got a call that i was needed at work last night
i didn't want to go
i was still worn out from my crazy 24 hours of bizarre travel
but my boss turned on the guilt trip
so,
instead of listening to it,
i said i would come in..
all of this is within the never ending dying to self
our never ending fight with pride and responsibility
she simply wanted a shift covered
i simply wanted to rest one more day
she won
and really, as i sucked it up and went in with a smile on my face,
thankful for my job,
i realized it was not about who won
it's about something else
it's about the response to stuff we don't like
the reality of living our days before our Lord,
in everything,
which isn't easy
"everything is grace" said Therese of Liseux
