Hello!

Welcome to my blog... a place where I share my thoughts and observations of life and this crazy, wonderful world. I write my two cents about how I see things, but I would love to hear your comments and feedback. This could be a safe place for constructive dialogue and friendly discussion. I've always loved Thomas Jefferson's quote, which graces Clark Hall at my alma mater: "Here we are not afraid to follow truth wherever it may lead, nor to tolerate any error so long as reason is left free to combat it." So "come now, let us reason together" (Isaiah 1:18).

World Malaria Day

This Friday, April 25 is World Malaria Day (in case you didn't know). Malaria is a preventable and treatable disease that is caused by a tiny parasite and is spread by infected mosquitoes. It claims more than 1 million lives each year, mostly in Africa where there is a lack of education, mosquito nets, and access to treatment. Every 30 seconds a child dies of malaria, a preventable and treatable disease. We can make a difference. Please go to www.worldvision.org or www.compassion.com for more information on how you can help. Thanks!
