“Seeking Thee
Lord, I seek thee for renewing
Of my faith and of my love
Rush and care are my undoing
Touch me, Savior, from above
Pass me not, oh holy Savior
Leave me not to grope and fail
Through thy blood I seek thy favor
With thy grace I can prevail
Faith moves in to claim the promise
Peace revives and flood my soul
Make me now thy chosen chalice
Giving drink that makes men whole
Seeking thee, seeking thee
Touch and give me liberty”

“Seemingly every culture before our own has had a single acceptable way to raise a baby. These cultures wouldn't have cared about the new scientific findings: they already knew how babies worked. Their answers were all very different, mind you, but they had this in common: all the other answers were wrong.
Such confidence makes sense. If you have to raise a baby, not study a baby, you'd better settle on an answer, and as long as you have settled on an answer, you may as well be certain about it. Pretty much everyone has been very certain. But if everyone has been very certain, and everyone's certainty has been very different, you start to suspect that there aren't that many certainties after all. There's no one true path. Or put another way: the one true path is forked.”

Manny and Big Papi were one-two in slugging in 2004, and from 2003-06 Boston’s big bats gave the club two of the league’s top five sluggers—something no other team in the league could boast.”
