I haven’t written in a few days so I thought maybe I should write something.\u00a0 I am taking a few days off and enjoying the spring weather.\u00a0 I’ve been doing a little reading, spending some time with friends, and spending time “working” in the yard.\u00a0 I put “working” in quotations because, while it is work, I am doing it because I enjoy<\/em> spending the time outdoors in God’s creation and I enjoy<\/em> doing something.\u00a0 While I do take time to relax I cannot do nothing all day.\u00a0 That isn’t enjoyable<\/em> for me.<\/p>\n

I find God in the beauty of the outdoors and I find myself spending some of that time reflecting on my relationship with God and what is going on in my life.\u00a0<\/p>\n

What do I read when I am on vacation?\u00a0 I have two books with me.\u00a0 One is on evangelization and one is on the scientific big bang theory relating to spirituality and creation.\u00a0 Some might say how is reading that vacation.\u00a0 While I don’t spend a lot of time reading either on these on vacation I do enjoy it.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Some travel on vacation.\u00a0 I just like a chance of pace and being able to spend the time outdoors and with friends.\u00a0 God is good.<\/p>\n

Peace,<\/p>\n
