Having been on vacation for two weeks, you’d think my brain would be emptied of superfluous junk and filled with really cool ideas.
You’d think.
Of course, its not.
The best I can manage is the way that God used the time away to allow me to contemplate what’s really important in life, specifically people over material possessions. I was around family for most of the two weeks, and the highlight of the trip was Karen showing me around where she used to live while she worked on her undergrad. Having sights to put with the stories of the wonderful memories she narrates to me from those years was a great gift from her to me. You cannot truly appreciate the act of the play you currently watch, obviously, without seeing the act before, and this was the first time that I’ve seen the scenery to go with that part of her story.
As soon as I get the opportunity, I’ve made a promise to return the favor to her.
I’m getting back into a work groove again (groan), and I did manage to write down some great and (hopefully) inspired ideas while traveling. Hopefully some of those will materialize soon. In the meantime, I’ll remain in a perpetual state of pondering “what next,” and hopefully something worth reading will appear here under the lights in a week or so.
Until then, here’s to the end of summer. Exit stage left…
