the "do" clouds
why is what we "do" so important?what did you do today?
what do you want to do?
what are you going to do in five years?
what do you do for a living?
what can we do for you?
it seems like right now i am in a storm of "do" conversations. i've got "do" coming at me from all sides.
- on one front i've got a friend wondering what he is going to "do" in the future for income and soul satisfaction.
- one front is blowing in with a series of conversations and meetings asking what are we to "do" as a church in the upcoming year.
- another front has a different friend and i discussing where his education will take him and wondering if the path he is on will take him to the "do" he wants.
- and yet another front is gaining force as i am trying to help some friends navigate the "what do we do" that is spinning and hovering over their marriage relationship.
- and on my cloud, like always, i'm trying to figure out what it is i am to "do" where i'm at?
i don't think the "do"s in life are a bad thing... i don't think.
i suppose that it is the "do"s that make our journeys distinct and interactive i guess. but it can feel like so much work at times.
you know, so much time is spent talking and planning and praying about what we are going to do or did do or should do... that we spent little time actually DOING!
i think that is the problem.
we talk and speculate and put few legs to our words.
i believe that the answer lies in the classic nike slogan. (and no, it's not bo knows)

"do" clouds lead to "do-do" falling from the sky. ;)
To speak of the bang is none of yo biz. Unless you got the wonder of the white thunder.
