Rabbi Pesach Sommer , Running Thoughts #38 /Thoughts now that I have run my second marathon 1 Citation The Big Sur Marathon had it all; beautiful scenery, a challenging course and?cows. Not just any cows, but running cows. No, they weren?t on the course, but as we ran past a lush green field, there they were, a whole herd of cows running through the field.

What is the difference between them and me?? Of c, technorati.com

This morning, as I said the morning prayers, I took note of one sentence from Psalms that is part of the daily morning service. It is a line that I have said many times, but never really thought about before. ?Not in the strength of man does He desire, nor in the legs of man does He favor?. The Psalmist seems to be saying that strength o, technorati.com

Rabbi Pesach Sommer:Running Thoughts #40 Volume 2 Thoughts now that I have run my second marathon 1 Citation I am working on a joke.

I wrote about how I wonder sometimes about my motive in needing to get faster. There was no cute solution or ending that might qualify it for ?Chick, technorati.com
