life story



a child is shot out of the womb, like a cannon - aimed straight for the grave. Note waving baby as he or she sails over the chasm of life - where all things made and done sink. Note also waving skeleton. That's the message of Ecclesiastes: we're born, we breed and then we die. That's all God, evolution, and our DNA require. Another set of mutations in an infinite calculation for the next development. Enjoy what you have and what you can create. It's all over quick. Too quick to sweat comparisons with others; too quick to waste time being angry or jealous; too quick to dismiss others. We all need each other's help and kindness.The world desperately needs grace not punishment.
