What price to pay?

Just what is the price of our freedom? Why is freedom not free? Why does that which makes us different bring us together? Why does that which binds us destroy us? I ask the questions but I know not the answers.

Sad times...

It has been too long since I last posted. I think of all kinds of good topics I want to write about and possibly start a discussion about. But I just don't have the time anymore, or rather what little time I have I am so tired I can hardly think straight. My wife was nearly healed when three weeks ago she experienced severe pain in her left thigh. Eleven days later she was admitted into the hospital with another infection and today I found out she is to have another surgery. It will be the same or worse as her last one. That means she will be suffering great pain and anguish for several months. I love her so much and I am terrified I am going to lose her. How much more can her weak and fragile body take? I continue to pray, please do so too.
