“Do not be overrighteous, neither be overwise--why destroy yourself?” Ecc.7 “Conversations Within” ts 11/19/2019
Grace modeste- an "unassuming grace." Any discussion of a spiritual nature should reflect this mutual kindness. The following are simply my devotional reflections each morning. I cast them like "bread upon the waters," hoping that all who find them will find something of value to nurture their own inner life.

“Here lies the body of William Jay who died maintaining his right of way -He was right, dead right, as he sped along, But he's just as dead as if he was wrong.” Tombstone
There are some very real negatives when we become a stickler for always being right. It has been wisely asked, “What good is winning an argument if we lose our friend?” If we insist on being right, let it be for the right reasons--reasons which promote love and goodness not some silly notions of pride that we may harbor.
