Our rights and the undeserving

Purchased six reams and had them cut in half, for a work project. Meanwhile, smiling from the multi-colored “Sun Rays” at the-photo’s top.

Dr. Robert Enright is a professor of educational psychology at the University of Wisconsin and president of the International Forgiveness Institute. He defines forgiveness as:

A willingness to abandon one’s right to resentment, negative judgment, and indifferent behavior toward one who unjustly injured us, while fostering the undeserved qualities of compassion, generosity, and even love toward him or her.

Son, remember, forgiveness sets you free. The devil tempts you with our rights and with undeserving people. Please consider pride and anxiety versus humility and goodness.

The wow factor. Aging poorly or aging well – both are full of surprises.

Live in surrender every moment of every new day

Returning the metal room key, i discovered a fellow Cast Member, Bonnie, and we have a good friend in common, Jeff Williford.

College buddy and his wife were visiting on a separate vacation – we met up at Glacier Park Lodge at 7:30am yesterday. They drove over from Whitefish.

 

A rational person can find peace by cultivating indifference to things outside of their control. – unknown

 

Yesterday’s (and this morning’s) weather is unseasonably cold.

The great news is the region is desperate for rain to combat multiple fires.

As i type this (and you’ll see tomorrow), there is snow on every peak around. Today is August 27, not January 27.

Live every day as if it’s your last (because it could be)

To say Apgar Village is deserted is an understatement. That lone person is me, on the Glacier webcam.

The final week of August leading into Labor Day weekend is one of the season’s busiest. That’s me waving in the rental car.

 

Live every day as if it’s your last (because it could be).

 

This statement, too, means nothing without intentional, over-focused effort.

It’s a big reason yesterday began the fourth Glacier National Park visit this Summer (2018).
