Some Favorite Words
That Start With D
"Daisy a Day:" A touching song by a guy named Jud Strunk that describes the devotion of a husband to a wife.
Death: I have contemplated this often. Sometimes, it seems amazing. Once in a while, I fear it. Most of the time, I am extremely excited
about taking the next step.
Derelict: One of those words I like the sound of. For a double-D, it's often used as "derelict in his duty."
Deuteronomy: One of the neater sounding books of the Bible. According to mine, it deals with hardship, testing, and doubt, but also with promise, hope and trust. My life in a nutshell.
Devotion: If I could have the kind of devotion to my wife that the character in "Daisy a Day," had, I'd be very pleased.
Something to strive for.
Dixie: With all of the negative connotations with this word, I can't help but believe that not EVERY person who is proud of it is a racist.
The history aspect fascinates me.
Donatell, Mr.: One of my junior high math teachers, he was a solidly squat fellow with a wooden leg. He also kept control by occasionally using a wooden paddle. I learned a lot from that great man.
Dreaming: If I'm not day-dreaming, I'm having multiple dreams at night. Twice I have remembered and written down
five dreams from one evening!
Dubuque: What used to be simply part of a jingle for a ham commercial has turned into my home longer than any other of the six towns I have lived in. Pop. 57,637.
Dusseldorf: A fun name, this town in Germany has 586,217 people. It's known for its fashion and trade fairs, plus the annual Largest Fair on the Rhine. It's probably very beautiful.
