Rick Warren's action on his website made me think of this:

[CTyankee]

"Patience is
wider than one
once envisioned,
with ribbons
of rivers
and distant
ranges and
tasks undertaken
and finished
with modest
relish by
natives in their
native dress.
Who would
have guessed
it possible
that waiting
is sustainable—
a place with
its own harvests.
Or that in
time's fullness
the diamonds
of patience
couldn't be
distinguished
from the genuine
in brilliance
or hardness."

2. I think we got under his skin. He's smarting.

SElf serving and defensive. He's getting his words shoved back at him and he doesn't care for it.

Well, fine, he's made his bed and now he has to lie in it...

I hope our words haunt his dreams.

But I do love the poem. A gay woman wrote it...
