as seen recently on facebook:

Patti often must remind me that's "it's time for you to visit Thomas 'a Kempis"! I guess I sense it myself this time, facebook has become to much a distraction, time to immerse in The Imitation of Christ and God's Word so interwined there, especially the humility of the living Word, even Christ Jesus. Sometimes I think it would just be easier to "disappear" into grandfatherhood, to become a "hermit" of sorts there? So, goodbye for now, I'm sure I'll be back, (to many's dismay). :-)
