It was kind of Robyn to let me know you joined the "Building" meme, too! Your husband sounds like a wise fellow, Jackie. You should keep him! :-D Hey, welcome to the Middle Zone, Jackie; I’m glad you decided to drop by. It was kind of Robyn to let me know you joined the “Building” meme, too!

My lovely wise husband is fond of saying "Be careful who you listen to" and it taught me that credible people also will have an agenda of their own. Realising that makes sifting advice a wee bit easier. Jackie First time here Robert - and what a way to start!

My lovely wise husband is fond of saying

“Be careful who you listen to”

and it taught me that credible people also will have an agenda of their own. Realising that makes sifting advice a wee bit easier.

Well, er, um, sure! Of course I was, Joanna (he said, taking credit where it wasn’t due)! Hey, as much as I like to think I’m capable of a Deep Thought or two every now and then… well, ultimately my inspiration is from the One I gave my life to many years ago.

Oh, and thanks!

But I was wondering if you were meaning this to work at a deeper level too - or if it was just the way that I was reading it. I found myself thinking about the source of the words that we write, or the stories that we tell or the truth that we try and share. And that when we're not sure of what to say - well however we define it and whatever it means to us, religious or not, in some way or another we go back and look to the Source... Just a thought. You do have that effect on us. Joanna A priceless description of Jonah emerging from the water - thank you!

It's interesting how some people are very selective about who they'll listen to, while others follow the advice of anyone at the drop of a hat. It's a blessing if you have people around you who "never give you a bum steer"! Nice interpretation of the Jonah story, Robert.

Jonah sure received a big signal!
