Thursday Throwbacks : but not too far

Ahhh, I'm letting my busy life and lazy character get in my way of documenting life.   Better start summarizing the week...


       Saturday was a blast....and I can't even recall 3/4ths of the day's activities.  Ran a few quick errands  with my sister trying to beat the closing post office, only to have missed it by half an hour  Oh well, you live and you learn.  Saturdays mean church night for our family as my dad works on Sundays.  The series my pastor is going over right now is called "Keep Calm and Marry On."  I'm really loving it.  And though I am neither married nor in a relationship, its is great lesson just to learn about yourself, men, and my future.  Saturday nights teaching was on wife's duty to submit to her husband and the husbands duty to love his wife.  I don't have my notes from it at my finger tips, but one great thing learned from it was - wives (and females in general) don't expect your man (wether he be a friend, sibling, father, boyfriend, and husband) to be a leader when you haven't given him the chance to lead.  I think that's one thing I have always had a problem with, in all relationships, not just with males.  I like to lead.  Whether in school projects, driving from point A to point B, making food, dancing, giving advice, etc; I always feel the only way to have control and get the outcome I want is to lead it all up.   I've always thought, "they can't do it like I can."  But if I never give him/her/them the chance, they won't get to prove to me they can (or prove they can't)  So the last few weeks I have been trying to let others to be the leader...and they have (for the most part) proven to me that they can.  After church we (my sister, the group of guys I dance with and their families and friends) played volleyball for a good hour.  Sand volleyball is such a great sport, one of my favorites to play.


      Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday to be continued...
