Monday 25 May 2009 - Freedom Is Not Free
Thoughts on learning, living, falling, and forgiving at home with my 7 children.
"I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect has intended us to forgo their use."
~Galileo Galilei

Composer:"And this our life . . .
Finds tongues in trees, books in the running brooks,
Sermons in stones, and good in every thing."
~William Shakespeare: As You Like It, II, 1
Morning Time
Psalm 139
"A man should hear a little music,
read a little poetry,
and see a fine picture every day of his life,
in order that worldly cares may not obliterate
the sense of the beautiful which God
has implanted in the human soul."
~Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counselors, and the most patient of teachers.
