Pray the Psalms
picked it up again 3 years ago

I have been slacking the last months and started up this week again. man, is this great! it is pure power and helps me like nothing else to connect to god and get his purpose into my life. i couldn’t be a bigger fan of this!

tell stories
started with the kids 3 years ago

I did some more on this by starting to write a book. man, that really challenges me to think through a story before starting. I also read some books around it: writing a damn good novel; hero with a thousand faces; the art of dramatic writing. this all was very challenging and enlightening. there needs to be conflict, growth, change, progression.

the place I originally started was telling the kids stories before bed. that was both fun and surprising. it ended up being a real bonding time, and helped me be more vivid and specific in storytelling. great stuff.

read less (read all 2 entries…)
it ain't happening 3 years ago

wow, this has not worked at all. i wonder if it is still a worthy goal. there is so much to learn, so much to know, and it is plain exciting. the only problem is finding the time and sometimes being in the never-enough mode. but reading a book (or listening to one) is still one of life’s high-points. need to reconsider this goal.
