Boots too small?

King of the snow cave (carved by a rivulet, between his feet)

What I'd like to draw your attention to here is not the snow cave, although standing triumphantly on its thin arched roof was the purpose of the photo.  Rather the boots.

Wonderful, comfortable, hiking boots

It's the boots that will be outgrown by next summer.

I was thinking today how with kids it's easy to know what no longer fits.  Wrists hang out of sleeves, pant cuffs creep upward, the shoes are too tight, and it's obvious.

Somewhere into adulthood we we start accumulating clothes that used to be passed along to friends, relatives, or the local thrift store.  Closets gradually begin to bulge, not so subtly demanding a sorting.

It isn't all that different with our thinking.  As kids grow and learn, they discard outgrown thinking -- tooth fairies and monsters under the bed, and cute

Where do we go from here?

Hello good friends,

Someone kindly called to find out if everything is all right.  It is indeed.  If anybody's checking this blog, you certainly deserve to be brought up to date, so here's what's been going on.

Energies formerly expended on this blog have been rechanneled into the new group forming in Chicago, the Christian Science Fellowship - Metro Chicago.

Who are we?  We love everything about Christian Science; we're faithful to the Church Manual and to The Mother Church.  We also believe that Christian Science is relevant today and a vital gift to the world we live in.  Also that some of our most cherished traditions have blinded us to the great possibilities of living Christian Science in a new way.

If this sounds interesting to you, check out our blog.  FAQs can be a good place to start.  You can even add a comment to any blog post you read.  We'd love to hear from you.   CSFellowship blog

I was talking to a man the other day whose parting words were not, "Have a good day!"  Rather he said, "Make this a good day!"  Implying that having a good day is a choice we make.  I like that. 

So, hope to see you on our blog or FB.  Meanwhile, make this a great day!
