Leave your mark

Remember elementary and middle school? Remember those old wooden desks? (I'm telling on myself. I grew up in the eighties). I don't know about you but I've carved my name into a desk or two. Just to leave my mark. To make it known to the up and coming 4th graders that I was there.

Carving your name into a desk is no easy task. It takes a little time, some concentration, and a teacher who is momentarily distracted. But when all is said and done, I've left my mark.

That should be our aim in life. To leave a mark wherever we go. To make a lasting impression on the people we meet. It'll take some time but it will be worth it in the end.

I'm Baaaaacckk!

It's been a few weeks since I've blogged. It's not that I didn't have anything to say. On the contrary, I needed to stop saying so much and really take a good look at myself. As you know, that's never easy to do. I have had to reevaluate my goals, my dreams, my desires, etc.  I had to clear my head to do that. And now that it's done (at least for now), I'm back!

Look for the new updated blogs tomorrow!

In-N-Out

In-N-Out is one of the best burger joints I've ever been to. The problem: It's on the west coast. One of my college roommates was from California and she talked about it all the time. And for good reason. Did I mention how good their burgers are?

I've recently realized that In-N-Out is more than just a fast-food joint. It's a principle of life. Input = Output. What you give, you get. What goes around comes around. Blah, Blah, Blah...right?

We need to give this a little more thought. It's easy to complain about what's going wrong in your life. About who did what. Or to wonder why things are the way they are.

What you allow into your mind, spirit, and heart don't just sit there. Those things become a part of you and in turn, they are the things that leak out. They appear in our words and our actions.

So...don't like the output? Take a good look at what's going in?
