I get what you are saying but... If I can make a 2 minute clip of anyone sounding like a total di.. penis, then I really don't care what they have to say on much of anything.

I stopped listening to fat little bullies in middle school.

Then: 'cause he could get me out of that scary place called Hell.
Now: because he loves me not because he has to but because he wants to, me of all people.

Re: What is Justice?

Daniel — Mon, 22 Jun 2009 20:44:51 -0000

I love this.

I learned from a situation that started last Monday that forgiveness and consequences are not what I think they are. I learned that justice truly is mercy and that justice is not always what you want it to be or think it should be. Today was a beautiful day for me.

Re: The Shortest Sermon I’ve Ever Heard

It's the church my family attends. We just moved to Florida and are looking for a community we can gather with but so far have not found any place. We went nowhere last week and had on of the best Sundays in ages.

If you know any one in New Smyrna Beach, have them look us up. :)

Reminds me of last sunday at a church we will not attend any more. I have no idea what he talked about but I do remember feeling so sorry for the poor guy that was made into the object of everyones laughter. Anger. Sadness.

Honestly, I'm jealous. I have so many question and conversations that I want to have but there's no one to have them with around me.

Does FL count?

I told my wife about your post and she thought it didn't sound that fun. Guess women just don't get it :)

2 places I'd love to live: Grass Valley (drove through it a few times and thought it was just a great looking town) and Santa Cruz.

1. Porterville, CA (2 houses)
2. Phoenix, AZ
3. Springfield, IL (3 houses)

Between the last 2 houses in Springfield we lived at my dad's for a few months in Susanville, CA; In a camper at my mom's for a few months in New Smyrna Beach, FL; and in an extra bedroom at my mother-in-laws here in Springfield.

I am leaving next week to start new work and find a house for my family in Florida. Hopefully after a few years there we can head west, maybe to MT or CO or something.

Re: This Is How I Feel On Most Days

That was just what I needed this morning. I was kind of feeling sorry for myself instead of looking at the people around me.

Re: When Recession Is Good

Daniel — Sat, 07 Feb 2009 13:40:31 -0000

We're in a lease right now but for a good reason. We owed $6000 on our old car and the Trans went out for the second time. A friend is married to the sales mgr at a dealership in town, we are now able to get out of a 4 year loan in 3 years (3k trade, 3k included in the lease). Plus we don't have to worry about that old car breaking again. It seemed like every month there was a $500+ cost to get it running.

We'll turn in the car after 3 years and owe nothing (own nothing) but by then we'll have 0 debt save our house and a small student loan and will have saved a good bit of $ for a new car.

Just like the iPhone and iPod, normal people couldn't afford it. Normal people, however would drool over it.

Yes, I want one...

Would it be written only in the original languages though?

Love it! Perfect.

FALJO does not have the same ring to it that TULIP does though...

Re: The Still, Small Voice of Love

Daniel — Wed, 14 Jan 2009 21:35:31 -0000

I heard that voice last night, the last one that is. We were at the gas station on the way home and while pumping I noticed the person next to me was looking all over the place for something. I figured she had gone over what she had and was looking for some change. I'm just watching her and all the while a voice is saying, "See if she is ok." I finally listened and asked if she needed anything, thinking I could help her with a buck or 2, and she replied that she couldn't find her debit card. I said oh, and walked in to pay.

I paid and got in the car to leave and that same voice said, "I'll provide for you, provide for her." I ignored it so it said it louder. I'm sitting there thinking that we're running low on money, I'm unemployed, and I have things I need to do w/ my money. Finally I got some cash and went in to she what she owed, turns out that she had not pumped any yet, so I left a ten with the attendant and left.

My point is not to praise myself, though it felt really good :) but to say that that voice has always been there telling me It loves me, and cares for me and will provide, but I have tended to only hear the one that says, "what can you do, you are just a *small and simple man? You'll give her the 10 and then you will have to go without." I've so far *lived my life in vain.
