Inside the Mind of a Nathan

God’s grace and mercy are bigger than any of our weaknesses, follies, or misfortunes. Let me say it again: God’s goods are always and forever so much bigger than our bads. I can’t tell you how much shit I’ve done. Not like I wouldn’t tell you; I just don’t remember all of it, lol.

Well, daaaaaaang son! If I didn't know any better, I would say I didn't write very often. But let's not get into that just now. Admittedly, I've been considering starting another blog. There are a lot of things I want to say that, well, I feel just can't be said in a pseudo-public blog.

Well well well. Three holes in the ground. I caught up on a few boring tasks. They keep saying do the legacy tasks first. I keep ignoring them. Legacy tasks are hard to complete when you're feeling anxious about bills, notes, emails, and all the rest — but I think that's when the switch will take place. I think that's when I will transition from a young man who writes often into a full-hearted writer. Imagine that.

The world is still tremendous! And I am still rather small. I spoke with a dear friend earlier today who said he is learning how to be small on this vast planet. He said it’s terrifying to embrace that reality. I don’t know if I find it terrifying — but that could perhaps be why I feel so timid so often. I don’t know how to handle the vastness, and I scurry away.

I shall conquer the world! One book at a time! Holy heck, I feel it: the proximity, the nearness.

FTA. Feed the animals. I recently read an article that discussed how to organize your time. Super-summary: The first half of your day should be legacy tasks (things that will push your projects forward, whatever they might be). The second half should be feeding the animals (all the tasks that keep everybody happy, the things that keep the various pots from boiling over).

HOLY HECK But I'm not gonna talk about that right now. In other news, I CLOG MY OWN CREATIVITY.
