... a cloth sack around my shoulder, and in this sack were globes of golden twine (globes of glory she called them), and in her dream I was throwing these globes to others. When she first told me this, I thought she was crazy, but then I realized today, I have even entitled my blog "On a quest for glory...". Hmm, maybe it's just a crazy coincidence.

That's not to say ...
