12:19 Robes

I think today's Advent word should be Robe, not Robes.

Wait till I put on my robe.

It'll be my blue bathrobe of terry cloth, of course.

Oh yes! Oh yes!

Robe of white? 

I guess that would be my body before I put on my bathrobe.

If my body were really white, that is!

11-30 Again

So, it's Advent again! Yo vengo. Tu vienes. El/Ella/Usted venie. Nosotros/Nosotras venimos. Vosotros/Vosotras venis. Ellos/Ellas/Ustedes vienen. As usual, the males come first. So, come along now! But it's not the Second Coming yet--or is it? At seventy-four, I doubt if I'd have the stamina. My loom has few warp threads left. Anyway, what's the gender of the Christ [Who?] comes? Come again?

I just need to turn off my thoughts for my heart to be trusting, to feel the Comforter inside me. And especially turn off the news and stop looking at Facebook! David's reign was fraught with enemies so that he could not build a house in God's name because of all the blood he'd shed. But God spoke to him and said: Behold, a child shall be born to thee, who shall bring thee sheqet -- quietness and tranquility-- rest from all enemies round about: for their name shall be Solomon (Peace, Shalom), and I will give peace and quietness to Israel in their days. People ranting about ICE attacking Somali immigrants in Minneapolis-- many comments in favor. Shekket! Shut up!  Du, Papageno, schweige still! ( Dare I remember?-- Quiet, piggy!) OK, I'm meditating now. Blessed quietness, holy quietness...
