"I Just Stood There Whistling 'There Goes the Bride' as She Walked Out the Door..."

This year, the Episcopal Youth Retreat was just before Lent. As one of our activities, all of us were given a red ribbon and a yellow ribbon. On the yellow ribbon, we were to write a quality of Jesus' that we would like to try to emulate during the Lenten season. I put 'listening to people'; I've told this to quite a few folks now, who've asked.

On the red ribbon, we were to write a sin in us that we wanted to try to overcome. Nobody's asked about my sin.

It was arrogance. And I really, really don't think I'm overcoming it, I don't think so at all. I think it's just getting worse.

Also, my body has stopped working right.

since this a compliment-deflection-free journal, i won't say 'no, not really' -- but i will say 'i think you're loveliness. take that.'
