dreams only scarred rememberings of lightening strikes and howling wind of squirrels and hammer heads of children s summer play all these now faded away to just an ugly old stump useless for humans but to to sit to rest to think and hurried humans hardly take the time to do such things just an ugly old stump that s all it was and old stumps carry no hopes or dreams or do they look again could it

2022 i made an error when i listed my ordination succession a few weeks ago i was ordained by earle wilson and he was ordained by william neff i had thought that neff was ordained by early pilgrim leader seth rees but upon further investigation he was actually ordained by winfred cox thus my ordination line takes a fortunate turn it was a struggle reconciling rees anyway i had taken a leap saying that he was ordained by the nazarenes when in fact he was originally recorded not ordained by the quakers and the nazarenes claim they never ordained him i find that hard to believe especially when according to historian kostlevy he participated in ordinations for the metropolitan church association a forerunner of the pilgrim holiness church anyhow deepest apologies for leading anyone
