Three days shy of two months.
My wife quietly slumbers on the couch and I lazily trapse through blog after blog. Looking at insights and ramblings. If I shared my feelings at the moment, they would leak out like an old faucet; one drip at a time. No better place exists than just to be.
I finished my ginormous freaking paper. You know, the one in which I chronicled my entire seminary education and distilled it into thirty pages? Yeah, that's the one. Now, I sit and wait. Something must come along sometime. Right now, I wait. For what? Whatever comes next. The greatest emotion in the world rests in its absence. No stress. No laughter. No anger. No worries. No excitement. Just peace. Existing to exist. When what continuously occurs strikes me as new, then I know I have ignored the simplest things. Existing supercedes essence. How I live bears more impact than the outcome.
Ode to Dr. McGee...
The craziest thing: I find I try to limit the use of 'verbs of being' as I blog. Count 'em: two!
