ahhhh solitude...

How I love solitude at times. I just finished reading a great book, "The Great Omission", by Dallas Willard. I highly recommend it. He's a philosophy prof at USC. He writes: "Solitude well practiced will break the power of busyness, haste, isolation, and loneliness. You will see that the world is not on your shoulders after all. You will find yourself and God in new ways. Joy and peace will begin to bubble up within you... His character will increasingly become yours."
In this new year, I'm feeling the need for some solitude, so you may not hear from me on this blog for awhile. Phone, skype or e-mail me anytime though.
Happy New Year and Merry Christmas today to those in Ukraine!
