I sat on the sand at Playa del Rey yesterday and closed my eyes. For whatever reason, I haven't been feeling well-rested lately. I mean, sure, I've been sleeping 4½ to 5½ hours a night, so that's probably not been helping. So my mind drifted off quickly.

You can't lose something you never had. And yet, that makes it even worse.

Mark 12:28-31, New Revised Standard Version

The wound inside my heart.
