A shout-out to my best (and probably only) reader
Hi, Josh. I miss you. I think of you often, and hope you're well. (smile - I'll spare you the emoticon)
In keeping with the title of this blog...
A few random thoughts:
This has been the perfect kind of autumn day: crisp, cool, clear and beautiful, with a hint of newness in the air. It feels like a fresh beginning.
Typing has ruined me for journaling. (Since I don't have a computer at home.) I can never write by hand fast enough to keep up with my thoughts.
Sentence fragments are more than okay as long as you know the rules of grammar.
I bought a bicycle light and helmet today. I've decided to be safe from now on. You never know what might happen (as illustrated by my recent driving mishap in which I hit a motorcyclist - he's okay).
Given the natural bent humans have for selfishness, why is it so much harder to love oneself than to love others?
Speaking of which, I think that loving someone while having very little hope that he (or she) will ever love you back helps you to understand God a little better.
It's amazing how God can answer the most fleeting of prayers almost immediately while seeming to remain silent and immovable in the face of others for YEARS.
I Capture the Castle by Dodie Smith is a MUST READ.
That is all for now. I think I was going to write something about bread, but I forget. Sigh.
