I couldn’t stomach that at all, imagining God as a bowler, being hit for sixes by a human batter! I can still recite poems I learned by heart in my childhood, but can’t remember what I read yesterday! My wife, who passed away over 30 years ago, smiles at me with our then months-old second daughter in her arms. Mercifully I still have my older daughter in the U.K. to share my highs and lows with. I have never quite understood the true meaning and significance of the old saying.
