How long does it take?

First three thoughts from Solomon, David and Isaiah. Thoughts from ancient times.

‘ Ponder the path of your feet and let all your ways be established. Don’t turn to the right or left, remove your feet from evil.’

‘ You will show me the path of life in your presence is fulness of joy, at your right hand are pleasures for evermore.’

‘ And your ears will hear a word from behind you saying, this is the way, walk this way.’

How long does it take from here to there?

Where is your there?

Here and then in the church yard?

So what is the question again?

Is it a long time from the house to the church yard?

Thirty minutes there and thirty minutes back with ten minutes to take pictures.

Seventy minutes in all.

How long does it take from the house to the church yard?

I don’t know! Do you?

Some say seventy years but not for all!

Some less, some more.

Let’s do this in photographs…

House by kind consent of owner

Medieval All Saints’ Church Binfield by builders in the 14th century until now.

Grave stones placed by those who loved and remembered.

Primroses and daffodils by spring 2026.

A firm path from the house to the church yard. How long does it take?

‘ Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.’ Psalm119:105

‘ A long life may not be good enough, but a good life is long enough.’ Benjamin Franklin

‘ A light heart lives long.’ William Shakespeare.

Take care,

Ps

Last night the worm moon was out. The worm moon is the first full moon in March, the first full moon in springtime. This is when it is said the earth begins to warm after the cold months of winter and nature wakes up and earthworms become more active in the soil.

Night with Light

The Unknown smiles,

The heavens Glory reveals vast suns, stars, matter.

Our eyes weep in humility.

Our knees tremble and low bow.

Sandy 🙂

I wrote this 14 November 2021 and the words came back to me as I looked at this photograph from last night.
