Is There Any Place Like It?

Ever go on vacation and even though you’re relaxing and enjoying yourself, you still have a place inside you that yearns to be home again?

Not everyone experiences it, but many do.

Waking up in your own bed is a nice feeling.  There’s a comfort and familiarity that accompany the daily routine that’s about to begin.

This is all based on the assumption that you’re living in the home that is building you.

Bothered Not Bored

The other night I told our son, “I’m bothered, but not bored.”

I’m bothered by the work load I put on myself.  Career, home, church, gym, home, family, retirement.

I’m not bored by any of it though.

Why?

Because I love it.  None of it feels like work.  So, being bored is the last thing on my mind.

Except for one small detail, and I must confess, “I’m bored with being bothered!”

North, To Alaska?

North, to Alaska? Soon. But not today.

Today, we’ll enjoy the warm Central Florida sunshine and a high temperature of 86 degrees.

Yesterday, we visited the Walt Disney World Resort’s Magic Kingdom.

Today starts with Church, where my wife and I will lead Children’s Liturgy of the Word for our Church’s elementary school children.  Then I have a meeting with a writer.

Then south, back home.  Enjoy your day.  And keep an eye on the future.  It’s just around the corner, a little north of today.
