Billy Graham's Regret: 'I Would Have Steered Clear of Politics'
Billy Graham, the beloved evangelist known as “America’s pastor,” says that looking back on his long life and public ministry, one thing he would do differently is to avoid the political entanglements that have been one of the rare blots on his otherwise hallowed legacy. “I … would have steered clear of politics,” Graham, now 92 and in need of round-the-clock care, said via e-mail in response to questions from Christianity Today, the evangelical monthly he founded in the 1950s. Graham also said that if he could go back and do anything differently he would “spend more time at home with my family, and I’d study more and preach less.”

"Everybody’s got a secret, Sonny,
Something that they just can’t face,
Some folks spend their whole lives trying to keep it,
They carry it with them every step that they take.
Till some day they just cut it loose
Cut it loose or let it drag ‘em down,"

Bruce Springsteen | Darkness On The Edge Of Town Lyrics
As I start the recovery process with a fantastic group of guys, I couldn’t get this lyric out of my head. Feels like Springsteen is speaking just to me. Obviously that’s part of his appeal, writing pop songs that are universal, yet feel specific to an individual.
But whatever you may feel about this song or The Boss (or God, for that matter), this is absolute truth. And it comes from a fantastic album about self-discovery and adulthood.

Always disheartening to put a challenging puzzle you’ve completed back in the box. Kind of a commentary on life.

@jonpyle Not to overstate the obvious, but…it ALL goes back in the box.
