Yep, there is a Post Title for you to think about! Today a short one...only because we have to get on the road for North Platte very soon...I got caught up in reading comments. I guess Tom is ultimately right...this takes a LOT more than 5 min to read and it is a GREAT problem to have for sure.
So, today I want to know this. Who has seen Blindside? We saw it yesterday before practice, and although I knew I would like it and had not had a chance to see it yet, it blew me away. Movies about caring about someone FOR NO REASON other than they are human always blow me away. So, who has seen it and what did it mean to you in terms of our SR life together? Who would like to watch it again at practice and talk about it as a group? This is something that I always want to do, but want to make sure that if we dump 2 hours of drumming that we get something out of it...SO...should we make this a goal once it is out on DVD? For now, talk about it and relate it to SR.
Then, last night after practice we once again watched All in the Family (old 70's sitcom)...that teaches SO many great life lessons. The episode was so related to today in America...layoffs, inflation, economy in the tank, people struggling...but what hit me re: SR was the fact that as Archie (main character if you have never seen it) was facing a strike (and therefore no paycheck) his neighbors reached out to help...because we used to have lesson in our entertainment media much more often than today about reaching out and helping others...so just wanted you to know that practice yesterday was book-ended by 2 things, one modern, and one many years old...about the same thing...reaching out to help someone just because we SHOULD do this. So you can talk about that too if you like.
But, finally, I want to know what the word TRUST means to each of you, what it means to trust other people...but more importantly, what it means to live a lifestyle that allows to trust YOU...no matter what.
OK, I MUST go...this is an odd one, but do you best hitting all the points in it.
