I swear to you I am working on a real post where I really say something that I’ve really been thinking about. I simply haven’t had the time to finish the entry I started last Friday.
HOWEVER . . .
I ran by Scooters of Boise (my rockin’ scooter dealership) and picked up some accessories that I’ve needed, among them a balaclava - a Ninja mask. Then I walked in to my usual 5:30 meeting. This is a meeting where I had previously shared about having been named to our exclusive club, The Agents of Satan, by our Australian friend. (God, Thy will be done in his life. And bless him.)
I would sometimes walk in to that meeting holding my hands out, like I was holding a pistol, and say, “Agent of Satan! Put your hands on your head!”
Today it was, “Agent of Satan, Ninja squad!”
Then I just noticed that our friend has posted a new entry on some of us. He has noticed how long I’ve been sober which would indicate that he reads us. I know God loves him. And I pray that, if it is God’s will, his heart will soften a bit.

Love that Ninja look! I know what you mean, not having a chance to finish writing something to post. I’ve got a bit of my history I’m trying to post. It has been almost 2 weeks since I posted the last bit, and I’m trying to work on the next part. I need a chunk of time by myself to work on it, and that just isn’t happening. Very frustrating.

Agent of Satan? He is really too much.

sometimes in our journey, we travel very fast with quiet (or otherwise) determination. othertimes, it seems we are pedaling uphill and can not mark any distance. and still othertimes, it seems we are not moving at all. i have come to believe that all of these tempos are part of a bigger rhythm and are necessary parts to the overall recovery-athon. if you feel you have nothing “real” to post, then post what comes and don’t judge it. and if other’s judge, remember it is about them- don’t make it about you.
thank you for your earnestness and your willingness. when i let go of being the “most…anything” i started to heal.
