Make sure Ninja Hobbit stays alert.
If you see Middle-Eastern looking horses conducting some sort of combat training out in your fields, call the FBI and skeedaddle over to Ramius' or your Dad's place.
Yeah I know...I'm a sucker for a pretty face and looong legs... truth be told, she chose me... no accounting for elvish taste...(I could say somethin' here but I don't want to jeopardize our "G" rating...)
My adventures in the Holy Wars were short lived...for that very reason...
That's exactly my story too.... And I'm sticking to it ;^)
Hopefully we've put that issue...uh...to bed?
Okay, I'm in. Now what the heck am I going to write about?
To me right now it is more important to learn to exhibit the fruits of the Spirit in my daily life, and know what that means and feels like in the nitty gritty of the daily grind. Winning an intellectual battle at the cost of losing my peace of mind would be a hollow victory indeed....
Well put RWRF.... If I may ramble a bit, I think your have put it closer to what I have wanted to express but have not been able to put into words before.
Your post clarifies what feels so foul to me about the relgious debate on FR... I personally have more questions than answers, but I know what feels fair, and I know what feels foul. The nastiness over there does not speak well to convince me I need to be more doctrinal.
I feel very spiritual, but not very doctrinal right now. I have been more devout in the past than I am now, and yet less Christian in my behavior. Righteous and judgmental, but less Christian. I just don't think there is anyone alive who really knows... Those that claim to and get angry at any question lose their credibility with me. Like my friend who is willing to argue to the point of anger with me while I tend my bleeding horse, that God is trying to send me a message by tripping my horse on the trail. She not only believes that God has a message in everything, she believes she personally understands the message fully. I actually stood in the middle of the trail and yelled at her "If God is trying to reach me, then he should know me well enough to not pick on my horse! - I love this horse, and right now, he needs help, now stop it!". They, like my wacked out friend, seem to suck the joy right out of it for me... and that is too bad, because it would be nice to discuss the questions.
It is all in the abstract, and I trust my gut more than those folk. And when I hear some of them, my gut twists into a knot. And not because I think they have got me.... because I think they have not got it at all.
Naw...I wish...I gooned up the first one...shootin' time is 0640...
18 hours and 12 minutes till bow season!!!!
Will do!
