Better is one day

"Better is one day in your courts, better is one day in your house, better is one day in your courts than thousands elsewhere."

So true. I'd rather be in the presence of God than anywhere else that could possibly exist. If you are one of those people who think, God? right! Gimmie a break! Then I feel sorry for you. You have no idea how extraordinary it is. Overwhelming sense that all is right, all is good, nothing can harm you. Why can't you see him? He's right there!! His spirit is speaking! Listen you fool.

I guess what I've heard is true.

A wise man can learn from a fool, but a fool can learn nothing from the wise.

Today I ran Otter Trail.

I ran at a normal pace and felt the burn in my butt. It made the run harder, but I smiled the whole time. I just know this is working.
What's working? Trying to make your butt smaller?
Well yeah, that...but mostly I want to condition myself. I want to enter a real race someday. For some reason finding a cure for breast cancer is on my mind. I don't know why...I don't know anyone in my family or friends circle with breast cancer. Yet, it strikes a cord with me. Maybe it's just the fact that it can attack any woman at any time that scares me. It threatens to take away our mothers, daughters, sisters, spouses.

Okay I have to go shower now. Man, it's so hot already!

I'll be at the cabin this weekend. Hopefully Denise will want to go for a run around the lake with me.
