Idolatry Today

Victoria    4:32 PM    No comments
I've been reading the major prophets for the last two months and one thing I keep coming across is the idea that Israel has forsaken G-d for the idols of the other nations. It would be so easy to glance over those verses, to ignore them. This is the twenty-first century. We don't have idols anymore. (source) Our...

There are a bunch of pictures clogging up my desktop so what better place to dump them than my blog? (I took this screenshot of my stats the other day. It amused me how everything was multiples of three.)  ("Good morning world" in Gallifreyan. Source got lost in the shuffle. Sorry.)  Screenshot...

I've been fairly stressed out the last day or two thanks to some nagging health problems (minor but irritating) and tonight was a rough bedtime shift. So tonight, I'm going to do some posies.

This morning, before my alarms went off, housekeeping knocked and because I was still asleep, it took me a few moments to respond and alert them to my presence. No I do not need you to clean. Of course, I couldn't go back to sleep so...

On the one hand, I’m excited to go back home. I’m just so tired. I love my girls and Kathrin is amazing. I could not ask for a better host mom. (Daniel’s been gone a lot this month and he works a looooot so though I don’t have a problem with him, I don’t know him half as well as I know Kathrin or the...

Belgium: The First 36 Hours

Victoria    6:22 PM    No comments
If anyone tells you traveling is easy, I would like you to point them to this post. Even though it is not the hell of all experiences, it was a typical excursion I think and that just makes it clear that getting from Point A to Point B does not always go smoothly. Because my host dad is in Antwerp...
