{tip of my tongue}
good evening.
it has been a good day.
job no. 2 had no power & was slightly flooded due to ceiling leakage so rob & beetle cooked us eggs & bacon by flashlight...we sat around in the restaurant lobby for an hour by the fire & then went home, ice skating through the parking lot.
i've finally finished danny meyer's setting the table - the transformative power of hospitality in business.
it would be pretty easy to accomplish what he recommends.
visiting his restaurant tabla is on my list for new york in the fall. among many other things.
after work & floyd errands (i got to see my bakery peeps!) i downloaded some new music.
please go & buy the civil wars ep poison & wine. it's 3.96 on itunes, & it's brilliant.
only 4 songs so i've listened to them probably 5 times over wishing there were more.
well. i think i shall have a beer & watch the wilson episode of house.
goodnight.

{that hits me like a sound}
today's theme, as usual, is light.
So, some of his disciples said to one another, "What is this that he says to us? 'A little while, & you will not see me,' & 'again a little while, & you will see me;' & 'because I am going to the Father?'"
So they were saying "What does he mean by 'a little while?' We do not know what he is talking about."
Jesus knew they wanted to ask him so he said to them, "Is this what you are asking yourselves - what I meant by saying 'A little while & you will not see me & again, a little while & you will see me?
Truly, truly - I say to you you will weep & lament but the world will rejoice.
You will be sorrowful but your sorrow will turn into joy. When a woman is giving birth she has sorrow for her hour has come, but when she has delivered the baby, she no longer remembers the anguish for joy that a human being has been born into the world.
So also you have sorrow now, but I will see you again & your hearts will rejoice & no one will take your joy from you. In that day you will ask nothing of me. Truly, truly I say to you - whatever you ask of the Father in my name He will give it to you.

{the tip of the iceberg}
...I said grace cannot prevail until law is dead, until moralizing is out of the game. The precise phrase should be, until our fatal love affair with the law is over - until, finally & for good, our lifelong certainty that someone is keeping score has run out of steam & collapsed. As long as we leave, in our dramatizations of grace, one single hope of a moral reckoning, one possible recourse to salvation by bookkeeping, our freedom-dreading hearts will clutch it to themselves. And even if we leave none at all, we will grub for ethics that are not there rather than face the liberty to which grace calls us.
