Today celebrates 21 years of marriage for Me and Betsy. We have reached the age of majority. So today will be a panorama of that growth to majority.

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.

The vacation week meant I hit all my points target on my MisFit, but didn't do any running, swimming, or cycling. This past week I didn't manage to get any swimming or running in either. I cycled enough to … Continue reading Fitness Update: decreasing diversity

(Part of a series singing through the hymnbook I grew up with: Great Hymns of the Faith) 1 When I survey the wondrous cross On which the Prince of glory died, My richest gain I count but loss, And pour contempt on all my pride. 2 Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast, Save in … Continue reading #118: When I Survey the Wondrous Cross
The Evils of a Lack of Indifference…

How much larger your life would be if your self could become smaller in it; if you could really look at other men with common curiosity and pleasure; if you could see them walking as they are … Continue reading The Evils of a Lack of Indifference…
A Blast of the Past #61: The Shaved Look
2005 was also the first time I tried the shaved head look. It was a one-time one-day thing this first time, but I went from the long hair to the no hair look. The above pictures give a sort of serial of the shave process:
An hour of fame …
When I got home from work today, and began my usual web browsing update, I had a surprise in store for me: My WordPress blog had scored the highest daily views of its life: 385 from 85 visitors. I know many people would be disappointed to have that many views in a day. Me, I'm … Continue reading An hour of fame …
