I'm a little ticked off at myself today. I was so preoccupied by my bruised ego and pride that i missed our local emergent cohort meeting. we were to meet at workplay and watch a film about music and iraq. i really intended to go and am sorry i missed it. like i said, i'm ticked that i let something silly distract me from being part of something important to me. the child in my wife's post from yesterday may as well have been me. this is the first time in a long while that i have let someone else's opinion have such an influence on me. maybe it is because it is family, i really can't pinpoint it. it's not as if i haven't been through this before. i have had many conversations with folks about varying opinions on religious stuff. since the beginning of time it seems that i have always been a little "out there" and yet this time i am really struggling to shrug my shoulders and let it go. if it is true that pride goes before a fall (and i believe it definitely is) then i guess i better find a dose of humility in a hurry or the fall may be a long one. me being"right" just isn't that important.


ok, i didn't miss the cohort... it is next week! thanks ken.
