"It has been three weeks since my last fish, on my honor, or may I be chopped up and made into soup."
Not really, but it has been three weeks since I sat in Brewers Two with a small drink and let my thoughts wander. I made the unfortunate mistake of parking on the street today. Oh well. The world spins on.
Being back at Brewers means I am back in Wisconsin, which means the dreaded doctor visits are done...for now. Current verdict is that I will return for a check up every six months for the next year or two. At that point, if nothing has changed, I will need a more in depth procedure. Until then, I get to enjoy my summer and press on toward the end of Bible school.
On my flight back to WI from my sister's nursing graduation in TX (proud of you, Mer!), I listened to a TED talk given by Anne Lamott. I'm not convinced of her spiritual grounding nor what she fully believes in, but something she said beaned me a good one: "A good name for God is 'Not Me'." You're right, Anne. Through the past while of oscillation, my heart has never been more convinced that God is present, loving, and active. Now that a lull of comfortable clarity has been achieved, I wonder if that is what this has all been about.
