If I had to pick a powerful image from the Second World War it would be the one above. American tank crews of four Sherman M4A2 tanks, heads bowed and hands clasped, with a Chaplin leading them in prayer in Northern France,1945. Quite an amazing image of battle hardened soldiers, crouching in the mud with … Continue reading The Power of Prayer During Wartime
Photo by Caio on Pexels.com Hey folks, welcome back! These past few weeks have been a blur: from the 'Freedom Convoy' in Ottawa - with protests in multiple Canadian cities and at the US/Canada borders - protesting against state forced vaccine mandates, to my house bound mental state being shaken like the Hawaii Chair, arguably … Continue reading Reading Old Journals And Looking Back
Listening to 'grace' being sung from my son’s bedroom at 7:39PM is a bit strange, especially when I know he is lying there with no food. Surrounded by construction vehicles, plastic army men, and of course Curious George, Isaac bellows out the words for my attentive ears down the hall. The song grows louder with … Continue reading The Importance of the ‘C’ Word
Holy moly! Talk about distractions these past few weeks. I’ve been finding myself seeping away into an abyss of ‘things’: TV, Video Games, iPhone, Facebook- you name it!

Whenever … Continue reading Watch Out For The Sirens: How Our Technology Might Not Be Helping Us
Tangle tangle, weave weave. I do not fear what I can’t see. Lurking lurking, waiting waiting. Ever watching - but I don’t really see. Normal normal, clear clear. They said it’s safe, so I’ll go here.

During the day he was a dynamite man at the Talc Mines, then in the evening he was a farmer, working the field till dark. My father also owns farmland that we share as … Continue reading Watch for the Weeds: What entangles your life?

Sitting here, I see Your majesty. The water shines in a brilliant blue. Oh! How beautiful! Yet, not as beautiful as You. The foam tossed waves, roll against the shore; the cliffs tall, jagged and worn. Sitting here, I think of Your goodness, and how You changed my life. Like the water, crisp and sparkling; … Continue reading Crystal Blue Shores
The wind was a westerly gust coming up from the valley, blowing against my right side. Walking along a rocky cliff, I kept a watchful eye for any branches that might break if I stepped on them, while simultaneously focusing on what lay ahead of me. Cracking a branch would be a sure way to … Continue reading “Got to get yer moose by!” Big Moose, Big Bogs and Falling in a Deep Hole.
