that we could learn to be still, like that word seems to instruct...

Amen!
It would be a beautiful name for a sailboat... perhaps written in Hebrew like that.

it would be great name for a fly rod, too. particularly a slower action rod, i.e., a bamboo fly rod.

I love that word too. I like to try to PAUSE before speaking (doesn't always work though :)...

Oh yeah, it would also be a great name for a coffee mug too....hey wait a minute I seem to recall a young lass (Kim :), just few weeks ago presenting us with the same...one with the word Pause and the other with Begin...I picked the pause and matthew picked the other...Great fun! Thanks kim...great Selah!!!

hey krista...how are clinicals going?


thomas...you're so subtle.

Krista said...

Clinicals are going pretty good. I have 4 and 1/2 days left...so I'm looking forward to the Christmas Holiday. Mental Health, on a lockdown unit, has definitely been a good experience for me...I must say that ultimately, though, I'm just looking forward to being a real nurse :)....but for now a student I am..
