This blog is looking for wisdom, to have and to share. It is also looking for other rare character traits like good humor, courage, and honor. It is not an easy road, because all of us fall short. But God is love, forgiveness and grace. Those who believe in Him and repent of their sins have the promise of His Holy Spirit to guide us and show us the Way.

Two Americas
Democratic presidential candidate, former Senator John Edwards, he of "Two Americas" rhetoric, has built a new house on 102 acres near Chapel Hill North Carolina for his family. The main living area is only a little more than ten thousand square feet! That is connected by a heated walkway to another six thousand square feet area that includes a basketball court, a racquetball court, and a pool. There are twenty-nine thousand square feet altogether. Edwards sold his home in Raleigh in a development called "Country Club Estates" for 1.4 million dollars. He also recently sold his mansion in the Georgetown area of Washington D.C. for just a little more than five million dollars. Of course he also owns an oceanside vacation home in a gated community. The gate, presumably, is to keep out us "other Americans."
