Great weekend! Quickly running through the footy, another win to the Sydney Swans, in a terrifically close and tense match, in which the lead change 15 times, it finished 85-79. Kennelly, and O'Loughlin kicked back to back goals late in the fourth quarter to hold off the Magpies.
Sunday, was a nice quite day, and then church. We are back in the Old Testament looking at Amos now. Back to Monday, after work, caught the train down to Wollongong and went and caught up with Ben and Karen with my brother which was great.
It was a quick trip with many highlights, including dinner with Karen and Ben, the sunrise as I caught the train to work, and finally listening to Simon and Garfunkel's Katy’s Song.
Along with general catching up, conversations about movies, we also talked about CD’s, and we got on to the top 10 CD’s we own. In my list, I’m going to limit to 1 CD / Artist, no Greatest Hits, and Soundtracks. The other two disclaimers are firstly, draw nothing from the order, and the list is subject to change.
So here we go…

‘Through a cradle of rest You've quietly brought me. I'm surrounded by mercy. As Your love unfolds, it makes me whole. I'll follow Your promise as my will gets lost deep within Your arms, and I see way beyond this broken life, way beyond the fall. In Your eyes I found a peace that carries me on and it's brought me to the Truth. This is what Your grace can do. ’ [What Your Grace Can Do]

Radiohead – OK Computer
‘aliens hover making home movies for all the folks back home of all these weird creatures who lock up their spirits, drill holes in themselves and live for their secrets, I'd tell all my friends but they'd never believe me ...

Daniel Lanois - Shine
Every life that has no end / Every knee not ready to bend / Is falling, falling at your feet Have come crawling, falling at your feet ...
in whom shall I trust / and how might I be still / teach me to surrender / not my will, thy will ... [Falling at Your Feet]
