a work in progress

The last week has been really interesting in several ways first the weather has been ...well the weather. typical up today and down the next day; first i thought we were in for a spell of rather favorable weather but just on Saturday it snowed like crazy all night and the weather since then has been just under-10 making the small holidays we've had to be largely spent indoors (not that I'm ungrateful for the break).
The big lesson in this holiday is that mental exhaustion beats physical exhaustion hands down don't ever let your self get mentally down. the most fatal errors come not from an exhausted body, but from an exhausted mind. ever gotten to the point where you cant stand the sight of the thing that normally constitutes your livelihood? i bet at that point you wake up chronically tired every day except the weekends. although sometimes you can push through the exhaustion barrier with effort, you should be able to know when your productivity has been hit  hard. when you get there, just take a break. believe me, you'll do both yourself and those around you a huge favor by taking a break watch a movie in you are into that sorta stuff. Travel, a change of environment does wonders for the exhausted mind (now taking a vacation has new meaning? lol), as much as you can, sing unto the lord it has the effect of causing you to burst into smiles (at least it has that effect on me) and giving you the lift you need;

At this point i know I'm rested and ready to face the new semester
There is sooo much in you that the world needs to see in you, there are things that come to you easier than others, certain things that you find very much pleasure in, and really don't care care whether you are appreciated doing them or not. the bible says

Do you see a person who is efficient in his work? He will serve kings. He will not serve unknown people. prov 22 vs 29.
its back to the trenches Monday. wake up each day as if on purpose. Make it count!
lots of love
