A Google World in the Garden of Eden: Five Family-Safe Strategies for Texting and Social Media, offers information on house rules and cyber rites of passage.

This from Dale Carnegie in How to Stop Worrying and Start Living: Time-Tested Methods for Conquering Worry (1944) p.193

The fact that I don’t understand the mysteries of prayer and religion no longer keeps me from enjoying the richer, happier life that religion brings. At long last, I realize the wisdom of Santayna’s words” “Man is not made to understand life, but to live it.”

My two cents: My faith teaches me that the only way to gain understanding is to experience life with a heart full of gratitude to God for my own intellect and free will. This is my capacity to learn how to love and be loved fearlessly, as God does. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Psalm 62:6

He only is my rock and my salvation: He is my defence; I shall not be moved.

All it takes is one mustard seed of faith to get a fresh start.
