The blogosphere is inundated with the political news of the last two days. But I'm not joining the fray. Instead, if you've ever thought about rescuing or adopting a pet, now might be a great time to get started. If you rescue or adopt many local organizations require applications so leave yourself ample time to complete the process. Hurricane Gustav may have been an excuse for some people to leave their pets behind for good (which I can't fathom, but I know it happens). There are many wonderful animals waiting for loving homes. If you start now, you might just be able to complete any house-training and transitioning by wintertime so that you and your new friend can enjoy snuggling up in front of a cozy fireplace. Contact your local ASPCA or local animal shelters or rescue shelters to find out more. Or visit http://www.theanimalrescuesite.com/ or http://www.aspca.org/site/PageServer Baxter a rescued pup, mixed breed.
Making sense of pop-culture for ourselves and helping our children navigate through it seems an overwhelming task. Finding the sacred amid the secular seems impossible at times and overwhelming all the time. But what does the world look like through the lens of the Judeo-Christian faith? And what voices can help us speak and live the Truth?
May you find that the ground you walk on is sacred. Take off your shoes and stay awhile.
