Voluntary education

WordPress JSON error
This started happening about the same time we concluded the website hosting migration.

Voluntary education means exactly what it says.

You volunteer yourself to do work that isn’t required of you. You aren’t incented by money because there is none.

Effort implies that it will cause you to feel a real exertion.

Free, voluntary work.

Your spirit will never significantly develop without voluntary education. The same way your physical health will never significantly develop without voluntary effort.

We reap what we sow.

Sow little, reap little.

Sow big, reap big.

And early on, the seeds seem to take forever to sprout, and even longer to produce a harvest.

Blinding flash of the obvious?

Desmond Tutu quote
Conviction versus luke warm, apathetic? Which is better for you?

Are you a hypocrite?

Can you imagine a homophobic Heaven?

Can you?

No, right?

Blinding flash of the obvious?

Can any “Christian” imagine a homophobic Heaven?

There is no part of our journey for wasting

protocol
Retired our old American Flag yesterday. Only afterwards did i learn the flag should have been folded properly. Additionally, it is customary to say the Pledge of Allegiance or the National Anthem.

There is no part of our journey for wasting

In our youth and even as an older adult in our immaturity, we will inevitably waste time on things that had little to zero value.

A few of these “time-wasted” experiences are helpful.

They help us see how consistently doing good and decent daily habits and rituals propel us forward.

As Bob Dylan said, “He who is not busy being born, is busy dying.”

We did not rush the American Flag burning yesterday. While it isn’t called for, i kept my right hand over my heart until there was nothing left. This was time well wasted.

Tailgater grace

Disney University
Yesterday. Joy to the world is so appropriate. Every day. All day.

Tailgater grace?

Yes.

On the two-lane road behind Disney University, a driver began tailgating my car.

Younger versions of me had varying degrees of impatience, anger, retaliation, etc.

Those pangs are still mildly felt occasionally.

They surfaced for an instant yesterday and in an instant, they evaporated.

Pulled into the subdivision right-hand turning lane and let the tailgater pass.

Eased back onto the highway and life was instantly peaceful again.

The rewards are worth the (tireless) effort

Have heard rave reviews from Faculty about Tim. This is next week’s speaker benchmark opportunity; however, this one is a parents only event.

 

Prepping for adulthood can be draining and it can also be the opposite of draining.

Moving from adult-child mindset to adult-adult mindset.

The rewards are worth the (tireless) effort.
