A lovely three-some of women stopped by this afternoon. FROM WISCONSIN. Some mumbo about how terrible the last days are. (Hmm... that doesn't take a brain surgeon to figure out...) and if I would take one of their Organization's booklets "What does the Bible Really Say?"

No thanks. I have a firm understanding of what it says. I have enough ( Read more... )

How do you know what love is if you've never seen it before? How do you know what love is if you've only been lonely? If you only want to fit in... if you only want someone to tell you they care?
