miraculous. It is bright sunshiney morning here and I am off to greet the day. I hope yours is a sunny one, too. Great post, AT. I’m glad you took time to write it before ending the first day of the new year.

Too much punctuation wears you down after a while. More cuddles, I say. Here’s to a manageable year with a minimum of exclamation points or heavy, unarguable periods.

I think maybe you ought to wait a while to watch it if you haven't already seen it, though. It's about the value of personal relationships and about how all the shit they put us through is pretty well worth it.

I'm just not sure I'm capable of grasping the enormity of it all, so why bother? I figure I'm going to find out someday whether I want to or not, so why hasten the process? This sounds flippant, but such is the nature of 2-d communication such as this, occasionally...

I have his video collection on DVD, and Eternal Sunshine was one of our favorite movies. I'd say Clementine reminds me of BJ, but she really only does in style. BJ was a lot sweeter.
