once

feel weird. starting watching the movie 'once', and that lasted 30 minutes. i think i might enjoy it, but movies always bring me on rabbit trails of thoughts, and unless i'm watching a movie with others, will take five or six sittings until i finish.

i'm in an awkward place, not necessarily a bad one. this morning i spent an hour on the sofa without movement. and i thought to myself, i could do this for a month...and then i went to the office.

i heard a preacher on sunday at westside kings make this statement "if you brag about being so busy that you have been neglecting taking the sabath off, it's as stupid as bragging about your porno video collection".

i have an entire wednesday as my sabbath tomorrow. my phone is off. my leisure will be contemplation and praise.

in terms of the rest of my day today, i was offered the job at the seed that i interviewed for. so monday i start in the community education role. i'm happy. that is my skill set, mobilizing youth.

and talked to Ron on the street corner for a while. he was going off on some delightful tangents. i found an article on him dating back from 10 years ago, have a read if you like: http://www.ffwdweekly.com/Issues/1999/0923/cover1.html

and about to light a couple candles and tell jesus that i love him.
