Had it over the weekend; the once every ten years booster for Tetanus, Diphtheria, Pertussis, “Tdap”, they call it. A little unexpected, aches and pains, knocked a little off kilter. Whatever, I believe in the science and medical conventional wisdom of vaccines and boosters. Get the flu shot every year, maybe since college. Early on, …

“I’m Vaccinated”
Not sure who scribbled this one together, but it’s gone viral, and more important, it’s GOOD. “I'm vaccinated and, no, I don't know what's in it - neither this vaccine, the ones I had as a child, nor in the Big Mac, or in hot dogs, or in other treatments…whether it's for cancer, AIDS, the …

Through the last year, the last fifty-four, leaning heavy on God's presence, the idea, the support, the release. Talk to God, it's a healing, freeing, release. Release from the bondage of worry, …

I might have guessed this was true. Then I heard this interview with journalist Amanda Mull, from The Atlantic, who's documented the effects of this Pandemic Time on the social fabric of our lives.
