April 25th, 2017: Well, Already I am Rushed.

I can see that today is different.  I woke up and didn't do the reading first.  I pulled up my iPad (which is also my alarm since my trusty clock of many years went kaput) and checked the weather first.  Would I be walking to work or not today?

Not.  Raining.  And then onto checking the dates for the Falcon Ridge Folk Festival, which took one part of my brain to how I need to do the final on-line for the last day of the class I teach this summer, given the dates.  

Which led me to dip into Fb.

Which led me to some news stories.  








And, at some point, I "woke up" (after my body had been awake for awhile) and realized that I had not done my

reading first.

They were both on "Love."  Good.  Seeing - really seeing - and being present with others.  A good thing to read. 

Interesting Choice of Words...

Right now I am interested in the term I used above:

  "led."  

And that is another "wake up."

There is a huge difference in being "led" by Spirit and being "led" by Fb - or any other enticement.  Call me crazy, but I think the difference is in the "Spirit" part.  And, call me crazy again, but there is something powerful in my "choice" of what I "follow."  And, crazy as I go, discernment is key.

Without taking the time to "Listen," and "Discern," choices are - at the very least - less informed.  At the most, they are susceptible to not being choices at all.  

Ruh-Roh.  Time to Listen.  

Duh.  

And it's up to me to make a choice.
