Faith Restored . . . and then some.

So, if you have been following along, Abe triumphed over Rove. The pendulum has begun its swing back. At last, correction is under way. My faith in the order of things, how the world works, is restored.

One of the many wonders of this world, and this life, is to learn from the great people who have preceeded us, and to appreciate the depth of their wisdom.

At this moment to reflect on the following:

“You may fool all the people some of the time, you can even fool some of the people all of the time, but you cannot fool all of the people all the time.” Abraham Lincoln.

and

"The stone that the builders rejected has become the corner stone." Psalms 118:22

and to see that this is true, whether the context is national or regional, involving millions, or just a few. At the heart of the matter is the resilience of people and their collective will.
