I'm running out of steam! Can you believe that?! It's only been 6 entries. Sad.
So what's new with me? Not much really. But usually when I start writing impromptu, something hits me.........................um, nothing. Sometimes there is just too much talking, too much music, too many movie scripts, too much reality tv...just too much NOISE. I find it amusing when someone can't stand the quietness that falls on a room of people. Suddenly, someone feels the need to clear their throat or drop an ink pen, pinch a baby, haha...But if you're always talking when do you ever listen? Little Brother Kyle was trying to prove to the family on Family Night that a person who talks a lot is to be considered among one of the smartest people in a group. That boy, that 13 year old cocky little teenager whom I love with all my heart had to be given a lesson from the fam. It's pretty obvious that he loves the sound of his voice and that he feels that he always has the last valid point in a discussion. He was trying to explain to Little Brother Caleb that since he is the quieter of the two that he must not be as intelligent. Little did he know that that premise made him out to appear the less intellectual. He'd set himself up for a life lesson. The book of Proverbs is littered with scripture about the "lips of a fool" (quite the opposite of those of an intellect.) Nonetheless, my point is this. Turn the music down. All the way down. Turn the TV off. Drive to work in silence. Sit/stand outside in peace for just15 minutes. Just be quiet.
When there's nothing to say, pray.
Something came to me after all. This concludes the blog for right now. I love you-whoever you are.
