Empathy

It has been a busy evening of posting blogs! I just posted about a project I have been involved with this summer. Take a moment to check out the link below.

Out of the Closet

So it is officially over. The Harry Potter saga that is. I actually just finished watching the last film, 'The Deathly Hallows: Part 2." It was amazing of course! I caught myself clapping at the end of the film along with my fellow Harry Potter fans. I quickly realized that even though there are two parts to this movie, the makers of the film still had to condense things a bit. Dang it! Am I the only movie goer who always wants more of the story? Why must it end??!! I guess if it never ended, one would not have to return to reality. I'm pretty sure most Christians are happy that this trip down sorcery lane has finally come to an end. As for me, I'm ready for more!

Day 30: Celebrate With a Kick!!

It's time to celebrate a small milestone. I have reached day 30 with P90X!! Wasn't sure at first how far I was going to make it. When people say that this program is hard, they are not joking. I have done many challenging things in my lifetime (i.e. Army basic training), but this almost doesn't compare. I think mostly because I am a bit older than I was when I joined the military. The body doesn't respond to physical activity like it did in my late teens and early twenties. The thing that has remained the same and/or has gotten better over the years is my will. Without that, I don't think that I would have the strength to get through most things. I'm competitive by nature, so that doesn't hurt either when trying to accomplish something.
