A good game of mud football can resolve all sorts of problems.-- I've been missing out for SOOO long! pbthththt!
To the astonishment of my date, I requested to see the movie "Invincible" tonight. We were missing the BYU season opener, so this was a good trade off, right?
I was actually quite interested in this one. I don't know if it is a masterpiece of the silverscreen, but it was the sports feel good movie of the summer.
Summary: Vince Papale started down the road to play football for the Phillidelphia Giants. He makes the team, but it's tougher than he thought it would be. To regain his focus, he plays a game of raw mud football with his neighborhood friends, and remembers why he wanted to play for the Giants in the first place.
Analysis: As humans, we only use a percentage of our potential. When we are stuck, we need to remember what it feels like to experience our greater potential so that we can apply it in other areas in our lives.
I visited with some friends from my previous job last night. Fantastic people. So intelligent and talented. Things are really frustrating for them right now. I know they are growing and will excell in whatever life presents to them. That's the continuation of the magic we all found together. It wasn't the place, it was the mix of personalities, and envirionment for growth that made it magic.

Becca,
How is everything? We need to keep in better touch. I am so sorry we did not get to see each other before I left for good old Canada! Email me when you can.

MUD FOOTBALL! That's what we did for my last P-Day in the mission! :D It's supposed to be touch football only, sisters against sisters, right... I was pretty exhuberant (wouldn't YOU be if you were going home the next week??!!!) and got excited and TACKLED my companion into a huge mud puddle--ooooh, so fun. Until it was HER turn to do it to ME... lol Okay, so that was fun too. And then everybody started tackling... *shame* I really started something I'm not sure I regret! lol
It is SO your turn to update! :D I can't comment as a "Blogger" 'cause I'm using the new beta, so I'll have to be "other" until that changes... lol
