one man's trivia is another man's wisdom

Things I am very bad at:
-Showing up at weddings (sorry to all those whose weddings I've missed. Trust me, it'll be hard to get me to even my own someday...)
-Living a disciplined life.
-running (I hate it. so much.)
-math (kind of. there was a time that I was very good at math, I don't know what's happenned...)
-driving. dude. seriously. there is a reason I don't own a car.
-keeping in touch with people... consistently. (I am working on this one.)
-not making jokes or laughing when I feel awkward
-moving on... I'm kind of a dweller
-understanding politics on my own (I need good teachers)
-being a grown-up. WIERD.
-dealing with other's inconsistency. which is quite hypocritcal of me, I do realize.
-remembering that I want to have pictures of things.


... yeah. hahaha. I've got my faults. good thing there's this little thing called grace in my life.
I've just been thinking a lot lately about some of things and how they've been used in my life to teach me different lessons. It constantly amazes me how very good friends can be okay with me flaking out (okay, not entirely flaking out, there usually is a reason... which is usually YouthWorks) on their weddings- I mean, that's a huge day to miss. I'm amazed at the love they show me. I also recently got in a car accident... in a company vehicle. That sucked, but again, I found grace in the midst of it.
I think if I was good at everything... or even good at lots of things, I'd miss out on some of the most amazing things in life- being offered mercy, grace and compassion by the people around me.
Thank you friends for your love.
