Dear Blog reader,

Before I go and regard the DNA personality thing as ‘old’ if you really really want to (as it’ll take some time), you can assess me!

and do be nice and let me know/see your results if you are going to do it.

Remember the Johari Window? If you haven’t done either of those and you’re bored… well, I think you get the hint.

*read the above Laura!
(Anyone else is welcome to do them too, but if you don’t know me well it’s probably going to be a waste of your time, of course if you are bored it’s not going to matter in the slightest and you will do it and send me the results)

Respectfully yours,
Inventor

“The weather is fantastic and Im having a gay old time!”

This just about sums it up! It’s beautiful outside.
Oh no, of course I’m not wagging uni…

“As you do not know the path of the wind, or how the body is formed in a mother’s womb, so you cannot understand the work of God, the Maker of all things. ”- Ecclesiastes 11:5

It’s satisfying coming across verses that aren’t cliche catchphrases of the Christian world. I really like this one. We don’t know what God has in store for us but we can know that he is marvelous and unchanging and cannot act contrary to who he is.

It’s truly amazing when something eventuates when you would’ve settled for far less.

Last night I was prepared for an enjoyable catch up with my YITS friends and that certainly happened, but what followed with the last six of us there was nothing short of God doing something wonderful.

Around ten’ish it looked like things were finishing up, Clacy, Sam, Dan, Janice and a few of the others left. The six of us still there: Jess, Iain, Kat, Mark, Dave and myself retreated to the backroom to escape the the remains of a disputible game of All Play Pictionary, pods and tim-tam wrappers, spilt coffee and chai-tea syrup (after some rather stupid dares) and pizza boxes.

Someone asked the general question of, “How’s the God stuff been going lately?” and as we talked our way around the room the night exploded into this facinating, real, God filled conversation. We took it to 3am, spent some time praying and sitting there in silence. It is both inspiring and worrying and encouraging to hear how things have been.

My sincere thanks for their wisdom, honesty, courage and desire to let God do what he will with the blueprint of who they are.

Well, Geoff managed to unearth a personality thing I hadn’t done. I did mine in a bit of a rush but it seems that I am a:

Respectful Inventor

So click away read what I got then go take the test yourself.

I don’t agree with this line at all:
“It is more interesting for you to pursue excitement than it is to get caught up in a routine.”

but I shall take it again another time and see if I come up with anything different.

It looks like tests like these tend to associate the emotional stuff with feminity so I think it’d be best for you not to comment on the masculinity rating that I got. Haha.

I think maybe I should listen to this: “While you know how much can be learned from observing your world, remember that much of life can be lived by experiencing it, not just understanding it.”

With some delight I counted out 7 days of anti-caffiene on my fingers and realised today was day 8.

I reach up into the shelf where we keep such wonders and realise with some despair that there is no tea. Green tea and other herbal teas do not count. The box is gone, finished. I see the humor in the situation – the fact that we’ve run out of bread and are down to the last centimetre of milk doesn’t inspire my confidence in the stocking of the basics in this house.

I think about going to where we keep some camping supplies to find an old one but instead I take my chances sifting through the box of random ‘teas’ (the kind that don’t merrit drinking). There is one very boring, very normal, very wonderful bag or two left.

Cheers all round.
That was a nice cup of tea.
