Ramblin', when my dmother was dying, but before I had admitted to myself that we only had a day or two, a man appeared in the doorway to her room - an old friend's husband. She told me exactly who and it sounded familiar but I was only worried, not interested. She was so delighted to see him, but admitted he wasn't actually in conversation with her, or she would ask all about their family. What a mistake I made not to write down his name, ask her to tell me again how we knew the family, etc. As it was, I forgot the name in the flurry of things that had to happen after her death.
Thank you for the thoughts.
Kathryn, I hadn't seen those particular quotes. I guess a lot of articles are in the offing. Yes, how wonderful when the Church simply emulates its early self, lives the way that was intended, all working together, having roles in common. Scot McKnight's question about the early church, "WDWD ?", is one we should be happy to answer. What Did Women Do? Well then, let's do that.
The trip was long since we seemed to run into every possible road construction problem. Ah, the orange-and-white striped "state flower" along the roadside, lol. I think a lot of places have those. One errand for HRH was to take papers to be filed at another county's courthouse, a pleasant errand. Lovely plantings and architecture to admire.
In further verification of my theory that everybody talks to my husband, a fellow who walked out at a similar time waited on HRH and struck up a conversation on the way back to the parking, so happy that a judge had just dropped all charges against him. Never saw the guy before in our lives, but he had to tell someone and of course, how convenient for him that there was HRH, who is just obviously the fellow you tell ... .. By the time we drove away, HRH knew all about it. Out of earshot to hear HRH's low voice, I heard the fellow finish up with, "I know it. I know it." And on the way home, out of the blue, my husband says, "He just needs to stop drinking. I told him."
what?
