Simple Words For Livin' & A Classic

TRUTH.
I felt it specifically appropriate to add this in for today.
This is something with which I constantly fail, even in my greatest efforts. That's both the beauty and curse of being human, blessed with God's endearing grace and mercy; I will fail at this, but God never fails at anything. I was prompted to go seeking some encouragement in scripture form to post up at my desk after some happenings at work this morning; this is what I found, and it is now printed and hung directly in my immediate line of sight. I am confident this will serve as a daily reminder to me that I am a witness, daily, to the people that come in and go out of my office. I don't know the first thing about their lives outside this office past what we discuss while they're here, and I've found too often that the nature of my job fools me at times into falling into a colder frame of functioning than I intended.

Simply put, it's easy to become callous in my job, if I'm not careful. Guilty.

I don't know if you've noticed lately the tagline at the top of my blog, but I am in fact a kid on a journey, in a world that is not my home. I'm a guest here, and while I am, I need to be a light, not a burnt out bulb.

Just a little thought niblet for the day. I needed it, so maybe you did too. If not, pass it on :)

Oh, and it's a-stormin' down here in St. Clair County, so naturally, everything electric is on the fritz. We managed to still watch The Voice [in and out due to the storm]. In between reception times and afterwards, we opted for one of my favorite classics: Annie! -- And yes, the 1982 version. By the end of it, Sydni was singing along and dancing in the living room. Love love love.

P.S. - I also love checking out the "then-and-now" galleries for stars of those types of films. Check it out :)

I happen to be one of those people who loves storms [in moderation, of course]; It's time to call it an early night to go and lull away to the rain... *yawn.

Happy Tuesday :)
