I had the most difficult time making the transition from 'details guy in the office' to 'spiritual mentor in the car' tonight. It wasn't until I'd vented a bit and traffic came to a near-halt before the Ridge Cut that I was able to start asking the hard questions.
On the way back to downtown, I pulled out the new Rent soundtrack. I forget to measure my life in midnights and cups of coffee. I think that is what's been wrong with me for months and months. I don't measure up to these ridiculous standards when I start believing that I should be something besides what I am. When I start subscribing to those standards I forget that I am what I am. I forget that that, as Amy Grant sang long ago, all I ever have to be is what God made me. Not that I should be satisfied with what I am...but (to be continued).
It's time to work. I am very grateful that Greyfriar's is so close.

hang in there. :)
