Even Better than the Real Thing by U2



As I was sitting in church, I thought Every Breath You Take by The Police (Sting) was going to be my song.  Breath is important in the service I attend.  When I returned home from church, the first thing I did was turn on ESPN and Sunday NFL Countdown.  This afternoon I will play golf and finish in time for the late games.  Both the Packers and the Rams play late games, so I'll be thrilled to watch either game.  Although the first week of regular season marks fall and a new year of school, I LOVE football.  It's "even better than the real thing," whatever the real thing happens to be.  Next week the Cyclones will take on the Hawkeyes, and I will breathe in my prayer that the Cyclones kick ass.  Of course the misguided Hawkeye fans will be praying the same thing on the other side, but they probably don't have the power of breath.  Football season is upon us, and once again I will spend most of my Saturday and Sunday watching football which works well with the beginning of school because I can sit with my computer on my lap taking care of school business and watching TV.  Bring it!  "It's even better than the real thing" (which for me is summer).

Sankalpa Day 5

Today I went back to the interweb to find out what I could post about that would relate to sankalpa .  "...Sankalpa has the potential to release tremendous power by clearly defining and focusing on a chosen goal."  My chosen goal since May has truly been on being physically active.  Since it's cold and miserable out, I've been being active inside instead of outside.  December 6th (or something like that) was the last time I ventured outside for physical activity.  I, however, have still been going to they gym and focusing on being physically fit (or at least burning enough calories to eat more food).  Yesterday I received an early morning text from a friend in God's Country .  President Obama was talking about "The President's Challenge" .  Today (I tried yesterday and decided to put it off until today... forget out it... let it happen... put it aside... clear my mind of it... all probably sankalpa) I formed a group.  The...

What if... The Delivery

  Molly was excited to get a package from her friend who lives in Alaska.  When she opened the box, she was confused.  Although the shirt was actually soft and of good quality, she was upset by the guns in the flag.  When she googled Holster's, it was exactly what she thought... pro-gun.  She didn't know how to handle the situation, so she sent a picture stating she was confused. Her friend had obviously lost her mind.  During the conversation, she kept proclaiming that she hadn't sent a t-shirt.  When Molly explained it was her writing on the box, things became weird.  The friend was in a state of denial.  Molly even sent a text with a picture of the writing on the box. Molly's friend was adamant that she sent homemade condiments.  She wouldn't give up on her story even though it was clear Molly is in possession of an NRA type t-shirt.  After much deliberation, the two friends realized what had happened.  The original box, wit...

Missing You

Two Sundays ago I missed church because I was out of town. Last Sunday I missed church because I could not get to church due to the marathon (blocking my path... not my running). Dad and I tried to leave early, but we did not leave early enough. I joked with Dad about the fact that they would miss me at church. When I checked my e-mail this evening, I actually had an e-mail from my pastor saying I was missed. It was a short e-mail, but it was sweet and definitely a positive part of my day.
