I have time to think again because it is spring break. Actually, that sentence was worthy of additional capitalization.
I have time to think again because it is Spring Break.
Much better.
OH LIFE! LIFE LIFE LIFE!
I got my computer fixed, I haven't had access to a reliable computer for like sixth or so months now. This is a mixed blessing because now I have internet access, but I also have internet access.
I can play games again. But I can waste time again.
I can surf the internet at pretty insane speeds compared to my phone, which is refreshing. But I also have the lure and lull of mind-numbing browsing.
STOP (hammer time) (collaborate and listen) (drop and roll)
I still get random things stuck in my head that won't leave until I write them down. BLRKjeksljrlkasdjflkasjdfkjkdeeeeaxcccvvvvvvvv
Its amazing how exciting simple things can be. I love it. I love the small things. God does some of the best work on the small scale. I am glad that I have opened my eyes to those small works and wonders.
I recently started working in the tech and sound booth at church. Last Wednesday I was approached to assist with the worship and scriptures on screen.
The responsibility is actually heavier than one would first assume. Not only do I have to be ultra focused in order to properly flip back and forth between lyrics, but different singers sing songs differently. Sometimes someone will jump around and you have to be able to jump with them.
As an obsessive compulsive orderer I always notice when something is misspelled on the projector, or the projectionist is behind on transitioning slides.
Sunday was my first time observing the program, how it works, how to operate it, all the commands and functions etc. And I operated it by myself on the following Wednesday. It was actually kind of a rush to be able to do it all that way. I didn't make any major flub ups or anything like that, so I was rather excited and proud.
I have numerous old man habits. I am a collector of odds and ends. I go to bed early. I sleep a lot and wake up early. I like breakfast. I have a grumpy facade. I am an old man.
What does it mean to be a person? People are pretty imperfect. Occasionally you meet someone who has a genuine intellect and authentic personality. But a lot of the time you just get caricatures and effigies.
Today while washing a dish I thought about how I consider myself to be an all-around developed person. I have stability emotionally, mentally, physically, spiritually, and socially. (I think social balance is worth adding).
There are not an abundance of people who could possibly make that claim.
Now that I look back at it, I want to take 'social' out of the equation so I can make an avatar the last airbender analogy.
Emotional stability is fire.
Mental stability is water.
Physical stability is earth.
Spiritual stability is air.
That makes me the Avatar.
Don't ask me which nation I am any more, (fire), because I am the avatar.
Maybe social balance is like being a non-bender...
ok. so the analogy isn't perfect.
Here's a secret that I try to tell everyone, but no one seems to listen.
If you want to feel good about yourself (physically, emotionally, blah blah)...
1.) Drink water.
2.) Exercise.
3.) Sleep.
Ironically, I don't always do these things myself. But I mean it when I say it, those things can change. your. life.
It is amazing how simple it is to waste a lot of time. I needed to pass about 6 or so hours until everyone got back from work. Done. Easy.
Play games, make food, watch tv, check out Etsy, lollygag on Facebook. Game over man, game over.
