Was i supposed to feel compassion and pity?

Sunset last night from hotel room.

 

Was i supposed to feel compassion and pity?

Asked a worker yesterday, “How’s life been treating you?”

Him: With a heavy sigh, “I’m working two jobs.”

Me: “Sorry to hear that. Hang in there.”

The long walk home (to the Omni) last night i rethought the conversation and wished i would have asked, “How many hours are you working?”

Why?

Because a gut feeling says the number of hours i spend working is equal to or greater than his combined two-jobs total.

He never asked, “So what about you?”

i pray especially focused prayers for people who feel like a victim. The prayers revolve around them discovering gratitude as a weapon to fight against “feeling sorry for themselves”.

Additionally, the prayers focus on “the victims” being more aware and empathetic to everyone they encounter. Why? It’s helped me over the course of my life and i am convinced it will help almost anyone.

Can you count your major blessings?

Brand new pool pump is not supposed to leak, and it didn’t for the first few weeks.

 

Can you count your major blessings?

One of the often misused blessings is an ability to quickly put things into perspective.

Discovered our recently replaced pool pump motor is leaking.

This now becomes another thing on the list of things needing attention.

Attention requires time.

Too many things (that shouldn’t need attention) needing attention can derail our daily routine.

Derailed daily routines are what lead to excuses, unhealthy compromise, and stress.

And so i quickly understand that this is a first-world issue.

Christmas wins with presents, Easter wins with purpose

Donald Duck egg at Epcot
Lunch in Japan yesterday. Easter egg?

 

Christmas means nothing without Easter.

Yesterday’s message during the 4th Sunday in Lent was how Jesus questioned what was happening.

Was he really supposed to walk right into his certain death?

Like we question.

And questioning can lead to doubt.

Doubt to fear.

Fear to resistance.
