mountain top
i just want to state for the record that going to mountain top each year basically occupies the top 5 spots on the best experiences of my life. better than any show. better than any rehearsal. i was able to be involved in something greater than just me. i was able to make a permanent material and spiritual difference in someone's life. don't get me wrong. i love theatre. i love being part of it. however, up to this point, nothing has compared to sitting down with someone to talk about their life and experiences and at the same time give them a new porch or fix up their yard or just be there because they needed someone to talk to. mountain top is such a wonderful organization and experience and it is so hard to not go this year. my only consolation is that i know that after my church goes on this other trip to minnesota, they will know how big of a mistake they made. they will feel the drastic differences and hopefully, just hopefully, we can go back next year and hey, if we do return to the mountain, i promise i won't even say i told you so.
