The Black Sheep of Gods Family - Camerin Courtney
April 27, 2005
I had a bad feeling from the name of the event: Gods Design for Womanhood. But a cool new friend invited me to this Saturday afternoon tea and talk at her church, so I ignored my reservations and agreed to go. Surely it wouldnt be as wife- and mom-centric as I feared. As I crafted an e-mail back to my friend telling her Id be delighted to join her, I scolded myself: Youre just too cynical and jaded. |

I received this update today.
Hello!
A quick update on Christian. Ive been told that he is eating now, and that he is recognizing a few more people & able to recall their names. When one asked what his favorite Cursillo song was, he responded "Here I am Lord".

With all of our sex-talk around here lately (and more to come next week from the "abstinent again" crowd, so stay tuned), I figured you all might appreciate a funny conversation I had with a work colleague on a plane ride recently. This divorced and remarried woman was asking me about online dating, how eHarmony works, what the current dating scene is like. Since shes a fiction writer, I suspected this was a bit of research as well as just personal interest. |

Once I had a friend who had never tasted shellfish. Not a shrimp, not a crab
leg, not a lobster. Not once. Never. This seemed very strange and more than
a little sad, and I asked him why. His answer was odder still.
"My mother is very allergic to shellfish, he said. "She might have passed
the allergy along to me. But he didnt know. "Youre not certain? I
asked. "You dont know. Maybe youre not." True enough, he said, but he
didnt want to take the risk.
I never quite got over his revelation. Now and then Id say, out of the
blue, "Cmon -- lets go over to Northwestern Memorial right now -- well
split a shrimp cocktail in the emergency room lobby. If you start to go into
shock, well be right there. One shrimp. Theyre great. You dont know what
youre missing. He always refused.
I thought of him this week, reading the responses of single people to
Richard Roepers column on the joys of bachelorhood. Their point, simply
stated, is that theyre happy being single, so why should married people try
to pressure them into marriage? |
