Craig Childress Johnson: December 2014
http://craigchildressjohnson.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
Thoughts, musings, and observations about the wonder of being alive in a glorious world. Wednesday, December 31, 2014. The Dissonance of Inequity 7-19-14. Mayflower Hotel, Washington DC. I walked two blocks down the street to do advance photography of the venue for a wedding I’m participating in about four hours from now. I may as well have traversed two galaxies. Am I any better than these guys on the cardboard? Does a fine suit really make the man? I would like to think so. I’ve no idea. What I do know...

Day Tripping: February 2011
http://houseofclement-daytripping.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Here you will find postings of my day trips. These short adventures prove it is not necessary to have a passport and a high-flying travel budget to see the world, only a picnic lunch and preferably a good friend to share it with. Pick a warm Saturday and leave the lawn mower in the garage and put the gas in the car instead and go make memories. Thursday, February 24, 2011. A Place Set Apart - 2-23-11. Belmont, North Carolina. We made time to stop for a pleasing lunch in The Daily Grind. This student ...

Craig Childress Johnson: Celebrating the Light 2-8-13
http://craigchildressjohnson.blogspot.com/2014/12/celebrating-light-2-8-13.html
Thoughts, musings, and observations about the wonder of being alive in a glorious world. Wednesday, December 31, 2014. Celebrating the Light 2-8-13. Anderson, South Carolina. I just spent a rainy cold winter evening with eight celebrants of this new life of faith, intoxicated with their joy and wonder. Holding hands with them, offering prayers of gratitude for their safe journeys to the far shore of Faith, I make sure there are enough tissues to touch those happy tears. Igniting a flame of hope in a dark...

Craig Childress Johnson: Infinite Vision 9-9-13
http://craigchildressjohnson.blogspot.com/2014/12/infinite-vision-9-9-13.html
Thoughts, musings, and observations about the wonder of being alive in a glorious world. Wednesday, December 31, 2014. Anderson, South Carolina. Pavithra K. Mehta in her book Infinite Vision. Intelligence and capability are not enough. There must also be the joy of doing something beautiful. Being of service to God and humanity means going well beyond the sophistication of the best technology, to the humble demonstration of courtesy and compassion to each patient. Craig C. Johnson. From My World To Yours.

Craig Childress Johnson: Special Knowledge 11-16-13
http://craigchildressjohnson.blogspot.com/2014/12/special-knowledge-anderson-south.html
Thoughts, musings, and observations about the wonder of being alive in a glorious world. Wednesday, December 31, 2014. Anderson, South Carolina. A Google search of ‘power grid disruptions’ showed nothing more than a few small scheduled outages for disaster training. On Nov 16th there’ve been no disruptions to the power grid and my dividends from the largest power companies continue without interruption. It was presented to me as a way to gain access to knowledge other people did not have. The GIN web...

Globe Trotting: July 2010
http://houseofclement-globtrotting.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, July 29, 2010. The World at Exit 79 7-29-10. Spencer, North Carolina. As I wondered for weeks recently at how the Mayans managed to lose track of a few hundred of their cities in a short time, I wonder how we in America are losing track of so many important things ourselves. Is there perhaps something we can learn from places like Yaxchilan and Spencer, before it is too late? Sunday, July 18, 2010. The Color of Conquest 7-8-10. Thursday, July 15, 2010. Is the Paint Dry?

Globe Trotting: November 2012
http://houseofclement-globtrotting.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, November 22, 2012. Some Musing on Serenity - Sydney, Nova Scotia 9-20-12. In 1942, Reinhold Niebuhr, a professor at Union Seminary wrote a prayer long taking the recovery world by storm. Its short version states simply, “God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.”. For those in recovery from alcoholism and addiction, tiny decisions can have huge consequences. Getting out of bed early to take ...
