i like this song

I've got my memories
They're always
Inside of me
But I can't go back
Back to how it was
I believe now
I've come too far
No I can't go back
Back to how it was
Created for a place
I've never known

Chorus:
This is home
Now I'm finally
Where I belong
Where I belong
Yeah, this is home
I've been searching
For a place of my own
Now I've found it
Maybe this is home
Yeah, this is home

Belief over misery
I've seen the enemy
And I won't go back

Back to how it was
And I got my heart
Set on
What happens next
I got my eyes wide
It's not over yet
We are miracles
And we're not alone

(Chorus)

And now after all
My searching
After all my questions
I'm gonna call it home
I got a brand new mindset
I can finally see
The sunset
I'm gonna call it home

(Chorus)

Now I know
Yeah, this is home

I've come too far
Now I won't go back
This is home

Consistency

I frequently read Len Munsil's blog. A couple weeks ago he wrote this:

According to the New York Times:
Senator Joseph R. Biden Jr., the Democratic nominee for vice president, departed Sunday from party doctrine on abortion rights, declaring that as a Catholic, he believes life begins at conception. But the Delaware senator added that he would not impose his personal views on others, and had indeed voted against curtailing abortion rights and against criminalizing abortion.
This is the worst and most inhumane of all positions on abortion. Those who argue that what occurs in a mother's womb is nothing but a blob of tissue until, at birth, it magically becomes a human child are wrong as a matter of science, reason and ethics. But at least they are consistent when they conclude that their "blob of tissue" can legally be removed and destroyed.
For someone to conclude that a human life is at stake, as Biden does, but then refuse to prevent the taking of that human life is beyond morally reprehensible. It is the height of political cowardice, hidden under the dismissive, politically correct nod to enlightened tolerance -- being unwilling to "impose his values" on others.
I couldn't agree more.

the new horse


He's pretty.


And he's big.


His name is Wilby.


Short for William Wilberforce.
