friday's freedom

I'm loving this Friday evening. Didn't you know, humming (singing) along to some catchy tunes is one of my favorite past-times? Multitasking is my middle name - I get the feeling the landlord might sneak in tomorrow to my place, so I am humming (yelling out songs) AND tidying up. Ah yes - it is only Friday evening that I really can just chill and at least try to walk slower, sing a little louder, jump a little more on my bed and just generally remake my world and think about the day. On that note, by sending the invitations for our discussion group, I realize how different people can react. You get everything from thrilled feedback to accusation of proselytizing before the three letter word with a capital ever emanates from this innocent mouth. Highly interesting - gosh, I should have studied anthropology. I might have earned myself some extra-credit with my life-threatening search for behavior samples. So what could it be about God that is so powerful, so threatening, so dangerous? Is it maybe a smack in the face for us "self-determinded" all-powerful selfish superheros? Or perhaps just a boring subject, that kept my great-grandparents busy? Whatever the reason or reaction, I rest assured that Wednesday will be a turning point marking something new in lives, starting with my own. The starting point is openness to differing thougts, beliefs and experiences. All the hours of lively, secretly-interested, deep and threatening conversations this week (in the hall, over lunch, at the airport, over email, at reception) were a part of it. Exciting I tell you - I'll just let God use me.

Ok, back to the vacuuming or else it'll be too late for the neighbors. ;) [10pm is still ok in frog-land]
