We have come full circle
Back to where it began.
Hawk will show the way
With healing in his wings.

IN JIM'S WORDS...
When I retired to the woods of South Carolina I wanted to experience a passion similar to those who built Stonehenge - strong enough to inspire me to move mega-ton boulders halfway across England. That is to say, I retired with an agenda. “Okay God, it’s you and me. No structures No restrictions. No theology. No holds barred. Twenty-four hours a day. You are my only passion. You say you like a challenge? Bring it on!” Like Jacob of old who wrestled with God, I had one prayer on my lips: “I will not let you go until you bless me!”
Imagine my surprise when, in a totally unexpected way, God answered and did just that!
QUOTE OF THE WEEK
"The Holy Grail is forever within our grasp and always just beyond our reach. It was no accident that at the conclusion of "The Last Crusade," the hero, Indiana Jones, could only, at the end, touch the cup with his fingertips. He couldn't grasp it. It just barely eluded him. In the end, he could only possess it by letting it go. The Grail offers an elusive quest. It is glimpsed only during those times when we are, for the moment at least, pure in heart. Maybe the lesson to be learned is that life consists of the quest, the journey itself."
