Notes and observations

The last month has  been intriguing with all the political and celebrity news. Some brief observations:
The Gov. Mark Sanford affair scandal is sad in  so many ways. Here is a man with big ambitions to be president risking it all on a romantic affair that he knows has no future. Matters of the heart- reason just doesn't work. Can you imagine how miserable it must have been to be at home with his wife and four sons when his heart was in Argentina? That is hell if there is one. 
This is not an attempt to gloat. This kind of failure happens more often than we hear about it.  I'm no fan of Sanford's but I wish him luck in rescuing his marriage, if not his political career. Makes me want to guard my heart more carefully than ever.
Later today some belated comments on the Steve McNair murder suicide.
