I started work. That's all I seem to do, which is good I guess. Keeps me busy. No more sitting at coffee shops for four hours a day for me. I'm still pasty white unlike every other one of my friends because every sunny day we have had, I have been inside a hot and sweaty kitchen for mostly all of it.
Saturday night I went and saw You Can't Take it With You at Pacific Theatre put on by PT and Trinity Western. A marvelous performance. Sometimes I like going to plays and not knowing the story at all and being completely surprised. This was one of those times. Some of the issues that the play brought up are ones I am dealing with right now. This family is living with values completely against normal New York society. They couldn't give a rat's ass about money or prestige and status. But they have family and community and love. You know, those important things that we sometimes forget about.
Quite frankly I would love to make enough money this summer to have enough gas to do what I want and enough to go back to school next year. I was considering the other day trying to go the whole summer without buying clothes. I don't need new clothes, I have more than most people in this world and most importantly, it is no longer important to me to have nice clothes or nice things.
Seeking beauty, loving people, thirsting for the Father who loves me so much. THOSE things are important to me.
Anyway, go see You Can't Take it With You, you will be pleasantly surprised.
