The 'ol baldy said bye last night. I have decided that I don't like "goodbyes" because that means its over. I will be seeing 'ol baldy whenever I go home, so its DEFINATLY not over for me. haha. He did shed some light on something that was rather interesting about this dome that was built....and the "board" incharge of making sure the structure was safe thought the dome would not last, and might fall in and hurt people, so the asked him to put up pillars to help reinforce the dome. Well several years later....they decided to construct a scaffolding to clean this dome and once the men reached the top...they weren't expecting what they saw. From the floor the pillars looked amazing, and looked as though they were doing the job they were placed there to do, but at EYE level the were about 2 foot short. There to please the people in charge, but not helping support the masterpiece itself.
This reminds me that often we find ourselves doing things simply to please those around us and to not actually doing things for ourselves or doing things that don't even affect us.
Ol baldy also helped me realize how important people are in my life. One thing I don't say often enough to those in my life is Thank You. With a simple list of 27 things, we ALL can achieve so much more. I know 'ol baldy's list. What is your list?
Maybe I will construct a list, who knows.
