Saturday, December 30th...it's not every Year i memorialise too soon. But i'm getting used to late departures such as those of the Godfather of Soul, the great Republican who fell into the shadow of Richard Nixon AND the Butcher of Baghdad. [his^ was the most precipitous of ends.]  G bless 'em and preserve them, wherever they are bound. They seal up the Age...  Meanwhile, the engineer and i are Tearing up the Town, again. {such brothers shouldn't be let loose as often as we get out} Actually, we are closing out the Affairs of And6 to the best of our natural abilities. Clearing the boards as it were for the coming Miracles of AndSeven.

So~HNY Glowers! Onward & Outward...

saga

Thursday, December 21st, And6 C.E.>

Herod the Great was none so good; in fact, he was quite the treacherous Villain.  Herod the Lesser was nix besser, that Herod the Small was no good at all. Ya don't hear of many chi'dren nowadays named Herod.  Such is the price of despotic Infamy.

Joseph was descended of a King, but was himself a simple carpenter. Yet--Joseph was an established man who fell in love with Mary, a maiden Immaculately conceived...that is, the very young Mary was blesst by G to be as incorruptible as Eve before she partook of the forbidden fruit. These^ are well=establisht Mysteries. The names of these two Nazareans have travelled well thru the history of the werld. Thank goodness.

It was not an especially good Year in Judea, under the Roman occupation...but there were Angels of G And the Spirit of G on High moving throughout the land. One angel told Mary to submit to the Spirit; another advised Joseph not to set the perfect maiden aside.  And, as fate, history and the census of a certain Cæsar would have it, the betrothed & expectant couple found themselves Rooming togethre in an out=building reserved for beasts of burden on the outskirts of Joseph's home=town.  (It could have been a haus of his own relatifs, but there was no place to keep all the persons who had come to Register with the Empire.)  More=over, and most Surprising--the entire story of events came to fulfill everything wrote from Genesis thru the Prophets. Amazing!

We recount this^ epic to children because YESHUA was a child. We put a star on the tree 'cos there was a star in the sky. We give a gift to those we love AND even to those we do not know Acause we have received a great gift from the Giver of all gifts. We light candles and lights because this one Light comes to us, altho we are sometimes schtill in darkness and misery. And~whosoever we are & whatsoever we Believe, it's a story of enduring Love.

Happy holy=day 2 all Humanity...here below

RISE!

And othre beautiful things which i cannot yet fully imagine...it's just a Thing. Glow on.

Sunday, December 17, 2006...One (1) of the wonderful things which i could not imagine has happened! BabyMae has retourned to Glow=Land after a well deserved vacance.  And she tells US that our best beloved, cyber=dancing MUMSY is schtill in this frail and faulty werld. Blessings on them both as they proceed forward; i, personally, am ecstatic of the News. Comfort & Joy!{many haiku will be written of This^}

Monday, December 18th...thank the Baby J for milk=crates! We, who are in transition, make the good use of them. CAT was kind to take me on a recycle run yesterday.  With finer weathre we could not have askt for. I even had a big black bag of coloured paper, which is unusual acause i hardly ever get junk=mail & circulars! BLADE was a good helper as well, altho not as dresst up as his Mother. {we suspect that there might be one more transfer run around the Holydays, on account of there always is} Lighten!  CAPSIZER sent a coupla fotoes of Emma^  woofing down some chocolate cake. I've placed one in the GALLERY abof^, along with an ancient snap of me eating same.  Some=times you get frosting, some=times you don't. C'est la vie. *snarfle*

Thursday, December 14th, And6...

in memoriam: we have put down a good many people, this Year...maybe too many.  From Ed Bradley to Billy Styron and the great numbre of departers from the wide field of music [jazz, blues, classical, opera], they are only asleep for a time. Those are the famous ones. We are consoled for the victims of Crime or War that they will never again see the horrors which demised them.  And we pray to learn something from the surprised ones who were overtaken by Nature and her accidents...not to trade safety & preparedness for rash action.  But for those who took the laws of Life into their own hands [terrorists, school killers, politicle despots], there will be a Reckoning after this brief darkness.

Especially now, as Light is coming once again into the werld of men. Truly.

*

i am nearly caught=the=up of all my e=mail.  Which means~i could stand to have more of the bettre as i also Try to read the Glows!  Then, again, i've always been a bump & run sort of Person. {sometimes~i check a Glow and am schtruck speech=less; it happens}  i'll make a resolution for And7 to make more and better commentary. That^ and to grow a full beard that ain't scratchy! Less=the=never, i suspect that this Year will be a really good one for GLOWERS. More content, more controversy And othre beautiful things which i cannot yet fully imagine...it's just a Thing. Glow on.

*

Happy Holy=Days! Amorro will be brighter and closer to collectif incarnated redemption if WE but believe it. Be good.  ~adventalSlac~

PACE

On or about Five (5) P.M. Cape=Time Monday, Decembre 4th, another infant girl came into the Werld...making maisy a quadruple grandmother. [It boggles me]  Wyatt has a sister! Twenty-two (22) inches high [altho not standing herself yet] and all of Eight (8) pounds, three (3) ounces, i will bet she is a byoooteeefull child. Expecially if she takes after her own mother...

Thursday, December 7th, And6--the 65th anniversary of the Attack on PEARL HARBOUR.  {the current WAR of Ideals was launched by a similiar sneak attack in September And1} In about eighteen (18) days, one third of the Globe will commemorate the birth of YESHUA, the promised Salvation of His nation. The rest of the werld will observe: A Festival of Lights, the end of Ramadan, Kwanzaa, and other Winter celebrations. But, take note: it's summer in AUSTRALIA! Or nearly so...

There=fore~the great Uncle slack Proclaims a fine holyday...Of birth above death, of Light against darkness, of Sense & Surety to dispel foolishness & doubt. It's not so much a politicle/religious statement as a Hope for humanity in a troubled & troubling Epoch.

Plus+, i want both my grand=nieces to see a more beautiful Garden than i squirmed into! Pass it On with Peace...
