A Word. | Historian and Thespian
https://jwhayward.wordpress.com/2010/02/24/a-word
I’m forcing myself to write this. It is only by sitting down, setting the computer in front of me, and typing that anything is going to appear on the screen and have a chance of appearing on multiple screens, in multiple places, becoming a moment in multiple lives. What does it mean to live in relation to the history that has come before? How might we even pay homage to past traditions in our daily lives? There is a radio show called. Responses to “A Word.”.

Zooming In, Zooming Out | Historian and Thespian
https://jwhayward.wordpress.com/2009/11/21/zooming-in-zooming-out
Zooming In, Zooming Out. Listening right now to U2’s song Your Blue Room. Feel free to hit play on the right side there to set the appropriate atmosphere as you read. Well, here I am…again. Don’t you wish, though, that more people took the time to choose their words? Is it necessary to respond immediately? How long would it really take to formulate an appropriate and respectful answer? I don’t want this. Responses to “Zooming In, Zooming Out”. Feed for this Entry. Leave a Reply Cancel reply.

Limbs Pointed Toward Heaven | Historian and Thespian
https://jwhayward.wordpress.com/2009/12/03/limbs-pointed-at-heaven
Limbs Pointed Toward Heaven. I had the pleasure of visiting Sequoia National Park with family this past Thanksgiving weekend. Despite the frigid temperatures of around 35 degrees F, it was an enormously enjoyable trip. I stood there for many minutes, feeling completely insignificant. These trees were bigger than me, but God was infinitely bigger than them…yes, even bigger than General Sherman. How could I marvel at these collections of wood without worshiping God?

So This Is Christmas… | Historian and Thespian
https://jwhayward.wordpress.com/2009/12/06/so-this-is-christmas
So This Is Christmas…. Think about it. The God who created ALL THINGS, including your very being, decided to come down to YOUR level and give His life for you. Not just for all of humanity, but for you as an individual. Sometimes I just have to stop and think about that. How could He love ME that much? It is nearly unfathomable. Can we reflect on it so much that we ask God for wisdom in how we might sacrifice some part of our comfort for the sake of those who are less fortunate? Feed for this Entry.

Life Flashes By. | Historian and Thespian
https://jwhayward.wordpress.com/2009/12/15/life-flashes-by
There are moments, and hopefully they are few, when life itself flashes before your eyes. In a split second, your entire body is tensed with a rush of fear and adrenaline, preparing to survive at all costs. An immediate danger has entered into the present circumstance, and you have to meet it, ready or not. Such a danger presented itself to me this past Saturday night. I was returning home from Santa Barbara after an incredibly enjoyable visit, seeing a production of. Feed for this Entry. You are comment...

Historian and Thespian | Reflections on life and history from a Jeffersonian thinker | Page 2
https://jwhayward.wordpress.com/page/2
Memories tied to remarkable music…what a gift. Life As A Story. I was going to write about my trip to San Francisco last weekend, but I don’t think I can really find all the words to describe the experience. So instead of talking about that, I will use the trip as an illustration for something else. I’m finishing an excellent book right now. It’s called A Million Miles In A Thousand Years. What are we doing right now that is memorable, that will be ultimately lasting when we have faded from this world?
