I read this beautiful blog post tonight, which ended with following list.

Suggestions for the complicated:

1. Quit caring so much. The world does not depend on you getting the right answer to life’s questions. Answers often come when we learn to wait patiently for them.

2. Quit comparison shopping. Truth is not a commodity. You don’t want the “better” one. You want the right one.

3. Quit thinking so much. If thinking would solve the problem and make things less complicated, you’d be through by now.

4. Look for beauty. Beauty doesn’t make us think so much as it makes the heart a better listener.

5. Take some time off – from as much as you can.

6. Get some sleep.

7. Give away money. At least someone will benefit by this discipline.

8. Sing (beautiful things). The part of your brain that sings is much more closely wired to your heart than the part that thinks.

9. Ride a bus. Worked for C.S. Lewis…

10. Go inside a Church. Worked for Kallistos Ware…

LIKE!

Yes, I like that too!
I think way too many of my friends--and Christian friends at that--focus on the negative in the world. I like to come back to the verse: The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full. John 10:10
Becoming a Christian should not make us upset or worried, rather becoming a Christian should free us to ENJOY ABUNDANT LIFE!
Gob blesses us so richly, we need to sit back, thank him, and enjoy life.

Just listened to Ted Nugent for the first time. He has a positive outlook on America, he said the world s..ks but America s..ks less. He seemed very optimistic about the American spirit. I wish he would run for president.
