Hi John!

Have you ever asked yourself what it is that you really want? Go ahead, ask yourself. I used to struggle with the answer. But now I've got it, have you?

Dad Joke

My single friend asked me, “What’s the difference between me and a calendar?”

I asked, “What?”

He said, “A calendar has dates.”

Post of the Week

I love hiking. Here are a couple photos of my son and I at Zion National Park.

Quote of the Week

“You must form a clear and definite mental picture of what you want.” (Wallace D. Wattles)

What do you want?

I’ve told this story before, but I feel inspired to share it again.

One time, when I left the ministry, I talked with one of my mentors, looking for guidance and advice. He asked me, “Well, David, what do you want?”

Guess what. I couldn’t answer him. I didn’t know what I wanted. I was never allowed to know what I wanted. I was only allowed to figure out what the Lord wanted, and do that. Want that.

So I was totally out of touch with my own self, my own desires, and my own life.

I had no idea what I wanted.

I had to go through a few stages:

I had to feel okay giving myself permission to even try to figure out what I wanted.

Then I had to actually know what I wanted.

Then I had to go for it!

I had to overcome guilt and move ahead with a brazen disregard for my religious sensibilities and a courageous respect of my own desires.

It took a long time, but I know what I want. And I’m totally okay with it.

And I’m happy.

Do you know what I’m talking about?

Art Feature: Our Love is as the Sea

I live in Canada. Near the ocean. Beautiful!

It's so expansive. Like true love.

I want it!

A FINAL NOTE

Thanks for reading my newsletter (again!). I've been thinking that maybe we should start including a giveaway in some of these. Just to show my gratitude to you. What do you think? What would you want to win? Let me know.

Much love my friend,

David
