The Way It Is

There’s a thread you follow. It goes among
things that change. But it doesn’t change.
People wonder about what you are pursuing.
You have to explain about the thread.
But it is hard for others to see.
While you hold it you can’t get lost.
Tragedies happen; people get hurt
or die; and you suffer and get [...]

Mission Possible!!

You have to love this quote! If you are anything like me and I think most triathletes, you have the ability to over analyze, scrutinize and theorize everything you do! Give it a rest and just do stuff!!! This week maybe you could switch off the speedo, the heart rate monitor the cadence meter, [...]

We are pretty strange people at times – WHY do we find videos like this so inspiring?? We have some amazing potential that we never really realize!!!!
I think we are called to be so much more than we think we can be!!

Trinity

“Follow me”
Sunday just passed was Trinity Sunday – the Trinity is not one of the easiest things to understand from the Christian Church. I found a group of triathletes in the states that likes to use this explanation using the symbol above. The triquetra (from a Latin word meaning “three cornered”), is an ancient [...]

GREAT QUOTE from Steve Turner in Q about U2 and faith: ‘Bono is publicly quiet about the faith that inspires the songs because, he says, it’s far too precious to dice into newspaper quotes. Three years ago he made the point like this: “What I have to say is so important that I’d only trust [...]
