I Ponder A Vermonter (short quips suitable for future expansion) When someone has a good singing voice, they are often said to have the voice of an angel. But is that a compliment? Angels usually had to say fear not, and their voice probably more like a brassy trumpet of God than something musical.
Author: Sir Rhodri
Creational and relational type Renaissance man (writer, singer, thinker) holding to C.S Lewis's credo that if you follow truth originality takes care of itself, (anyway, originality is so yesterday, anyway.) That I have my wonderful wife Jasini is proof enough for me that life isn't fair. If it was fair I wouldn't have her, and instead she is my most faithful example that I am blessed beyond measure. My two adult children are the same unmerited blessing to me. We should all be thankful life is not fair but blessed.

What Type of Limits for God
When people complain that evolution is necessary, that God didn't create by 6 days but by eons of years, I think they are confused. They are limiting God. Yes, I believe God has limited Himself, but we disagree on how. Our opinions are categorically different. God has His three Omnis: Potent, Scient and Present. The … Continue reading What Type of Limits for God
Throw-away culture
Just because someone recycles what others throw away does not mean that they are thus careful about the use and care of used items. Someone staying with us is very good at dumpster diving and curb surfing for items he trades to others for cash and his other necessities. But that doesn't mean that the … Continue reading Throw-away culture

At The Rainbow is on the uphill side of the shared driveway culvert, and I was told by Charles that whenever the pipe gets blocked it is our fault because the leaves came … Continue reading ‘Not My Trash’ — and ‘Not My Trash’

Why make so much fuss …
Christmas 2022 was another lean one at our house. No income, no Christmas gift budget, so I got creative. Jasini and I got gifts for each other from our SNAP funds. We looked throughout the store to find food items we could gift to others and each other. For Jasini and I, our gift was … Continue reading Why make so much fuss …
