jacob and laban

finished my sermon on the part in genesis when jacob wants to leave laban. laban tries to persuade him to stay - jacob asks to have his own flocks - laban agrees and jacob prospers.

this whole jacob narrative is quite fascinating - i think we forget what great, rich literature the bible is - you can be an atheist and just enjoy the stories for being great stories.

had a massage today. amy, my massage therapist is pregnant and quite excited. she said my back looked better - i've been doing all these crazy stretches that the chiropracter prescribed.

feeling a little better today about staying on in vancouver - still not total peace yet.

had erin and andrew over with their baby amelia who is very very cute - will post some pics later. adam was really acting up during dinner - i think he wanted attention.

watched capote tonight - what a great show - interesting cat, that capote.

"The true beloveds of this world are in their lover's eyes lilacs opening, ship lights, school bells, a landscape, remembered conversations, friends, a child's Sunday, lost voices, one's favorite suit, autumn and all seasons, memory, yes, it being the earth and water of existence, memory." - T.C.
