Ever feel really beat down?

That’s where I am at right now. Pretty much everything that could go wrong is going wrong. My job is on shakey ground… my website all the sudden is having mysterious problems… we’re still experiencing tremendous trials in financing the website… getting sick… not being able to sleep well… you name it. I’m trial weary ;)

Let’s just hope 2009 is better. That’s what I am praying for among other things.

Priest trying to fly across ocean on with party balloons?

This one certainly got my attention. I’m not quite sure what to think of the stunt.

This priest decided to get a bunch of helium filled party balloons and use them to float across the Atlantic ocean. I’m thinking to myself… this doesn’t sound like a good idea.

It’s one of those things that makes you think two different things…

1. What was this guy thinking?

2. On a serious note… What was he trying to really accomplish?

The event could be viewed as a tragedy… in both senses of the word. I just cannot figure it out.

Here is a link to the news piece. Body ID’d as priest who flew on party balloons.

Back from Chi-town

Janny and I had an eventful vacation in Chicago. We took in a lot of sights downtown and also caught a game at Wrigley Field. The Cubs beat the Pirates 8-5 on a sunny Sunday afternoon.

Always a highlight for me is Dunkin Donuts. I love the peanut donut. Yum.

Following Directions

It seems to be an epidemic. Following directions is a lost art apparently.

Part of following directions is paying attention. In many areas of life, you can really jack things up if you aren’t doing both of these.

Is it simply a product of laziness? Probably.

Unfortunately that is why so few artists and labels find a respectable level of success in our scene. When you “have got it all figured out” why bother with details. Just do it your way. Right?

That also lends itself to being ignorant to the real needs of people. Yeah, they need truth but they also need something to connect with. Something to relate to. Something to identify with. Something that brings “truth” to life for them.

But again, when “you’ve got it all figured out” you know what people need right? Too much talking, not enough listening… Some are too busy truly charting their own course to really stop and hear the Lord’s voice. It’s easy to convince yourself that you’re following the call when all you’re really doing is going through the motions. It’s easy to look the part and not full live it. That’s the easy standard in the eyes of man.
