7 SECONDS "4 AM in Texas"

ARCHAEOLOGICAL COVERUPS BY DAVID HATCHER CHILDRESS EGYPTIAN CAVES-GRAND ...

Learning new words--


I'm a passionate & avid reader.  Not a day goes by that I don't run into a word I am unfamiliar with.  Not just a word I don't really know, but a word I SWEAR I've never seen before.  I love it!  Look it up, put it into a sentence or two, memorize its spelling, and thoroughly become FAMILIAR with it.

Here's a word I ran into in a blog I subscribe to:  per•sev•er•ate (pərˈsɛv əˌreɪt) 
  v.i. -at•ed, -at•ing.
  to repeat a word, gesture, or act insistently or redundantly.

Video "Quaerere Deum: Documentary of Italian Monastery"

Beautiful & amazing! I truly, truly want to live in a monastery like this.  I think it's been my dream for years now.   And meditating on my life over the past seven years, I am convinced that God has been priming me for this kind of life (though I could always be wrong!)  My interest in books, music, philosophy, women (and lack of them!), etc.  Too many things are pointing to the monastic life.  Of course I may simply be thinking out loud right now.  But in all earnestness, this kind of life looks appealing and amazing to me.  The simple idea of giving up everything to live a life of solitude for the Lord, all feels so natural to me. My personal daily written journal has much more on this topic.  I am not comfortable yet revealing too much here on the interwebz.

Please watch this video if you have 45 minutes to spare from your hectic all-important life.
