Hello Everyone, today was a good day all the way around. It was only about 34 degrees this morning for the four mile run. I ran it in 41 minutes and a little change. For me that is a little over a ten minute mile and OK for a Clydesdale like me. I worked on a group project with some guys, ate lunch and then went to the Wednesday bible study that one of the guys is doing. Today there was only four of us for the study, but it was still good. Later in the day I typed a one page paper then went and swam 1.5 miles. I ate supper and then went and heard from Bobby Smith the Louisiana State Trooper that was shot in the face and blind.
It was like listening to a very good preacher, you knew what he was saying was the truth but it was very hard to hear. He talked about his incident, his struggles with being to prideful to ask for help and the things that helped him to get through his pain and new found darkness. He talked about our emotional cups and when they get too full who do we pour them out on? The people that love us the most, our family. And how we take our families for granted and even though we don't say it, how we love our jobs more than our families! We would never say that but many times we do say that with our actions and not our words. This is going to sound funny when I type it, but tonight a blind man may have helped me learn how to see. I hope that I don't forgot the words that I heard tonight. Tonya, Jamie and Jacob I love you.
