a great thread to get in on at emergent village on what is the bible (as in, 'the word of god', 'the cradle for the word of god', not the only word/s of god?)...
drove home from santa cruz this morning and had a chance to grab breakfast with michael toy (his blog) before leaving the bay... nice... a good person to know... he is the gospel in motion... broken, happy, enlightened, dark, thoughtful, carefree, focussed, lost, found... i hope he doesn't mind that i use these words... perhaps i should check with him?... hey michael, you mind?... ... ... ... [no answer...] guess that means its cool... a complex person becoming comfortable with his own flesh...
our own flesh... so, off with the whole spiritual realm metaphor and embrace that we are this flesh, we are not 'in this flesh'... we actually are who we are, inseparable from soul and flesh... or thats my thought... i mean, glorified bodies one day?... the concept of the soul is plato's, not the jews... doesnt mean its wrong, but... hmm... dunno...
been thinking about how i gotta stop thinking and start living... thats what mark said i might consider... to stop thinking about every freaking thing and just live... thats really hard for me... am i being redundant?... did i say this already?... its way easier to philosophize about the poor or loving my neighbors, but still i love to be up here behind my laptop and in the safety of my home... clean and safe...
time to pass out... tomorrow lisa goes to the airport and i return to a busy life of errands... then, i will begin to work on our living room... redoing it just a bit... and other stuff... later...
