FAITH
I pulled the following thoughts on "faith," written by Barbara Brown Taylor from over at Irenic Thoughts. Does this work for you?

"[Faith] is not a well-fluffed nest, or a well-defended castle high on a hill. It is more like a rope bridge over a scenic gorge, sturdy but swinging back and forth, with plenty of light and plenty of air but precious little to hang on to except the stories you have heard…All you have to do is believe in the bridge more than you believe in the gorge…"

Works for me. :-)

And what's with the new pic? That's way too funny. (Now, as a photographer I need to tell you that your white balance is ALL wrong and you've blown the highlights in the upper left corner.) But, otherwise, I like it!

Heehee. I do need a new pic. That one is a self portrait from my cell phone.
