Inrospective

No, that’s not a song by some New Age band.

It is the mood that I am in this evening.

In case you didn’t know, I’m human, a sinner and often wonder whether I am on the right path.

I have to acknowledge that I am more likely to see and recall my shortcommings than I am my victories. I wish I could develop the “discipline of attention” to follow through on the things I promise to God, my family and myself, but alas … I’m just me.

I was struck by this scene on Tuesday morning..recurring reflections….

Some blogs I read to be entertained, some to learn “stuff” and some just because I like the publisher’s style. I also read some blogs to challenge myself to be better… different. To remind myself of the kind of man that deep down I know I should be, but am often too lazy or distracted to attain.

Blogs that challenge me to evaluate my essence.

Here is one of those blogs. Lisa has the ability and courage to tell stories from the center of her being.

No pretense, no shame…just the way it is.

That is a gift.

Her blog is called “Quiet Confidence” and today she posted Graceful Thoughts
