The Way of the Writer

A writer is a person who cares what words mean, what they say, how they say it. Writers know words are their way towards truth and freedom, and so they use them with care, with thought, with fear, with delight. By using words well they strengthen their souls.
---Ursula K. LeGuin

Reject Illusion

Don't take shadows too seriously. Reality is your only safety. Continue to reject illusion.

September 24, 2008 The ceremony was beautiful, with Rev. Claire coming to the house from Charlottesville and David's family coming up as well. The sun was setting, the air was crisp and the mountains were beginning their autumnal glory as we exchanged vows and rings. What a fine day.

1. Loyalty.
2. Forbearance: self-control towards others.
3. Hardihood.
4. Generosity: not just a simple matter of giving away what one has, but "Largitas in a man caused him to set no store on greed or gifts, and to have nothing but contempt for bribes."
5. Benevolence. The Davidic ethic: It is the strongest quality of the preudomme - benevolence of the strong toward the weak.
6. Honor: honor is achieved by living up to the ideal of the preudomme and pursuing the qualities and behavior listed above.

7. Championship: everywhere and always be the champion of the Right and the Good against Injustice and Evil.
