A maelstrom of thoughts and feelings tonight.

Gratefulness - how fortunate I am to be given a brain and eyes for reading about interesting issues and cases. Tiredness - the daily grind continues. Loneliness - waking up from a nap and it's suddenly dark outside; I ought to do my work with others, perhaps. Nostalgia and homesickness - wishing to be home and wanting what was, a book titled "Home is the last place you left: yearnings only Jesus can fill." Discontentment and shame - Why me? and yet, why grumble when I've been given so much? Community - online virtual ones and the physical neighbors you barely see much less know. Fellowship - huh? Sabbath - have allowed the rat race to define or conform me, living under the illusion of control and effort. Bubble world - I live in one. Hope - sleep now, tomorrow is a new day. Procrastination - will stop writing now.
