Kindness


One would think I'd have a better picture since I spent a long weekend in Dallas visiting a friend and helping with Sports Extravaganza.  As mentioned in the link to this earlier post, it's a working weekend, but it's wonderful to be with a great friend and help others.  Everyone is always so nice when I go down to help.  Friday night as we were finishing set up, I sat and talked to a small group of people.  One was a Lion and always helps with the event.    We were talking about being ready early Saturday morning for the event.  During a silly conversation, I said it'd be nice if I had an omelet Saturday morning.  He wanted to know what I'd put on my omelet.  "Oh, I don't know.  Maybe ham and cheese with a little spinach... and hash browns," I bantered.  Saturday am I arrived to find my ham, cheese, and spinach omelet with a side of hash browns.  It was so sweet!  Today as the Park n Go guy dropped me off at my car, he told me he liked my bumper stickers (Democratic).  I thanked him, and he said he'd see me again at the gate.  When I approached the gate, he stopped at my car and gave me a mix CD from the 60s and told me I'd like it.  It was a bit weird yet a bit sweet.  People are kind.

I really like the idea of someone giving me an omelette. With hash browns. I'm going to talk to Husbandman about this.

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.
