Give the devil his due. Without that devilish irritant in each of us we’d never mold a pearl. We’d never reach for the forbidden fruit that opens our eyes to unexplored realms of knowledge, including self-knowledge. We’d never come out of the wilderness with a vision. Without the devil we’d still be just another animal building the same exact nest for another million years. Without the devil I’d still be in my retirement cave.

Thanks to Old Scratch I’ll be posting a reflection on something I find remarkable in and around my world most every Sunday morning.
