So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.

I think these two should dove-tail very nicely because hopefully I will be more productive during the 6 days I do work. So I resolved to take a "Sabbath". The only rules of my Sabbath (suggested by the people at the retreat I went to) is that I can't do school work of any kind or show up in the lab, and that whatever I do has to be something restorative and renewing. This would rule out what I usually do on weekends when I'm not working, which is feeling guilty for not working while I lie around my apartment surfing the web. I mean, the Pharisees would say that my Sabbath should be just for going to church, and that in addition to not doing school work I shouldn't be allowed to do laundry, clean the floor, rescue people's oxen from canals, or use a power drill. But according to Mark Jesus says, "The Sabbath was made for Man and not Man for the Sabbath", so we know that you are allowed to amble through fields of grain and idly munch on seeds and collect a lost sheep if that's what makes you feel renewed for the coming week. You can imagine that as part of resting on the 7th Day, God probably baked a pie and went for a walk and built a sweet fort out of clouds with some of the Archangels. It just all fit under the category of rest because he didn't have to do any of it. So I shall record here to what use I put my Sabbath days, and hopefully the Sabbath can become a permanent habit. Well, it was Nepal's birthday, so we decided to drive all the way across the entire state of Rhode Island from top to bottom (<45 min). We ate delicious New England Clam Chowder and fried sea scallops at a restaurant in Newport. We went on a seal-watching tour in Narangassett Bay and witnessed a seal vs. seal slapping fight. Later we went to Chili's. Still later we went to my house where I had a party for Nepal, complete with a make-your-own cupcake bar, Indian poker, Spoons, Spazz-Uno, domino rallies, singing, flamenco clapping, spoon-castanets, folk-dancing, "They're taking the Hobbits to Isengard", watching youtube, more singing, and some domino dream-house building. After everyone had left we ended the night with Thalweg composing a sea-shanty about our cat while I danced a jig and accompanied her on the harmonica. 5 Comments. HEY!! Elessar has been trying to do this as well. For lent, i'm trying alot of things. most of them private. I hope that you keep this habit. I read a book (which I think you would really enjoy FYI) called "Living the Bible in 365 days. It's about a Jewish man who tries to live every single rule in the bible. Both new and old testament (though since he's jewish it focuses alot more on the old). It's listed as a 'humor' book, but I really got alot out of it. You learn alot of things as well. I suggest it whole heartedly. Hey, good luck on Iceland as well. I forgot to mention it when you wrote it. Also - your parites sound phenominal. Seriously. One day we're going to meet in real life. Didn't we have plans about living in New Zealand together and owning a tourist kind of thing? I may be wrong. I had that plan with someone though.... » Helena on 2009-03-01 05:44:20 That sounds like a Sabbath I could get excited about! Lol, "sweet fort out of clouds" » jinyu on 2009-03-02 01:41:53 R:C It can't be clog dancing... or if it is, it's something akin to clog waltzing... but without the grace. Is it summer yet? » ranor on 2009-03-03 10:34:01 Yes, exactly that feeling. :/ Thanks for the suggestion. I might talk to my dad.. he a bit more understanding compared to my mother. Haha I wish I could witness a seal vs. seal slapping fight. » dont-see on 2009-03-04 04:36:23 Ooo forgot... My boyfriend tried to swallow all his prescription pills. He didn't take too many so he's fine. It scared the squidballs out of me. I practically screaming over the phone trying to make him stop. Bleh. » dont-see on 2009-03-04 04:43:09
