So as I sat under that tree waiting for my wife, and later at dinner after going into Borders where I bought one book, I thought about what I learned this week.
From the young lady who checked me out at Borders who commented on my choice "The Story," I realized most people have the wrong impression about the Good Book and think it is a collection of stories. It is a collection of writings that continue the same story and it just happens to be historically accurate and scientifically accurate as well, according to the Smithsonian.
I realized that for many in America a life of faith is a spectator sport. Hmmm... that has got me to thinking about the commandment to be fruitful and multiply, kind of hard to do with the whole team participating.
Though shall not judge should actually say though shall not condemn. Well enough preaching.
I also realized that there are still people and companies who do the right thing, like tonight at dinner they took off almost fifty percent of our ticket so I gave the server a gravity of more than fifty percent and still came out ahead by five dollars. Now neither of us asked for those blessings, but all involved walked away forever changed, including those who listened to our numerous exchanges.
