Lately, I have fallen to the allure of Facebook. Unfortunately, there is not much to post in that particular medium. Actually, I have really felt burnt since my October posting regarding my feelings about my current Job position.
I can't say that anything has really changed on that front.
I really enjoyed having breakfast with Rick and George. Mike R. Shull filled in (again) for the absent Todd. I missed seeing Todd, but, what are the odds that Mike R. Shull would be there again? Truly, a classic moment.
Even though the food was good, the conversation was better. And, I was given a really good book recommendation: The Shack. I was warned that the first 80 pages was rough, but it was really good. It messes with you a bit.
The Shack is a metaphor for that place in your life that you just can't get past.
I have several of those in my life. I bet you do too.
But the neatest part of the book was a conviction that the kind of relationship that I am seeking with God, might not be the kind that He (?...read the book) wants with me. There is a lot about judgement and forgiveness that hit me square between the eyes. Definitely gives you a different way of thinking about love.
So, I hope all of you (well, both of you) had a wonderful Christmas. And, best of wishes for a Happy New Year!

Cool. I'm glad you liked The Shack. I also like nicknaming Rick Shull "Mike".
Why the heck was Mike Krump in my memory??? Ctrl-Alt-Del.
"Crump." And how come I don't get invited to these brunches? I think my wife read the shack. I personally read old Dave Barry columns.
Next year we can invite Crump and find a stand-in for him, too.
