Genesis Chapter 11 ..."And the LORD said, Behold the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do."

I am not creating this blog for the purpose of claiming any preferred status in Biblical interpretation ...yet, often we can find application, as problems are not so varied that they are totally unique unto themselves.

I also believe it is healthy to laugh at our problems ...but, only if it is our problems (not laughing at the struggles of others); and only if we can learn from our mistakes by correcting them and moving on.

It is with this intent that I am going to attempt to inject humor ...and I say, attempt ...as I do not blame any of you who may say, "failed attempt". 

The younger generation has on many occasions seen the older generations as priding themselves with a full grasp of the art of exaggeration ...and if we have influenced the upcoming generations in any way at all, we may have impressed them in this area. Likewise, the youth have come up with a few of their own ...and in reading this (if they leave their tower for a moment or two) they may dismiss it as merely an "epic fail". 

But, though we should bridge gaps and make friendships, let us not make a huge mistake of labeling other people as a failure, simply because we may fail to understand them.

I agree with those who label my Dad's generation, The Greatest Generation.  War is not a pleasant thing, and it is often best to avoid ...but, who could idly stand by and watch the horrors without getting involved??  Many sacrifices were made to defeat the evil that was exploding throughout this world.
