Its always interesting to stumble upon moments when you recognize the symptoms of the passage of time. I'm not talking about bad knees, sore backs, or gray hair. I'm talking about mental and spiritual aging.
Twice over the past week, I facilitated parent meetings for my students. A few times I found myself teaching to people older than myself. I've even found that my leadership is now accepted by most people despite my youth. I mention these things only to point to the fact that this week made me feel old.
Spiritually old.
Because this week also made me feel very physically young. With a long weekend with little sleep, 3 consecutive days of climbing, and a little sunshine, I feel very youthful and energetic. I believe the proper term is "giddy."
Part of that could also be due to the continuing growth of our band, Misfit Plaid. This week we booked one show as an opening act for another big name band, and we've begun talking with a few other owners about dates for performances. When coupled with the arrival of a new sound system, things are looking up for us Misfits.
A few other positive tid-bits from this week:
-Found a pair of shoes for 8 bucks
-Found a sweet shirt on sale
-Passed my CDL written exam
-Had the best burger of my life....Goog's in Holland
-Wore flipflops for the first time in 2011
-Hung out with Andy and earned Prestige Mode in COD
There really aren't any prayer requests for ya'll this week. Just continue praying for me and my ministries as well as our church. This week I will be getting the final numbers for our middle school retreat and I'll be taking my CDL Driving Exam.
Feeling fine,
-B
