Random thoughts

Well I'm back again. Had a nice Christmas vacation to see friends and family. It was nice to have a little break. The ants were here to welcome me back they were cruising all over the floor like I was bringing them presents. hmph!

So here is a random thought. Have you ever considered marriage to be like climbing a mountain? Theres nothing quite like standing on the top of a mountain and surveying the beautiful landscape around but in order to reach the top you have to go through a long climb. It seems like marriage would be much the same way. There are blessings that come with it, yet along the way there are difficulties and trials. These can be used to shape and mold us or we can allow them to separate and break us apart. It seems that one wants to take a nice easy plane ride to the top and enjoy the view without any of the sacrifice each living ones own life of selfishness and still enjoy the view. This however cannot be done (ok so the analogy breaks down with Pikes Peak, but humor me for a moment), one cannot drive to the top or fly to the top without the climb. This is the very thing that strengthens us and causes us to grow we should not expect to or try to avoid that.

Thats the random thought for the day.
Ever seen a bomb squad in action? Its quite interesting.
