the moon...

the moon is always changing. it changes it shape and it's color, yellow, orange, grey, clouded, blue, red, covered in haze, white in the daylight and brite in the nite. it's never the same and it's beauty will astound you, it was made to govern the nite as the lesser light.

STOP, gaze, soak it in....listen: For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse.

Question of the week

The famous QOTW....the question of the day has long disappeared.

This week's question:

Who will win the Superbowl?

My bet's on the Bengals.

My hometeam has a stronger chance then you think....GOOOOOOO EAGLES!

MONDAY!

Ok...scream it, MONDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah...that's better. Its a full week ahead of us campers, a full week of work and play. I am ready are you? Are you ready to change the entire world or are you ready for boredom. Fight with your teeth gritted and the whites of your eyes blazing. Live like you were meant to live. Get your mojo on. Turn it on full vloume and go and scream life to the masses. Most of all....be yourself you were made like Him.

contracts and embedded chips


so my freshman (HS) son had HW (that's what we call homework; we are a lazy family). The homework was for ME to sign his contract....needless to say we went over the importance of a contract and I got the normal....I know, I know from the high schooler. Three teachers had him sign contracts....most of them mentioned attitude and behavior and language....really they were talking about respect. We need to respect ourselves before we can respect others. Work it.

So my friend (she really hangs with my wife) Donna has some kind of minature exotic dog...actually wait here I have pics of this beast on my hard drive...k...you still here? Good. Well she had a chip embedded in his back....it isn't GPS mind you but it can be used to identify him. His name is Brutus.

Chip embedding....I want one.

free?




freedom

Define it.


Freedom is not knowing the meaning of the word, "freedom".

your turn.

WYOMING

Wyoming one of the 50, states that is. To me it is magical, beautiful and a land of enchantment. I was only there once, yet maybe not. In my mind I have been there more often then not. It is not the home of much...maybe that's why I like it so.
Here it is 1:30AM and my mind is racing, to and fro, back and forth. When I visited Wyoming, that one time...it was an adventure. A grand adventure...that's what I love. Thrill. Perchance. Majesty.
Creating those "adjetives" everyday and making them into nouns....is that what I do?
Racing...at times I want to finish. For as long as the race is...I am never finished.
Sometimes my posts....here in the blog world should not be posted.....is this one of those?
(I have an archive full of unpubished posts)
PURPOSE screams at me. I will hit "Publish" but for no reason but to satisfy my mind.

Enthusiasm....for no reason, fight to fight.
listen and you will hear the wolves....

NORMAL?
No, just enlightened.

MID-LIFE

HA! If only I knew this was 1/2 way through my life @ 43 years old. So I am watching a video of my rock-star debut @ camp last August when I rocked out doin' some praise and worship with three other guitar players...and I watch the video and...wait...no...yes...there it is....my head bent down as I look to see what I am playing on my guitar and I saw it....my bald spot. My youngest son is always readily pointing it out...this was my first glimpse of it....it DOES EXIST! HOLY COW!

I have been thinking a LOT lately....what am I doing...where am I going....what else do I want to do?? What if I truly had only a year left to live....would I work? Would I play??? Would I travel??? It is hard to fathom that question cause we all know...when it is our TIME....IT'S OUR TIME and when the BIG MAN calls us home...well we have better accomplished what we have wanted to accomplish....I have been thinking a lot about MOTIVATION lately. What is it that motivates me....recognition...a pat on the back seems to come to mind. Self-motivated...that is what I want, to be 100% self-motivated to succeed w/o wanting the pat on the back.

BRB have to go tuck the young one in ...he has his first day of High School tomorrow.
Stay put...

I'm back!!

Prayer, fellowship, teaching & the breaking of bread...these four things are what is important to me....I long to see and acknowledge the sunset daily. I want to see His handiwork in all things. I want to stop being cynical, I want to stop getting angry. I want to live a life for Him who gives life. Pray for me...and I for you.
Next time you see me...take a look @ my baldspot...it's pretty cool.
