endless possibility
endless possibility
I’ll never be the same again
Never feel the way I felt
Never be just who I want
And maybe that’s not so bad
Rely on Me is what You say
Live in My strength,
Trust and obey
All the rest is meaningless
Will waste away, return to dust
Help me see what You see in me
And know that with You that’s
Endless possibility
I just can’t do the things I want
Stop doing things I want to stop
Quit messing up and falling down
And maybe that’s not so bad
Rely on Me is what You say
Live in My strength,
Trust and obey
All the rest is meaningless
Will waste away, return to dust
Help me see what You see in me
And know that with You that’s
Endless possibility
All my thoughts You knew before
Yet You loved me still somehow
I loved You back, you took me in
And now it’s not so bad
Rely on Me is what You say
Live in My strength,
Trust and obey
All the rest is meaningless
Will waste away, return to dust
Help me see what You see in me
And know that with You that’s
Endless possibility
What I know, what I believe, are different now, hard to conceive
What You see, what You show, what You’ve planned for me, I know
I’m dreaming now, Your thoughts in mine, I wait for You, our hearts entwined
There’s nothing left but
endless possibility
To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under Heaven.

"Bomb" Scares and the War of the Worlds
When Orson Wells broadcast "War of the Worlds" in 1939, people listened, heard the aliens were on their block and killed themselves without ever looking out their windows to see if it was true. Yep. It never occurred to them that they might have heard noises or that if the electricity were actually out they couldn't be listening to their radios. It has been a while since I studied this, so I am just stating my opinion based on recollections from a paper I wrote in the 80s. (Wonder where that paper is?)
Anyway, the point is that some cities are full of silly people. We have witnessed a recent event, by way of an ad campaign by the Cartoon Network, that most cities got through unscathed, but one city found overwhelming. AND, now we know they will get a couple mill out of it. Here is Jimmy Kimmel's take on it. I especially like the Homeland Security PSA (Public Service Announcement) at the end. Enjoy!
