My hope for my
children must be that they respond to the still, small voice of God in their
own hearts.

I
(heart) technology. Last Thursday, I was eating a hard pretzel when I broke off
the front of one of my back teeth and was left with a giant bleeding hole in my
tooth. This was terrible. However, four hours later, I walked out of the
dentist's office with a totally rebuilt tooth. A few hours after that, the novocaine wore off and I enjoyed a meal as if nothing had
ever gone wrong. In the thousands of years of human history, only in the last
few decades has this sort of thing been possible. In centuries past, I would
either have had to have it pulled (if I had access to a dentist) or wait for
the tooth to become infected, die, and fall out on its own. Either way, that
one mishap would have meant weeks of pain and discomfort. Technology is cool.
