but that's not really why i'm here.

i'm finally owning up to the fact that i do way better when i'm writing.  better spiritually, better emotionally, better...motivationally.  so, here's to making my writing life a priority once more.

so, this year has taught me much about how i really don't know much of anything.  (not diggin on my self, just being honest)  wisdom must be gained; proverbs seems like a good place...

keep my commands and live, and my law as the apple of your eye.  bind then on your fingers; write them on the tablet of your heart.  say to wisdom, "you are my sister," and call understanding your nearest kin.

God's law...God's wisdom...the cheat codes of life that can only come from the One who programed it from the beginning.  shoot.  if that's not as valuable as my left eye, i don't know what is.  here's the trouble though - even if i did (in a whirlwind of extremist irrationality) give my left eye to gain this wisdom, i'd soon forsake it and learn other ways of form and function.  this is evidenced in my everyday life - the life in which i have both acess to this wisdom and TWO good eyes to view it with...

God knows this, i guess.  maybe that's why, in the very next verse, He says to bind these cheat codes to my very fingers.  like rings...or gloves...  or...  like a sharpie?  yes, i think (for me) the sharpie would work best.  a constant reminder that my life's work should be led by wisdom or i'm just setting myself on the road to frustration.

well, that's good to think on for the morning.  see you guys later.
