Phooey/Pain

Alright, I had pondered erasing my last post about the Park with my dog because it didn’t quite develop into what I envisioned it would in my head. However it is what I did and although not so spectacular it’s all I have.

Well, my knees ache, my feet hurt, my neck is stiff. I just finished an 8 mile stationary bike ride set on easy resistance. My knees just couldn’t push anything stronger than just enough tension to keep me from falling off. So I sit here brewing a Bergamot & Green tea combo as I await the next great idea to form in my mind.

I didn’t watch the Academy awards. That’s been on the news a lot lately. I didn’t watch them last year nor the year before nor… I was never an avid Academy awards show watcher but I can remember the last time I did sit and watch an entire show and that was when Billy Crystal was hosting and had a running comedy dialogue featuring Jack Palance, I think it was 1992. Yeah, that’s the last time I watched or can remember watching.

As I’ve gotten older I’ve begun to care less about pop culture and trends. I suppose all of that was important to a 29 year old me, not so much a 60 year old. In the grand scheme of things what is it that really matters? I suppose that question goes hand in hand with the what is the meaning of life?

I believe the answer to that question is found in the Book of Micah Chapter 6 verse 8

Micah 6:8
He has shown you, O man, what is good; And what does the LORD require of you But to do justly, To love mercy, And to walk humbly with your God?
