Would You Rather?

I bought this cool new book that we will be using on some Wednesday nights to spark conversations. The book is loaded with "would you rather" questions that make you decide between extreme choices to see what you really value and or how you process your thoughts. Here are a couple I wanted to ask and see if I would get any responses for.

1) Would you rather fail while trying to do something great or never try to do anything great?

2) Would you rather say sorry for something that wasn't your fault or stay angry at someone forever?

Habits

Remember the National Health Associations campaign some years back where they used the character "Bad Habit Rabbit" to show what bad eating habits could produce in you. It was evident that if you wanted a great end product you had to focus on the habits you were developing now.

For the next two months we will be looking at our spiritual habits to see what we can expect ourselves to look like in a few years if we keep building on our current habits. Sure enough if we want to be spirtitual champions a lot of our current habits (yes including mine) has to change.

By the way happy labor day, especially to all our parents who labor tirelessly day in and day out.
