a cold snowy Monday in the upper Midwest
a cold snowy Monday in the upper Midwest ... the intelligence organization Debka – independent? an Israeli front? a false flag operation? your guess is as good as anybody’s – reports that tomorrow a major attack is due (if true to a lag time of 53 days between video tapes and attacks), that terror attacks against three Israeli consulates in the United States are in the works, and that the details of the recent attack on Jedda show good reconnaissance and likely infiltration, promising more death and destruction in the future ...
on the other hand, a toddler at the coffee shop this morning climbed up on the window ledge and scuttled back and forth making happy noises, a wide smile on his round face. His parents periodically got up to monitor his explorations. ...
the yin yang of a week that will culminate in Christmas, either snowy and white or bloody and red ...
I still want to believe that we have a vote ... for innocence and new life and the simplicity of a family having coffee in the morning ... or for chaos ...
faith is ultimately a decision that the universe is meaningful rather than meaningless ... the universe can not exist half meaningful, half meaningless ... it is either all meaningful or all meaningless ...
and our minds seem to have evolved to ask questions we can never answer ...
