kook

A person regarded as strange, eccentric, or crazy: crackpot, crazy, eccentric, lunatic. Informal crank, loon, loony. Slang cuckoo, ding-a-ling, dingbat, nut, screwball, weirdie, weirdo.

last night i was sitting in my living room typing up something on the computer when a roommate came in the room. she laid down and just smiled so i smiled back and asked what was up. she said something to the effect that i'm funny. who knew. then she told me i'm a kook. i laughed a lot. evidentally there's been a significant difference in my personality since i arrived in chi-town. anna said that she doesn't think it's insanity but more a letting go. so there's that little tid bit.


"So let's not allow ourselves to get fatigued doing good. At the right time we will harvest a good crop if we don't give up, or quit. Right now, therefore, every time we get the chance, let us work for the benefit of all, starting with the people closest to us in the community of faith." Galatians 6:9&10 (the Message)

don't give up. keep doing good. isn't it strange how it's often easier to do good to those outside the community of faith. pride is a nasty little bugger. it makes us think that we have rights. that we deserve something. isn't that what causes fights and quarrels among us. something good to think about.


this morning i gave my roommate jenny a guided tour of our porch. often when you look out across the city you can see forever. it reminded me of the smoky mountains.


how did i get so blessed. why did God choose me. what a lucky girl am i.
