Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory;
but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.
Philippians 2:3
Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
Philippians 4:8

I am blessed.
This site is a collection of some of the "lovely things" that God has given me. I gather them together as a simple act of obedience... "think on these things" ... and as a matter of personal delight!

I'd like to ...
have a cutting garden
and "New Dawn" roses
and a dog
study physics
and calculus
and astronomy
learn another language
go to Israel
and Italy
and France
and the British Isles
learn to quilt
and play chess
find a perfect fragrance
