Late Night Writing from coffeehouse junkie

Happened on this one by chance: an essay from the literary magazine "Blue Sky Asheville," which I'm linking as much because it's a nice piece of writing as because there's some U2 content.
Excerpt: "It's difficult explaining to my children why I go to church because sometimes I just don't want to go. Why should I force them to do something I don’t want to do? Yet, I remind them to brush their teeth and wash their hands and eat wholesome organic foods and vegetables. Should I make them go to church? After all, Christianity is fubar. It’s like an auto that is well beyond an oil change and the engine has locked up but the gears are still hammering away as if it will still move forward another inch."
