You've had fun there! I'd never heard of it, and on looking up one of the explanations eventually realised you sort-of had the internal rhyme aswell.
Seems such an odd word, as 'gwawd' means now usually 'scorn' or 'satire' and yet,...

I like this very much, too. I remember the word 'phototropism' from biology experiments on plants growing towards the light, but hadn't though of 'heliotropism' indicating turning towards the sun. And so I hadn't realised that is where the name...

Very credible situation with his Dad. Interesting how it comes out here the real concern his mother does have for him, and his awareness of that, though their communication together is difficult. In some ways his special phobias/worries seem to...

Posted on Fri, 12 Feb 2016
Thought-provoking, Jean, and I can empathize with much that is on your mind. As a family, when I was growing up we didn't kiss, hug, or say 'I love you' much, but I think we were at ease with each other and had a warmth of expression in greeting...

Trying to see where you're coming from in this, PT. It's because of the suffering, death, sin, that God is doing something. I know we would like him to sort it all out at ths moment, but just like the prophecies concerning his first...
