The King's Speech

As usual, I stumble on things.  Not only around the house, but on the Internet. 

Here is a delightful and insightful piece by William H. Willimon entitled, Voice Lessons.  It is written as he reflects on the movie, The King's Speech.

The Lost Tools of Learning

This piece written by Dorothy L. Sayers was found by way of The White Horse Inn.  You are invited to learn and enjoy, as I did.


I long to fill all my time for thee,
   whether at home or in the way;
   to place all my concerns in thy hands;
   to be entirely at thy disposal,
   having no will or interest of my own.
Help me to live to thee for ever,
   to make thee my last and only end,
   so that I may never more in one instance love my sinful self.

--an excerpt from, Devotion,  in The Valley of Vision
