Calvin’s Government

So what?

So for 7 years, I was immersed in a world that in many ways was America, yet in many ways was like an isolated island nation with vastly different customs, assumptions, and practices.

Ironically I wrote that when I was missing the folk in Western Mass, and I have re-connected with one of them not in quite the way I would have anticipated…. I had an amazing time, even though I enjoyed it in a completely different way from how I thought I might, when I thought I might enjoy it at all, which I didn’t think I really would.

When you’d scream, I’d fight away all of your fears.

When you cried, I’d wipe away all of your tears, when you’d scream, I’d fight away all of your fears. Tell me again, I want to hear who broke my faith in all these years, who lays with you at night when I’m here all alone, remembering when I was your own.

It started when dictators began amassing arsenals of mass destruction and when a bunch of murderous fanatics from the Middle East crashed four planes on American soil.

It is when the weary find peace and rest in Christ.

A complete 180 from last week and the week before, I think it has something to do with the fact I haven’t seen/talked to Gus since last Tuesday.
