I've been blogging since September and one thing I've noticed is that someone always reads. Our blogging community is tightly knitted. We encourage each other by visiting often. Stick around a little longer and you'll see what I mean.<br /><br />Silver, Autumn, Jody... Thanks for your comments. Be 'seeing' you soon.<br /><br />Alicia~ Thanks for your kind words. It takes time, much suffering, and dedication to write like that. :) We each have gifts.

Have you seen the Decalogue of t...Ms. Ellie Kings,<br /><br />Have you seen the Decalogue of ten short films by the late Polish director Krzysztof Kieslowski? It is not based as such on some ten commandments found in the Bible but rather raises interesting questions when the films are viewed as a whole. Questions such as, what should one do if by following one commandment, another is broken?<br /><br />Decalogue 1 begins with the story of Krzysztof, a rational mathematics professor, & his son, Pawel, who enjoy using their home computer to calculate & give them answers to just about everything in life. They switch on their home computer for almost everything. One day, the topic is ‘ice thickness & skating at the local lake’. Unfortunately, despite the calculations being correct, sometimes there are things in life overlooked...<br /><br />Decalogue 1 is a good introduction for western viewers into the world of Krzysztof Kieslowski and one that I recommend all to view at least once in their life. Kieslowski once made the point that technology, far from joining people together by means of say, the internet, radio, mobile phones, etc., in fact isolates them more than ever before. For example, you are probably alone as you read these words here.<br /><br />People are searching for something. All the time now. Google is used by most people every day to search for something. Thousands of people too write blogs trying to express themselves and what has happened to them. They will spend much time, writing, editing & rewriting. Hours, in fact, will fly by. Except for a few, many blogs remain unread, unviewed. People are worried too, but Matthew 6:31-33 says:<br /><br /><i>“So never be anxious and say, ‘What are we to eat?’ or, ‘What are we to drink?’ or, ‘What are we to put on?’ For all these are the things the nations are eagerly pursuing. For your heavenly Father knows you need all these things. Keep on, then, seeking first the kingdom and his righteousness, and all these [other] things will be added to you.”</i><br /><br />I bid you a very good day, Ms Ellie Kings.<br /><br />I remain, &c.<br /><a href="http://thetheatreofthethirdkind.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Alexander Dyle</a>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1603999447807174774.post-90022909948750992412009-12-12T02:12:05.547-05:002009-12-12T02:12:05.547-05:00Your welcome Karen.

It saddens me a little that I don't yet, but I am working on it. I guess that's one of the reasons why I started blogging, to share my work with others until I get something published. In the meantime, you could check out a short story I wrote on here. Finding Each Other One Last Time I & II (October archives). I'm sure you'll enjoy it. It's a true love story based on my relationship with my fiance. Thanks for your interest. It's heart warming. :)Ellie Kingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14711249217634726986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1603999447807174774.post-32316138679600579112009-12-11T16:00:21.871-05:002009-12-11T16:00:21.871-05:00Thanks Dianne! trying to maintain myself within Hi...Thanks Dianne! trying to maintain myself within His light... it's the only place I like to be.
