Thought for Today

BOXES
Holding – containing – the memories of our lives.
We miss them because we go in the side door.
Or someone steals them – or we’re not listening
to the reminders that surround us. Cars crash.
Relationships go another way. Life happens.
Death happens. We forget that not everyone
sees what we see the same way we see and
vice versa. But .... But.... But .... But from time
to time we hear a song in an elevator or a sermon
in our church – or we drive by a cemetery – or
the hearse has stopped in front of our house.

GOING TO HELL
He actually said to himself,
“The hell with this, God.
I'm going to hell.” And that
afternoon those words,
that feeling, was burning,
burning him in his soul.
That afternoon, God thought
about what that guy said to Him.
“Interesting!” It takes God, a bit
of time – to let things play out,
but not this time. God said to
that guy deliberately, “Wanna bet? “

ENOUGH
"Enough" is a good word.
“Enough already!”
“I’ve had enough!”
“Enough with the noise!”
"Enough!" is a good idea.
Listen to the eyes of
those around you or
their little protest sounds.
"Enough!" is a basic feeling.
Learning to be aware of
how we impact each other
teaches us to say, “Enough!”
“I’ve had enough!”
“Enough with the noise!”
