Last Sunday Derwin and I went to North Point Community Church in the Atlanta area. We heard Part One of a message called “Illusions.” The pastor, Jeff Henderson, laid out a pretty simple message on being fake. I suppose many or most of us are fake about something, that’s not a new story. I guess this one [...]

I’m sitting in church, snuggled in my husband’s chest, his arm around me, listening. We haven’t done this in so long … sat in church together and listened. We don’t get to sit together anymore.

Good writing. Keep up the good work. I just added your RSS feed my Google News Reader.. Matt Hanson

(Image from utopiacere’s Flickr) It’s Blog Action Day and the subject that I’m posting about this year is Poverty. So, how can information architects help fight poverty? Honestly, I have no fucking idea. But how can you help the fight against poverty, as a person? Make it personal. You don’t always have to donate cash to big organizations where you have [...]

It was only my second year going, but I felt the same thing. It was very different. Unified. My hubby and I noticed the same thing that there were more African-Americans than before but still not enough.
