Sometimes,doing nothing is the best reaction.

Watergate provides a model case study of the interaction and powers of each of the branches of government. It also is a morality play with a sad and dramatic ending.

I think it would be very foolish not to take the irrational seriously.

I thought about texting Lucas, but what would i say? That I'd tossed and turned all night, thinking of his hands on me?

Jesus is the yes to every promise of God.
