glorycloud's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- let death seize upon them, and let them go down quick into hell It is 12:25 PM Thursday afternoon here in Western Michigan. I have lived over the years in these places in America, Virginia, Maryland, Washington D.C., Oregon, California, Texas, Mississippi, and Michigan. I was born in Oakland CA in 1952. I have lived most of my life here in Michigan. We have lived in Holland MI going on 33 years. Carol and I have been married 43 years. Our oldest child is 41 years old and our youngest is 38 years old. Our middle child is 40 years old. Carol and I are both Grandparents. I got up this morning around 6:15 AM. When I got up Carol was having morning worship. This morning I did all the usual things I do in the morning hours. Carol did leave with girlfriends around 10 o'clock AM for an overnighter up North. I noticed Carol kept saying over and over that she was going to have fun. My wife enjoys having fun. I do not recall ever having fun. I am in a state of being and not fun. Is being fun possible in this wicked dark satanic world? But my prayer is that my dear sweet wife will have fun with her girlfriends. Carol deserves to have fun after hanging around with me Mr. Doom and Gloom. I did this morning read for a couple of hours from a book titled, '"Quid Gloriaris In Malitia' Commentary On The Davidic Psalms Volume III Psalms 51-75 By Denis The Carthusian. In this commentary on the Old Testament Book of the Psalms I am in Psalm 55. This morning I did drive down to our local library to pick up some books I had set aside at the Book Nook, their used bookstore. I picked up these used books this morning so as to show folks in a video I plan to film sometime today- 'Rome: A History In Seven Sackings' Ancient Rome History by Matthew Kneale 'The Corporation That Changed The World: How The East India Company Shaped The Modern Multinational' by Nick Robins 'Cathedral' historical fiction by Ben Hopkins [Europa editions] 'The Practice of Kabbalah: Meditation In Judaism' by Steven A. Fisdel 'Song of Myself: The First and Final Editions of the Great American Poem' Walt Whitman 'The Memory Of Mankind: The Story of Libraries Since the Dawn of History' by Don Heinrich Tolzmann, Alfred Hessel & Reuben Peiss After I left the Book Nook I headed home but stopped first at Action House thrift store to look at their used books. At Action House I bought these three used books- 'The Art Of Living And Other Stories' by John Gardner 'Where Shall Wisdom Be Found?' literary studies by Harold Bloom 'Christ And The Common Life: Political Theology and the Case for Democracy' by Luke Bretherton I came home after Action House to have lunch and then to read and write till the sun goes down. Carol is gone and I am alone with my books and music. Life couldn't be any more fun (?). Last night I mainly read late into the night, 'Last Things' A Novel by Victor Serge. Well I suppose I will close to wait Time flow circle of Light. Pss.55 12:56 p.m. - 2022-09-22 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
