Today was one of those days full of work- i'm gearing up for the "30 hour famine" with my students and there is never-ending planning...i'm not a natural planner, in fact i thrive in spontanaeity!
My wonderful job is sharpening me to become a better planner and i am learning so much in taking time to prepare, dream, and perfect my craft... what craft, you ask? planning a lesson, praying for my kids, teaching the Bible- not just a story or chapters and verses but actual meaning of the text, and just filling the "day to day" with complete intention- no moment wasted, but intention and thoroughness in everything i do.
I didn't leave the office till around 7:15, i didn't notice the time- i love these glimpses God gives me when the clock is not an impediment to my day- getting lost in work is no longer incredibly tiring and laborious but rather just another piece to my day where the intention of the task outweighs the logistics of time and clock work.
i also had to go into my retail job to sign some paperwork- 45 min away- potentially an annoying thing. i took a stop in the borders afterwards and sat on the floor and looked at books and talked with my friend on the phone. i am blessed enough to remain in constant, weekly and sometimes daily contact with some of my dearest friends...
hmmm that is all for today- very stream of conciousness
