Sometimes we have to ask ourselves.... Are we trying to establish and build or are we trying to destroy? If you don't know the answer than you just discovered part of it; the other part lies in the conversations you have and more importantly the ones you don't have or never even attempted to have. These being my thoughts on making a connection and the soundness of relationships; a reflection on a question I posed to my parent. Do you know what’s important to me? Of course it would not be worthy or of any value (and certainly not fair) if I could not first answer my own ponderings. The idea is that if my heart has been trained to listen to what’s important to you and your future thoughts then and only then can I pose my questions about my wonderings of the faithfulness of someone’s heart.
As I stated yesterday I went for a walk and enjoyable it was. It was windy and I loved it. 70 degrees and a breeze didn't make for a bad time outdoors at all. Needless to say it brought yesterday's earlier agitation (read totally perturbed) to a simmer and provided an interesting perspective. I relished the blowing air and thought about my time in college. It was great and I got through it with out too much drama or incident (with the exception of a few memorables, which is for another day another post). That being said, I didn't drink, smoke or experiment with drugs. I don't say that as some type of badge of honor because that's not the case at all. But it was apparent, that somewhere along the way I truly believed what my grandparents told me growing up about character, honor, and integrity. However, the older I get I've grown wary or maybe even cynical at what maybe appears to be watered-down standards we've immersed ourselves in society. Notice I say ...
