		<description><![CDATA[Friday, exactly two weeks ago, I stopped by my friend DJ’s store.  I was leaving town the next day for a long-awaited retreat, and wanted to check with her about some details for an upcoming event. &#160; I could have called her, but I didn’t. Because, you see, there was something in that store that [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Two weeks ago George had a loop recorder—a medical device about the size of a large thumb drive—planted in his chest.  The general idea is that this thing is going to record what’s happening to his heart during his weird fainting spells, so that the doctors can figure out what’s going on and how to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A friend of mine is a healer, the real kind that does it for free and for love.  She’s just a nice, ordinary middle-aged lady who has offered herself as a vehicle for God’s grace. Recently my friend laid hands on someone who was in a profound depression, unresponsive to treatment, waking with fear and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This summer, we’ve been beset by bears.  Everyone has a theory about what occasioned this ursine invasion—the extra deep snow, the colder and longer spring, the failure of the huckleberry crop, the movement of grizzlies down into black bear territory.  More importantly, everyone has a bear story.  There’s the bear that broke into the freezer, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[On Bonnie Raitt’s album “Souls Alike,” she sings a song called Trinkets.  It’s a strange little number about being a kid and loving a record by Louis Armstrong, a picture by Vincent van Gogh, and her wiener dog. I think Bonnie Raitt would get along great with Cynthia Bourgeault, at least the way I read [...]]]></description>

I recently spent time as a rebellion dog. Don’t ask me why—I could give you reasons galore; but the fact of the matter is [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I need a new journal.  I realized Saturday, during the middle of a workshop here at Heart’s Rest, that I was getting perilously close to the last page of the current one.  And, I admit, I was craving a new journal with thick creamy pages on which I could draw, not another lined student notebook.

		<description><![CDATA[One of the realities of rural living is that our electrical power is—shall we say—a little iffy?  As I understand it, when you live in an urban area your electricity usually comes from multiple sources and gets mixed in the grid before it hits your house.  There are redundant circuits as well as redundant protections.  When [...]]]></description>
