Lives of ease, strength, and that
I recall a motivational poster from juniour high, which said something like, "Pray not for an easy life, but for strength." I tried to link to my juniour high, but it's been repurposed with a different name, apparently, and the FaceBook alumni group has a lot of really dumb stuff in it. So we'll mention the place, but leave it at that for a change.
I just feel like I'm doing the leopard crawl through broken glass right now. Not that I'm asking for an easy life, just for more pre-existing calluses on my forearms, and knees, and shins, and hands. And foreskin, since we're just asking for the magical appearance of calluses. What backstory I'd need, to deserve them all, is left as an exercise for the reader.
But were I a praying person, I'd be putting "insight" at the top of the list for divine intervention. I'm just in one of those periods of trusting fewer and fewer of my own perceptions-- and can't decide if I should trust more of them or none at all.
If I know you, I'm probably missing you.
