In the Beginning –
there
was
no
Beginning
Something
was already
there.
It was not the Beginning
but the continuation
of a pre-existence
“Big Bang”
does not
compute.
The sums
for that first instant
run to infinity –
A mathematical term for
“I don’t know!”
But our universe,
now huge,
was
once
small;
A window about to open;
A bud about to burst;
A seed about to germinate.
But –
It was not the Beginning.
Before that seed moment there was
an Energy
an Intention
a Will to Be
Let’s call it
“I AM.”

An ordinary bloke. More than that - an ordinary Christian bloke.
That counts. It means that I live in hope. Not the wishful-thinking kind of hope, but an active hope built on faith and fueled by experience. Becoming old just takes time but, my years have been full of challenges overcome, joys experienced, trials that became valuable lessons, and constant contact with God. When I was young I had a future; now I'm older, I have a past; but I still have a future to look forward to, and there's no end to it.
My career is now in the past. I was once a member of a nationally known Christian rock group and my music hasn't quite gone away (I still play acoustic guitar) but it's no longer at the core of my life. Writing and prayer are now my main occupations - and being a grandfather. The primary passions that are reflected in my writing are Church, Bible, and Prayer.
