Ken’s e-Pistle – December 13, 2023

Ken's e-Pistle December 13, 2023 Somehow, it finds me every year.  I am speaking of the annual poinsettia which mysteriously appears at our front door.  I don’t know from whence it comes nor from whom.  It is a conundrum.  I suspect that a friend or family member is responsible for this.  They are the [...]

Ken’s e-Pistle – November 15, 2023

Ken's e-Pistle November 15, 2023 There is a very interesting word in our heritage which colors our daily struggle.  It comes from the Hebrew and is transliterated, “timshel.” It means, “You may.”  Or, “You may be.”  Or simply, “Maybe” It is the root of our free will and first appears in the conversation between [...]
