Quotes...

"Spirituality is not to be learned in flight from the world, by fleeing from things to a place of solitude; rather, you must learn to maintain an inner solitude regardless of where you are or who you are with. You must learn to penetrate things and find God there." - Meister Eckhart -

Rest

Oh boy.

What a week it has been...

Wed -- Frontline Core get-together went 'til 12:00am. Good times, good times. I think everyone at the get-together didn't want it to end - knowing that one of us will not be at the next get-together. and the next. and the next...

Thu -- Laura's GoodLuck&HaveFunInPhilly! dinner. Our friend Laura's moving to Philidelphia - to write another chapter of her young life. GoodLuck, Laura!

Fri -- Harrison's BelatedBirthdayParty & The Merritts' GoodLuck&HaveFunInDallas! dinner. I think we may all have stayed at Miriam's house until 11:00pm. I think. None of us wanted to leave. Cherish every minute with our friends...

Sat -- SoAfricaMissionTeamReportNight. Boo-yah!
The report night was grrreat! I felt myself gettin' emotional while watching one of their video presentations. Oh... SoAfrica... how I want to see thee...
Great times with great friends, and then some. Noone wanted to walk away from this night either.

Sat (round 2) -- Harrison'sBelatedBirthdayRound2 with some great friends at BJ's. The food? .....awww...it's aight.
But the company. Grrreat!
For the first time I got to experience what it's like when my friend Connie consumes a lil' bit of alcohol. Whoo-yi!
Not sure whether that was the alcohol or just excitement from being with friends (I'm sure that was the alcohol), but she was crrrrrrrrrrrrrazy! AND that's why we all love Connie!

Sun -- The usual crazy day at NewSong North OC - setup | service | brainstorm | hangout | meeting | goodbyes | breakdown.

Sun (round 2) -- Symphonic Orchestra at Chapman University. A wonderful friend of mine is in an orchestra! Can you believe it? Yeah, me neither.
Well, she's been invited to perform with another orchestra. I think.
And she invited me to come watch! .....err.... listen.
It was grrreat!

Sun (round 3) -- Thailand Mission Team's GreatReportNight! Celebration & Travis' HaveFunInThailandAndWatchOutForLadyBoysWhileLookingForABeautifulFutureWife! dinner.
I must say, our "Experience the Journey" (it's a report night, but we really wanted to get away from the whole "report night" feel / theme, so we called ours, "Experience the Journey") was a BIG success!
And now Travis is moving to Bangkok, Thailand to write another chapter in his young life.
Good Luck, Travis!

So, yeah.
It's been a crazy busy week!
And I was sick all week... and am still sick.

Normally I'm OK with being on the GO.
But not when I'm sick.
Crazy thing is, I was sick last week. Got better. And got sick again on Tuesday of this week. And I just can't seem to shake it off this time.
Uuuuuuuuuuuuugh! Hate being sick!!!
