My little experiment

I'm going to o a little experiment wit h you guys right now. 've got a tablet computer which means that I can turn the scren around and not see whatI'm typing at all. I can only see the keys. Not the resultpof what I've typed. I hope I'm doing well enough that youcan wread what I'm saying. I'm trying to not over think things because then I get ll caught up in what I'm ttryping to do. Sometimes I make a mistake and can tell that I have. so I'll backspace and try to fix it. But how fast was a typing and how many backspaces doI need to go? I was doing this a second ago and realized what an analogy for life this is. We're writing our story, just typing along and we do our best to write the story as well as we can. Sometimes we know we mess up and we try to go back and fix it. But other times we have no idea we've left an error in our story. SoSomeday, well get to the end and we'll be able to turn around the screen and see what we'e accomplished. Maybe it will make sense and impact someone. maybe it will be illegible garble. Some mistakes will be funny, and some with be embarrassing. We'll have made mistakes..some more than others. Some will take longer to type and therefor say less...

Anyway. just wanted to share the random thoughts with you. Hope that made sense. I'm excited to see how it turned out. :)

listless

I'm not sure what is going on in my head, but i'm very uninspired lately. i feel like there is so much more I should be doing, but its like i'm watching life from through a window. like i have no real impact on the story, i just sit and watch it unfold and hope the story starts getting adventurous. I'm chosing to call it uninspired because that still leaves the door open for me to have some kind of impact. Like if i could just muster up some passion for something I would be able to find some great purpose and meaning in what I'm doing. I'm thinking about all the kids going back to school and the college students heading off for a new year, and I'm finding that I'm jealous. My life doesnt cycle like that anymore. There is no rise and fall with the seasons. There is no connection to the calendar. Everyday bleeds by in the same numbing pattern. My clothes barely even change with seasons anymore. everyday finds itself looking exactly like the last: wake up l...

whats your self worth?

People have said, something is only worth what someone would pay for it. If what you're selling, no one is buying, then what you have is pretty worthless. But there are stores out there that sell all kinds of things and so the market makes room for them. People are the same. Some people are beautiful, but useless for more than their looks. Like a painting they are worth a lot because people see them as rare.But, some people can go their whole lives without decorating. Some people are useful and so are worth a lot because they fulfill some purpose. Hardworking, or smart, they are seen has having some value that makes them worth the investment. Then there are people I'd characterize as novelty people. You buy them because you've just never seen anything like them. They're especially entertaing or unique. They don't cost a lot, so you can't pass them up. Then there are bargain people. They don't cost much, arent worth much and don't last long. They fill a s...

Musical Unity: A response to Michael Gungor

When I first started listening to Contemporary Christian Music (CCM) the only people around were Amy Grant and Michael W Smith. Maybe Kathy Tricolli and Sandi Patty...Any maybe Carmen, but why mention Carmen? Shortly before I started listening to CCM there was no such thing as CCM. The 80s were just about a barren wasteland for Christian entertainment. We had a handle on good old Gospel and regular people started writing worship music. My life wouldn't be the same without Keith Green. But then came the 90s. WHAT an AMAZING time!! Right? DC talk, Audio Adrenaline, Newsboys, OC Supertones...Holy Music COW! If you were a young Christian, you could turn your radio up proudly and still feel cool. It was EPIC. From 15-21 I didn't listen to much other than CCM. Only the cool CCM of course. The stuff that the local Christian radio station only played on Friday Nights. Then I hit 21 and was, practically overnight, too cool for CCM. I bought a soapbox on top of which I declared ...
