Brown stuff into whirling blades

A friend calls me last night and tells me his wife is walking out — she doesn’t want “to be married anymore.”

“She says she still loves me and doesn’t want to hurt me…”

Excuse me?

This is life. And it sucks.

It is in these moments that we discover who we really are. Sometimes that is not a nice discovery.

Even in the face of “brown stuff” like this, or more correct, because of “brown stuff” like this, the words of the Chosen One are powerful: I came so they can have real and eternal life, more and better life than they ever dreamed of.
