God Does Play Dice!

Was Adolft Hitler evil? What about Atilla the Hun? And Robespierre? Moving on now, was Gandhi a great person? Was Dalai Lama? And Albert Schweitzer, was he great too? My guess is, your answer was a resounding 'Yes!' to all the above questions. Which leads us nicely to the topic of contention today, what makes a person a 'bad' and what makes them 'good'?

A Winter Dawn

A Cold winter's evening,
Bright birds chirping,
Golden leaves rustling
conspicuous in their absence.

Father, Mother and newborn.
In rags more hole than whole.
Shuffle along in a land forn.
Seek shelter of roof, warmth of coal.

An Anchor

When I realise that a storm is brewing,
And that the earthly vessel is going
to be smithereens soon,
I think of you, an anchor,
And I realise,
this too shall pass.
