This blog exists because friends heckle me (you know who you are). I'm not a true blogger by heart - but I do love to write and to talk to my friends. Sadly, I have this premonition that while living as an Englishwoman I will have precious little time to do either. Hence, the blog solution.
However, as I have started thinking about what to put on this page, I've been challenged to think of this as more than just an update forum on Brittney's life. As the title says, I'll be a stranger in a foreign land . . . like Abraham was a stranger in the land of promise, and like we as Christians are strangers even in our hometown.

My journey starts with the same two words that began Abraham's sojourn:

Poetry
There’s a certain slant of light
Emily Dickensen
There's a certain slant of light,
On winter afternoons
That oppresses, like the weight
Of cathedral tunes.
Heavenly hurt it gives us;
We can find no scar,
But internal difference
Where the meanings, are.
None may teach it anything,
'T is the seal, despair,
An imperial affliction
Sent us of the air.
When it comes, the landscape listens,
Shadows hold their breath;
When it goes, 't is like the distance
On the look of death.

Brit Britt... hahaha.
I think your new name from me is B2-- it stands for B-squared.
I heart you B2!!
I love it! Everything. I'm so excited, babe. This is going to be precious. And I know you're diligent enough to update more than every three months :) It will be a great way to follow your life as yielded to Christ, though.
