Set the record straight

There are a lot of 'stories' and 'textbooks' about what Independence day is all about, but I'm pretty sure this is how it all really happened.

Nothing like the blues.

I imagine that those who would read that as a status update would comment on the musical genre. The music that I truly love, and strangely don't seem like 'blues' at all. I have the blues though. It seems like a breeze as it comes in and I feel like the wind is out of my sails and I gaze into the mirror of my life.
I'm always concerned with my motivations. Why am I doing this? Why does it matter?
Life is a journey, fantastic for some. We all end at the same place, so how we get there is important.
Is it ok to look? If you do what do you measure yourself against? (see deeper and deeper)
So whatever american measurements are I probably don't measure up.
But it's ok i think.

It is amazing what I can learn from comic strips.

Not getting a twitter

I may think in twitter length quotes sometimes but I'm not getting an account. But here are a few recent ones.

"Everybody bemoans the loss of the youth and teens.
But when you ask them who is engaging, mentoring,
and discipling youth no one will raise their hands." -Me

"Make new Christians, Not borrow Christians." -Me

"There are wild mushroom eaters, and there are those
who are watchin' wild mushroom eaters." -Erwin Mcmanus

I got a pair of good ones of a couple tea bag tags.

"Friends come and go, but enemies accumulate."
and
"Minds, like parachutes, work only when they are open." -Salada tea bag tags

doodlin'

So way back in May I was at District Assembly. Since I'm still young, creative, and a little flippant I doodled a bit. Anyway After 3 days of staring at our denominational banner I doodled and made what I would call a masterpiece. It is at least from the dove's perspective.
