Prayer is not asking. It is a longing of the soul. It is daily admission of one's weakness. It is better in prayer to have a heart without words than words without a heart - Gandhi

Please pray for my brother-in-law, Brian. He became a parapalegic 15 years ago in a mountain-bike accident. Today, he was out riding quads with my nephew and he hit a ditch and flipped over the handlebars. He laid there for a while until my nephew discovered him and got help. He's in the hospital with at least a broken collarbone. They're going to do a CT scan to see if there's anything else wrong.
I hope it's just his collarabone, but you can imagine how disabling a broken collarbone is to a parapalegic. He needs all of his upper arm strength and such for transferring, etc.
This is a shot of Brian's dog Aravis. The best dog ever.
Thanks for the thoughts and prayers.

Prayer wheels at Swayambhunath in Kathmandu, Nepal.
Prayers wheels are cylindrical wheels containing scrolls that are repeatedly inscribed with mantras. By turning the prayer wheels clockwise, it is believed that the mantras inside are activated and released. The mantras are said to purify negatvity, generate compassion, remove barriers to enlightenment and bring benefit to all sentient beings.
Swayambhunath is an ancient religious architecture atop a hill in the Kathmandu Valley, west of Kathmandu city.

Dennis the Menace: Prayers & Graces
By Michael Vance
What are little boys made of? Frogs and snails and puppy dog tails. And don’t forget the sling-shot. Dennis hasn’t forgotten his since 1950.
Hank Ketcham fathered the tow-headed superstar of comic strips and books, television, movies, and hard- and paperback collections forty-three years ago. When considering Dennis’ potential for success, few must have thought he even had a prayer.
Now, Dennis The Menace has a prayer.
This collection of prayers, blessings, and table graces is Ketcham’s newest children’s book, “Dennis the Menace: Prayers & Graces”. Written for “young parents who’re looking for guidelines to start their children off in some sort of theological direction”, it explores a side of Dennis that’s made the eternal six-year-old more believable.
Be honest with yourself. Charlie Brown is just too philosophical and morally squeaky-clean. He’s really Buddha in a kid suit. And this new kid on the comic strip block, Calvin, is a bundle of raw nerves just waiting to explode. But Dennis is unrelenting enthusiasm that translates into unintentional mayhap as he explores life.
Neither devil nor angel, Dennis the Menace is EveryBoy. It is the secret of his world-wide popularity.
This comic disguised as a children’s book is a collection of Dennis’ cartoons interspersed with short devotions for young children. It’s the sort of book parents and grandparents read to kids snuggled on their laps just before bed. And it is wonderful.
There are often deep philosophical undertones to Dennis’ simple observations. Charlie doesn’t hold a copyright on philosophy, after all. They bring a stillness to adult hearts.
Dennis throws a ball straight up. He catches the ball as it falls back. Dennis is playing catch with God. There is no better definition of Faith.
Dennis prays, “God, we thank you for this food, for rest and home and all things good; for wind and rain and sun above; but most of all for those we love”.
We add: that includes Dennis.
“Dennis the Menace: Prayers & Graces”/64 pages, $5.99, John Knox Press/available in books stores.
There are 31 people in this picture. Some look proud, some pious, some content and others placid. None look happy. Why is that?
Well, maybe the gray haired lady standing just behind the twins, holding a book and a child might have just a hint of a grin...
Some body took a knife to it too. I could probably have repaired the slash but somehow it is part of the photo now.

A wall of prayer wheels goes all around the town. As they turn, the wheels spin out "Om mane padme on".

Three nuns at prayer in the Mezquita (one for each ray of light) - bizarrely they were moved on. Clearly can't be having any praying in a Cathedral?
