You’ll know when you finally know

Last night after dinner, from the Lake McDonald marina dock.

You’ll know when you finally know, you know?

What?

The meaning of life.

Son, enjoy your exploration.

Have some great anchors and continue to discover more.

Anchors like values, people, experiences, books, traditions, joy, gratitude, surrender, forgiveness…the list of good and decent things is long, and powerful.

All natural ingredients

A National Park, or nature in general, can be “Church”.

All natural ingredients.

  • Fresh air
  • Mountains
  • Lakes
  • Wildlife
  • Minimal human-made structures

The Church pews are rocks, logs, or the ground.

The sermon is whatever thoughts you have that aren’t easily available in “civilization”.

Happy birthday my friend

Disney Speaker
The closer you look, the more you see. Wild Goose Island and St Mary Lake.

Dear Glacier National Park, happy 109th birthday my friend.

Son, this Summer will be your final pre-college trips . Reflect on the personal growth you’ve experienced. Reflect on the natural beauty and magnificence you’ve witnessed.

Long after Mom and i are gone, Glacier will endure as your friend who will always welcome you back and make you feel at home.

RIP Jack Noel 2001

Glacier Park hikes
Grinnell Glacier overlook. Can’t help but wonder what my Dad would have thought of this place.

Glacier National Park. My Dad, Jack Noel, never visited.

RIP Jack Noel.

Please don’t live in the past and dwell on what was lost or could have been.

Live fully present now and think about traditions and intentionality.

Getting to a daily place where you can be fully present will be achieved only though the trials, errors, and triumphs of a lifetime of ordinary days.

First Sunday of Lent is hidden?

Hidden Mickey by jeff noel
Hidden Mickey at Virginia Falls in Glacier National Park. The purpose of Lent is often hidden too.

Yesterday was the first Sunday of Lent. Lent is really designed to give every Christian 40 days to prepare for the magnificence of the Holy Resurrection.

Does anyone know why “giving something up” for Lent became a thing?

Guessing the discomfort of abstaining from a comfortable habit is a sufficient trigger to remind yourself it is the Lenten season. Or maybe it has to do with Jesus not eating for 40 days – the suffering. Maybe it’s the discomfort suffering.
