What up all my literate friends! This is my first blog eva! I hope to do many more! I think whenever I have a thought after wednesday or sunday or anyday, I wanna post it and share it with everyone here because I feel so quiet alot. Maybe it's because everyone else is sooooo loud in this jr. high group. They should call this a blah...like instead of a blog it's a blah spot. Like blah blah blah, ya know. right?
Anyway, I had a good Sunday with the Youth people. I thought my group did the best! I like the Sunday's when everything just flows well. Everybodys brains are working. It's great. I wish every Sunday was like that. But it ain't...
Every student I have spent time with, I have seen potential. When Tommy talks about God seeing something great in everyone, I see that in y'all too. I know that alot of people are almost forced to say that "everyone is special", but I'm not quick to say that about somebody. I like to observe a little bit first before I say "oh, you're so special". All you have to say is "why?" to that person and they are not sure why they said that.
But my whole point is, I see the "special" in many of you. Many times I want to tell you guys that stuff personally but for whatever reason I don't. That needs to change. There is nothing better than hearing another person tell you the good they see you do. Try it! Why not tell a friend or two what their worth is to you.
I remember when I was on a 16 hour trip to Wisconsin with three of my friends. And by the 8th hour, Me, Craig, Jim and Andy decided to be honest with each other. But we had a twist. We decided that we would pick one person at a time, and tell that person one thing we loved about them and one thing we didn't like. When it was my turn, my hands were sweating like crazy. It's a very scary moment when your friends are all focused on who you are as a person and then have the freedom to tell you what they think of you. Luckily for me, they couldn't find anything wrong with me, which y'all can all understand. ok, I'm kidding...they certaintly knew what they didn't like about me. I took it like a man. We all did.
We then stopped at a gas station after our little session and I felt like we were like brothers walking in. But we all had to think about what the other said. And the more I thought about what they said, the more I could see they were right in my bad and good things.
I think you should all find a close friend and ask them what the good and bad they see in you. It's scary but think of it like this. Whether you ask them or not, they still think it. So I dare
you guys to take a chance. Oh, you might want to tell the bad thing first, then tell the good.
Peace!
Adam...
