When do we stop playing with rocks?

kids playing with rocks
Walking home from the gym i noticed two cups filled with rocks. Children where playing with rocks.

Kids playing with rocks (or sand, dirt, sticks, sea shells, etc) is one of the oldest ways children could use their imaginations.

As i walked another 30-40 feet past the cups, i turned and captured one last photo, inspired by the dilapidated basketball net.

 

When do we stop playing with rocks?

Maybe 2nd or 3rd grade?

Why?

Become irrationally spiritual

 

The video above is the longer version of the 45-second Twitter snippet i watched last night.

The takeaway for me is being irrational.

Become irrationally spiritual.

Your spirit at your place of worship (whatever form that takes), is most likely decent.

What is your spirit at work?

Is it contagious?

Critical to know that enthusiasm and lack of enthusiasm are both highly contagious.

Does your spirit soar irrationally?

Do you see yourself as irrationally spiritual?

To die knowing you loved and modeled love

Disney Speakers
The intentionality and fun in this photo is gold-medal worthy.

To die knowing you:

 

Loved and modeled love.

Surrendered and modeled surrender.

Forgave and modeled forgiveness.

Gave thanks and modeled thanksgiving.

Served and modeled serving.

Hoped and modeled hope.

To die knowing yours was a life lived intentionally is to die well.

Gone-forever opportunity

18th birthday
The deadline coincided with seeing our son reach 18. This photo marked that accomplishment, two days ago.

 

As i approach the final six months of the original 10-year plan, and get closer to six months left until June 8, 2019, the intensity of wanting to teach is increasing to a new level.

Why?

Well, and i’ve been thinking about this for a month, there’s more at stake and less to lose.

Once you’re dead and gone, the opportunity, in person, is gone forever.

It’s the “gone forever opportunity” that is fueling the desire to get more real – or go to the grave with unspoken ideas, wishes, hopes, love.
