I use C L Couch when writing formally because it is a version of my name that's genderless. And, frankly, easier for handwriting--I have a severe writer's cramp. In conversation, I go by Christopher, having been named for the boy who had the poly bear and finally being (achieving) fine with that.
I use small Xes all the time because WordPress won't let me cut and paste the text from my program page to this one. (Grrrrrr.)
I am a career educator, semi-retired due to disability. I live in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania (USA).
The main photographs at this site (of the road, of me) were crafted by photographer and my friend Debra Danielson. A variety of her work is available for appreciation at
Thank you, lookers, hearers.--Christopher

oh. oh dear brother. what a calming, soothing, and an anointed closing to your Psalms. Indeed we find joy in Him and our skills will never be enough in praising him because He is excellence. ❤

Sister, sometimes I wonder how we could praise God with anything new, let alone splendid. Then I realize that’s not the point.
In the Bible, Psalm 51 is my favorite. So I’ve been drafting at least one more psalm-song. But I so like, frankly, your words in summation–“calming, soothing, and an anointed closing.” So I’m keeping your concluding comment in my heart. Thank you, sister!

Awww. Please keep them. You truly deserve them. ❤
And I will be waiting patiently for that Psalm 51. ❤

The last three lines . . . summary of faith, essence of the relationship. Moving.

Thank you, Lizl. I especially appreciate your commenting about relationship. I’d hoped “We know” (well, built upon the rest) would get that across. “Moving” is rewarding to receive.

Beautiful! singing lovely despite coming from the lips of man, for God it us enough. I hope so 🙂

Well, we only have our own skill to offer in service to the Lord and each other. What we do will never be as perfect as what the heavenly do, but I think our earthbound efforts will still sound and be good to God. Thanks so much for seeing this as beautiful.
