that's a shame

There is this man in my pastors class that is really nice and sweet. He's a great guy in general, except for the fact that he believes that homosexuality is wrong because the Bible says so...


That made me sad... How can love be wrong?

December 3 – Moment. Pick one moment during which you felt most alive this year. Describe it in vivid detail (texture, smells, voices, noises, colors). (Author: Ali Edwards)

I can't really recall just one moment that I felt most alive this year. I have to think hard. My life was full of really great moments this year.

I would have to say that the moment that I felt most alive was when we were standing at the Grand Canyon as a family. Standing on the edge of great beauty was an amazing feeling. I remember being scared for my kids. They were so small up against this majestic background that could just swallow them up and feeling renewed and alive, smelling fresh air. Taking deep breaths and feeling my lungs fill up with the smell of dirt and rock and grasses. I remember hearing the birds cawing so loudly and sitting on the rock and feeling the coldness and hardness and smoothness of it all... It was a great moment...
