A little part of the Big story.....fka "My Year to Thrive"

My favorite word in highschool was Lagniappe thanks to Dr. Sims. Lagniappe is 'a little something extra.' I just like the word and the french origin. Hope you enjoy a little something extra today!

A MUST read

There are not too many things I am sure of these days. I am okay with that. It's part of the freedom of relinquinshing control I suppose. Nothing, not even my own feelings seem to be consistent. There is one thing I am sure of today. You need to read this book. Recommened by a highly dependable and credible source, Aaron. The book, if nothing more makes you think and makes you want to want to do something. It is called Seizing Your Divine Moment by the pastor of a church on the West Coast, Erwin McManus. I love this guys writing style and his power to invigorate through the pages. Like any well-written book, it ignites you to think about everything going on around you and how you are or can play a part in the big story, God's story.
I should insert some text here from the book but I have actually had to make myself leave it in my gym bag so I am not tempted to dive in during the green hours (yet another HomeBanc term for the 'money making' times during the day.) I am trying to be a better worker these days and pour myself into exactly where I am now rather than daydream incessantly about where I could be. Hence, the strict reading diet of reading only during designated times.

Credible, resourceful, good friend, Aaron is MIA this week and I am about to finish this book tonight and need some other suggestions so if you have one - send it on. Somehow Aaron's selection made it in to my hands and not on the bedside table along with the 14 other -to-be-read' books so the pressure is on.

Charlsie???? I know you've got something?

Well, the only book I have actually been able to actually finish (other than text books about the reconstruction era and various business books required by employers) is...

THE POWER OF ONE
by Bryce Courtenay

It's wonderful. You've probably already read it. Anyway, it's my one bullet.

Oh yeah- and we call it "green time" too at Commonwealth FG- how cool are we?

Peas.
