on calvin and hobbes, age and twitter.
I got this from Digg (I think it’s front page?), but anyhow I really liked it. Probably cause I really like Calvin and Hobbes. Someone commented on the fact that ‘a kid like Calvin can grow up and be OK’ gives him hope. I thought that was funny =) I wonder if he married Susie. Probably.
It’s weird to see this picture because I don’t ever expect Calvin to “grow up.” Holey Moley.. and I guess, in many ways I feel similarly. Growing up is a crazy thing. This year, more than any, I’ve thought “Wow I’m 23…when did that happen?” It’s weird hearing about my friends getting married/engaged. It’s weird being asked when I’m getting engaged/married. (I get to be part of a wedding party soon and I’m super excited about that! Tangent). It’s weird having to make choices about career, choices about life, choices that have such visible impact..
Hmmm, at the same time, I’m also thankful for the things that haven’t changed. God is the same yesterday, today and forever. God had plans for me and will continue to. My parents are still excited to pray with me. Kat is still coool and extremely crazy. I can still go to Jeff when I don’t understand relationship stuff. Living Water is still very much about Jesus..
Hm, my blogging is very choppy today. Not sure why. Maybe my tired mind can only think in short sentences. =(
Anyways, this verse came to mind — ”from the rising of the sun to the place where it sets, the name of the LORD is to be praised.” I hope that would be my life. Wherever the sun is in my life — rising, mid-day, setting, eclipse, whatever — that I would be praising the Lord. If you are the praising the Lord, you are an extremely blessed person, as the implications of that first part are tremendous! Maybe for another day. It’s super late! Good night world.
Oh! I decided to try out twitter again. I don’t really know what to do with it. But you can “follow” (?) me here. I feel like a fob dad trying to learn about new technology..
