Sadly, many continue down this path, a perpetual pursuit that never brings fulfillment - until one sees the truth that was before them the whole time, the truth in the Holy Bible. Good stuff, Cork.

Cork, a beautiful and haunting poem...

"For the gloom in one face,

Only shows a more difficult road.

While a gleam in the eyes of another,

Has been lighted by harmony’s path."

If that is not the human condition, I do not know what is.

I attended U of Oregon back in 1972-1973 (failed utterly, unfortunately...) and also periodic classes at LCC. Eugene is an interesting town, pure college town and I had quite the adventures there, still a Prodigal apart from Christ back then. Thank GOD for His mercy over us all, as we stumble in His direction. Thank you for your heartfelt writing, Cork! I will soon check out your piece on retirement and the "sweet spot". Blessings, Wendy
