Definitions

I watched Batman Returns the other night and one of those movie catch phrases stuck with me. "Often it's not who you are inside, but what you do that defines you." That sticks with someone who wants to do a lot but has a lot of trouble picking up momentum. So, the big question remains... what the hell am I doing?

Mostly I'm reading a lot, entertaining and disciplining a 4 and 7 year old, watching MASH, planning for a 5 day camping trip I'm taking next week, and looking forward to every Thursday, Friday and Sunday every week. On a scale of "nothing-to-something" I'd say I'm up to about 40% something and the rest nothing. I'd like to get some more something.

EM,
The harder we work to find ourself the harder we are to find.
God has made us complex as well as simple. He knows the plans He has for YOU. Seek and you will find, Ask and it will be given to you, Knock and it will be opened for you. GOd loves you and so do I

Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better.

I have found the paradox that if I love until it hurts, then there is no hurt, but only more love.
