secrets to the "John 10:10" life.
laughter
affection
beauty
poignancy
triumph in best effort
being satisfied
enjoying a meal
frivolity

"I have come so that they may have life and have it more abundantly."

Leader weekend is my favorite weekend of the year.
I only did three things this weekend: laugh, talk about jesus, and sleep.
and that, friends, is life as it should be.

Laughter: who would win in a fight: Fayetteville YL version. kidney stones. spoons. stories. late night fun. 

Affection: hugs. love. handshakes. high fives. 

Beauty: worship. sunsets. friends. arkansas. 
  
Poignancy: mental snapshots. sunsets. rolling down hills. acting like children. sweet friends, sweet outdoors, sweet Lord.

Triumph in best effort: crazy car games on 540. spoons. Capernaum.

Satisfaction: new friends. old friends. 

Meal time: sonic. 4-H lady-talk. perpendicular angle parking. the "cleanse". 

Frivolity: adventuring home. locked roads. no roads. stopping to watch the sun set. 

what i learned this weekend: life matters.

life is not meant to be taken in a hurry.
people matter. moments matters.
everything else can wait.

i thought about writing many insightful, inspiring, serious stuff, but it all boils down to one thing: God made this life beautiful. The worst thing we could do is miss that.
