I live for God. I laugh for Him too. Find steadfast joy in Him.

Psalms 126:1-3
"When the LORD restored the fortunes of Zion, we were like those who dreamed. Our mouths were filled with laughter, our tongues with songs of joy. Then it was said among the nations, 'The LORD has done great things for them.' The LORD has done great things for us, and we are filled with joy."

--> We have found freedom in God as well. We can live out the joy depicted in this verse!

Me vs An Old Lady & 'My' Tree

Okay. So I hit the trails at Lemoine's Point today. Saw a tree. Saw a tree I really really wanted to climb. Even though I'm 24! I had my mind set on it. I hadn't seen a person in like an hour. I moved towards it then heard the telltale 'swish swish' of a pantsuit. You know the sound. I stepped back. An old lady was coming. I took a few random pictures of the shore line while she passed me. I was skillful. I was totally embarrassed. That was just silly... what I should have been embarrassed about came after, but thankfully there was no one else around then. So, victory abounded and the lady moved along. I took a picture of the tree, then started up. Wasn't thinking super clearly though. It's been a long time since I successfully climbed a tree (Mr. Si is determined that I climb this super difficult other one, but I've failed on a number of occasions). I got up in a crazy upside down manner. I enjoyed the climb and time. Then, it was time to get down. Wow, that was difficult. Too far to jump it. Nothing to hold onto when you're higher up. Funny times. I just kept thinking about the old lady and how she missed a hilarious show. Another time - it'll definitely happen again, except I'll be a teensy bit better... hopefully...
