Sunday morning

Tonight we're taking my mom to see Kris Kristofferson and Merle Haggard. I've listened to their music for years, since I was a little kid, but I've never seen either one of them live.

Today was the first Sunday of Lent, and it's put me in a pensive mood. I've been thinking about all the ways in which I've been blessed, usually through no effort of my own, but instead by the goodness and grace of people around me. I'm a very grateful man, but I have a lot of work to do. There are times, I think, when we all feel separated from the person we know we should be or the life we want to be living.

For whatever reason, this song always comes up at times like this.

Damn Bubs, that is a good song... Have a great time tonight.

I love you acknowledgment of grace and good but know that it is in you as well.

Lent is a time to be pensive perhaps but it is also a time of immense freedom if we can allow that. This however means getting out of our own way, which for me is a perpetual challenge.

Good song, Bubs.

You're a good egg, sir.

good morning friends. I'm actually into shoes and I was digging for the sake of that exact make. The prices seeking the shoes are around 230 bucks on every site. But for all I found this area selling them for half price. I exceptionally like those [url=http://www.shoesempire.com]prada sneakers[/url]. I will definetly order those. what is your opinion?
