So many of us grew up with dads who put us on a performance basis and screwed up our image of our "heavenly Father". Thank God He has made it His mission to "un-do" that thinking and learning.

The <i>fact</i> that where TRUTH IS IT IS. And that's why I insist that if I have a truly receptive and sensitive heart, I can see truth in other religions. And I mean, I know I can't see Jesus, but I can see truthful ways in other religions. Artists, many of them being sensible people, have a way at looking at these type of things that happen in life. Alanis does it all the time. She looks at life and then just gets really realistic about things. Good stuff comes from that process. Thanks for sharing.

Also made me think, as a parent, about the times when I expect too much from my kids in the way of behavior. It's so much more important for them to know they are loved and accepted than to act a certain way. Thank God He is not like that, and that He truly loves and accepts us. Wow, what great love.

I was just being over cautious. You never know when someone won't like someone. But yeah. She's a great composer to me. Many songs have such great lyrics. I like Alanis a lot too.
