Silver Frisbees

Welcome welcome! I hope you have all had an excellent day.

My day has been filled with all sorts of adventures, from pianos to packing, disc golf to lake-walking, fun adventures down back roads, and in general just a good day.

Sometimes exploring can be the greatest thing in the world; the trees green and leaves intertwining with one another, dirt paths and dirty trees fallen along the rocks...everything is so pretty. And it gives you a lot of time to think. It's quiet in the woods, aside from the buzzing of bugs and the creaking of branches...but it's a good kind of noise. Relaxing. Peaceful. Natural.

Today, as I was exploring, I was thinking about how important quiet time is. If you don't take a few moments, just to yourself, to be silent, and be thoughtful, sometimes you can get so caught up in the day-to-day stuff that you forget why you are moving forward. Things keep hitting you like one of those baseball machines that just keeps shooting, until you can hit.

Sometimes, you need to take a minute before you swing again. A time for reflection and renewal, otherwise your arms get sore. Your arms get sore, and your eyes get blurry, and you begin missing more than you are hitting. And that's when you know you need to stop.

I needed a break. I was swinging aimlessly, but nothing was connecting. Days were flying at me faster than I could handle, but they each felt like ten thousand years of confusion. If you are feeling lost, or tired, or confused, or overwhelmed...

Take that quiet time. Take a minute just to breathe in, breathe out, and pray. Pray that you focus on what matters, not what doesn't. That you take the little things as they come, the road bumps, and move forward. Keep moving forward. It's all we've got.

So I hope you aren't tired and weary, but if you are, I hope you find time to take a moment just to think and pray. And I hope you fly high, you silver frisbees. Have a fabulous rest of your evening.
