"One can only face in others what one can face in oneself. On this confrontation depends the measure of our wisdom and compassion"
James Baldwin
"Wisdom is ofen nearer when we stoop than when we soar."

Kindness is more important than wisdom, and the recognition of this is the beginning of wisdom.” – Theodore Isaac Rubin

Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit.
Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.
At dawn in Angkor Wat, while others were having breakfast, I captured this moment of peace and enlightenment. Following the mantra of professional photographers—"while 'others sleep or dine, I shoot''. I managed to capture the natural sun's rays, illuminating this monk.

So I spent the day running around with my grandpa today while Chucho slept in. He had a doctor's appointment to fix BOTH of the hearing aids he "accidentally" broke weeks ago. Then it was off to breakfast for a senior meal - he loves those discounts. Then he wanted to get parts for his weed eater, at 2 different stores. Then it was across town to get some tomato plants to replace a few that he doesn't feel are performing good enough, and then he needed to get a card for a wedding, so I got to read to him and most of the store half an isle of cards...and he settled for "one that just holds money - who cares what it says. THEY won't"... Then after I asked if we were finished and ready to head home, and he says yes, Chucho wakes up and calls, saying he's hungry and could I bring some Mcnuggets. I say sure and pick some up figuring its our last stop before home. While at the drive thru he remembers he wants some beer for tonight, so it was off to the liquor store for supplies. That was the one thing that wasn't an ordeal. He knew right where the specials were. Then he had to go to the ATM to get the money for the card. I helped him push the buttons while he loud whispered to me the code on that "damn ATM that nobody can see" He was right. Even I had a hard time reading that faded display. Then it was back to Loma...and halfway there he panics saying that he left his glasses on the ATM because he could read better without them, but he needs them for tv... He pats down his body and says we have to go back... We go all the way back, he gets out of the car and stands up to go to the ATM and feels them in his pocket.... So we get back home and have a beer for our half hour day that turned into the whole day and I give Chucho his now cold nuggets... So Grandpa wants to see the pics we took at the Monument. He sees this pic and says, "If you want to live as long as me, you don't do pictures like this" and shut the laptop.
And I do :)
I write this with a heavy heart. The last couple of years have found me with a progressively debilitating spinal column and joint problems. If it were just me, I would never ask, but I have 2 young daughters that look to me for support, so I have to swallow my pride...

If your conscience is too easily wounded, don't violate it. To violate even a weak conscience is to train yourself to override conviction, and that will lead to overriding true conviction about real sin. Moreover, violating the conscience is a sin in itself (Romans 14:23), bringing legitimate guilt for a real offense against God. So, respond to your conscience, even if it’s weak, and then continue to inform your conscience with God’s Word so it can begin to function with reliable data. - John MacArthur
