How Has Abandoning Christianity Affected Your Family? Bruce Gerencser recently blogged about what life has been like for him, his wife and their six children since he de-converted from Christianity. It is one of my all-time favourite posts from his website.
The Idea Incubator – Work While You Sleep. This is a short video about brainstorming new ideas and solving business and personal problems while you sleep. I haven’t formed an opinion of this technique yet but I am intrigued by the concept of it.
Daodejing – Other Voices, Verse 78. Here’s a short quote from this blog post. It snagged my attention immediately:
Water doesn’t demand the rock gets out of its way, but it eventually wears it down or finds another route. If you find the essence of who you really are and comfortably follow that course, you’ll end up where you should be. Just be patient. With yourself and with others.
Radiance. A poem about possibilities.

Oh, I do love links! This will be a fun thing to look forward to in your posts!
I’ve told you I’m reading Rachel DuPre journal. I can hardly put it down, but I’m trying to make it last. I realize it’s a work of fiction, but it does give you a good feel of what it was like during that time in history…and I like that! Anthony Bourdain’s new book Medium Raw is chomping at the bit to be read!!
I’m so glad that you like that book. I wasn’t sure if the subject matter would be too dark for your tastes.

I love the poem Radiance and really, really like the quote you posted. It really speaks to my heart! Wonderful…thanks for sharing it!
You’re welcome! Lacy is one of my favourite poets. (And I’d say that even if she wasn’t a friend.)
