Comings and Goings

As the predictions for the first snowfall are being made here in Mammoth, it's time think about comings and goings. Before we know it the winter season will be in full swing and we will find out who's coming back and who has moved on to different places in thier lives. And with Mammoth being a international community it is a truly intresting to see where people have ended up. And for my self I still figuring out where I should be, should I stay or should I go. And if I go where I will end up? I don't know yet, but I'm pretty sure if I do stay I'll be moving on after June closes if not before then. And then there's also the news of one of my favorite people in Mammoth is going to be moving on in a few months, where she will be going, is still to be determined yet. My thoughts on this matter, just wait for, I'm not ready to say goodbye quite yet. We will see what happens. Then on the coming to Mammoth front, I just heard that one of my residents from my Healy Hieghts Housing project is coming to Mammoth for the winter, which is way cool. It's going to be intresting winter to say the least.

And then there's sometimes

When you start asking about bunch of questions, sometimes you get answers and sometimes you don't. So instead of a long rambling post here are a few questions and thoughts I've been thinking about during this summer.

Why I am still in Mammoth? and not moving half way across the country again?

What countries would I have to visit to find all the missing tuberware containers from my house?

Summer is too short around here.

Why does your plans never seem to work out, unless they are God's plans. And even then they never make much sense until the season passes.

Why I haven't gotten back to working in baseball?

For that matter, what whould happen if I devoted a couple of months to nothing but writing? or at least just a few hours everyday.

Where is going to be my next destination and when will it happen?

Why do relationships with girls make no sense at times?

And how did I end falling for a girl that's not a christian, but is totally cool?

And why is waiting so tough to do at times?

Is there any other reason than to live than for christ?

These are a few a question and thoughts I've had over the summer.

And here's one that in some ways answers a few of them.


By waiting you will see my grace and glory shine thought the land.

If that's the case then I'll wait for the miracle to unfold. It will be awesome to see it happen.
