Fear Factors…

When this posts, I will be headed to the airport. Again. If you have read this blog before you may have heard this once or twice, I am afraid of flying. Not dying, flying.

Asking for a friend…

So have you ever known someone with a very specific spiritual gift? For instance, Mercy. This girl I know, we will call her Jane, she offers mercy at nearly an inappropriate level. It shocks her. When Jeffery Dahmer was beaten to death in prison, she threw up and didn’t sleep for a week. She went…

Genetics, Phonetics & Synthetics
