THAT QUESTION

DAYS

What are days for?

Days are where we live.

They come, they wake us

Time and time over.

They are to be happy in:

Where can we live but days?



Ah, solving that question

Brings the priest and the doctor

In their long coats

Running over the fields

Philip Larkin

I like the name of your blog :)

Have you heard of the Mount Hermon writers conference?

Thanks Brandon,
and no I haven't heard of the Mount Hermon writers conference. Tell me more,
Gerry

It's a big Christian writers conference in Northern California. I haven't been but I have a friend who has gone several times and really enjoys it. I saw you had "writing" under your interests, so I thought your blog name might have been inspired from that conference.

Nah, inspired by Psalm 133..."how good and pleasant it is when brothers live together in unity... It is like the dew of Hermon descending upon the mountains of Zion..."

Sounds like you should plan a trip to the States Gerry. I'm sure you'd really enjoy that conference.
