Office Dog

dog2A salesman dropped in to see a business customer. Not a soul was in the office except a big dog emptying wastebaskets. The salesman stared at the animal, wondering if his imagination could be playing tricks on him.

The dog looked up and said, "Don't be surprised. This is just part of my job."

"Incredible!" exclaimed the man. "I can't believe it! Does your boss know what a prize he has in you? An animal that can talk!"

"No, no," pleaded the dog. "Please don't! If that man finds out I can talk, he'll have me answering the phone too!"

"One of the positive features of a season of liminality is that it provides a pause that lets what has to belong in the past to be left in the past, so that the future can come can as it must and bloom without what is no more."

A Survivor

man bald"I've had laryngitis, tonsillitis, hepatitis, meningitis, appendicitis, tendinitis, and colitis. I've also suffered from gastritis, bronchitis, gingivitis, bursitis, and arthritis.

"I've been held up, held down, hung up, strung up, stood-up, bulldozed, bloody-nosed, blackjacked, hijacked, squeezed, frisked, and mooched. Stuck with excess profits tax, personal property tax, utility tax, inheritance tax, sales tax, school tax, gasoline tax, income tax, excise tax, surtax, liberty bonds, savings bonds, a couple of bail bonds, and the bonds of matrimony.

"I've helped the Red Cross, the White Cross, and often been double-crossed. Helped the Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts, and a few Talent Scouts. Helped children's hospitals, mental hospitals, VA hospitals, spoke out for civil rights, women's rights, animal rights, men's relief, and stomach relief.

"I have worked for a dog, and worked like a dog, and still lost all I had. I've been set aside, pushed aside, hit broadside, and had to sit outside. Demoted and misquoted. Walked on, jumped on, dumped on, rained on, snowed on, stomped on, spit on, cut on, and ratted on.

"I've been put off, ran off, and ripped off. Intimidated, interrogated, berated, separated, and violated. I've been cussed, and discussed, boycotted, stunned, shunned, and shocked. Criticized, despised, ostracized, victimized, brutalized, capsized, analyzed, and ill-advised. Slapped, trapped, and wire-tapped. I've been used, abused, bruised, refused, confused, but never excused. Talked about, lied about, lied to, bawled out, chewed out, kicked out, knocked out, but never bailed out.

"I've been assailed, derailed, and blackmailed. Scammed, slammed, burned, stung, stoned, robbed, cheated, booed, sued, misconstrued, and almost drowned.

"And the only reason I'm sticking around is...???

"I just want to see what's gonna happen next!"

Do You Have?

store convenienceA woman walks into a convenience store. She walks straight to the manager and asks, "Do you have any small note- books?"

"Sorry," says the manager. "We're all out."

The woman shrugs, and asks, "Well, do you have any mechanical pencils?"

"Nope, don't have that either," says the manager.

The woman feels her stomach rumbling and asks, "Do you have Doritos? Nachos?"

The manager shrugs, "Sorry."

"Hmmph. How about Chapstick?" says the woman.

"Nope. Don't have that."

"Wow!" the woman shouts, "If you don't have anything, you should close the useless store!"

The manager shrugs, "Don't have the key."

Delegation

woman confusedMy brother wants me to find him a summer job.

He asked me to check with my boss, my friends, my business associates. Then he asked me to run off 100 copies of his resume, call up the employment agencies, and write an ad for the Positions Wanted section of the newspaper.

I asked him what he wanted to call himself in the ad.

He said, "A self-starter!"

Sunday greetings everyone!

kindnessIf the saying, "The best things in life are free" is true, kindness has to be one of the best things in life.

It costs nothing to be kind to someone. Gentle words of encouragement or appreciation come at the same zero price as not correcting or chastising someone who clearly knows they made a mistake. Going over to talk to a person who is desperately alone in a crowd, or listening to another person's story and then not telling the better one that happened to you, cannot be bought.

The burdens lifted, hope restored, loneliness chased away, and self-worth felt because of such acts, and many more like them, is unmeasurable - especially when you stop to consider that those results may occur simultaneously in the giver and receiver, with unpredictable, ongoing results for both.

That said, there is also be a great price to being kind. The sheer act of trying to see life through another's eyes requires a challenging self-emptying and vanquishing of all the conditions that stand in the way of our being and acting unconditionally toward others. And if we are successful in that, we may then have to invest further creativity, time, money, and energy, into following through because of what we have seen, lest we turn away and end up being unkind.

This is why kindness is also dangerous, because to pursue it guarantees we are going to be changed one way or the other.

Today's video share is of an act that is all of the above and took many kind people to pull off.

"I'd like a little brother," a boy said.

"Oh my, that's such a big wish," said the mother. "Why do you want a little brother"?

"Well," said the boy, "there's only so much I can blame on the dog."

ID illustrationBefore I could start my first job right out of college, I had to present evidence that I was a U.S. citizen. I showed up with my driver's license and birth certificate. The clerk looked at my driver's license and copied down some information.

She then picked up my birth certificate and gave it a long look.

"Is anything wrong?" I asked.

"Yes," she said. "I can't find the expiration date."

Something Seems to Be Missing

missing copyDid you ever have a week when it felt like something was missing, but you didn't quite know what it was?

I had that kind of a week this past week. It felt like something was missing, and I could not figure out what it was.

The past week was typical in many regards. Everything seemed to be going normal as normal could be. But I had this nagging thought in the back of my head that I was missing something. I really couldn’t get a handle on it.

Sunday greetings everyone!

SparrowI had another "time is flying by moment" yesterday when I learned of the passing of singer B.J. Thomas.

I became a follower of Jesus in the fall of 1979, when I was 13. A couple of year's later I bought one of B.J.'s records (technically it was a cassette) and listened to it countless times. That would have been around 1981, which was 40 years ago! It blows my mind that those memories I have are as old as the amount of time that Israel wandered in the desert after being freed from Egypt.

As if that "40 years" math result was not enough to make me feel my age, I searched YouTube for the first song that came to mind from that cassette; "His Eye is On the Sparrow." That was an eye opener too, because as I listened to it for the first time in decades, I thought "You listened to that when you were a teenager? You are OLD!"

Listening to it again has reminded me of my teenage faith in Jesus and the promise and hope that in all the things I had ahead of me (known and unknown) His eye was on me and He would be with me. It's a popular conversational icebreaker to ask people what they would tell their younger selves if they could travel back in time. But in matters of faith, we might do just as well to ask what our younger selves would say to us if they could travel forward in time.

After all, what was true in 1981 is still true today, even if a lot has changed in 40 years.

Not surprisingly, todays "video" share is B.J. Thomas singing "His Eye is On the Sparrow."

Kangaroo Fence

kangaroosA kangaroo kept getting out of his enclosure at the zoo. Knowing that he could hop high, the zoo officials put up a ten-foot fence. He was out the next morning, just sauntering around the zoo. A twenty-foot fence was put up. Again he go out.

When the fence was forty feet high, a camel in the next enclosure asked the kangaroo, "How high do you think they'll go?"

The kangaroo said, "About a thousand feet, unless somebody locks the gate at night!"

A Shortcut Is Not Always That Short

shortcut copyI have always appreciated shortcuts in life. If I can find a shortcut, I will take it because time is valuable to me. I take pride in coming up with a shortcut that actually saves me time. However, not all of my shortcuts have really been that short and I have paid the price.

Last week, for example, I had to go clear across town for my appointment with my eye doctor. Somehow I think they try to figure out where to place a doctor's office, so it isn't easy to get there, especially when there's a time element involved.

Quote #2012

quote 2012

"Friendship always benefits. Love sometimes injures."

- Seneca the Elder



Judging Others, Sharing

airport waitingA woman was waiting at an airport one night. 
There were several long hours to wait for her flight.
She hunted for reading in the airport's gift shop
bought a big bag of cookies -- found a place she could drop.

She was engrossed in her book, but she happened to see
a man sat beside her -- as bold as can be
and grabbed up a cookie from the bag in between
which she tried to ignore -- and not make a scene.

She munched at her cookies and glanced at the clock
as the masculine cookie-thief diminished her stock!
She was getting more irritated as the minutes ticked by
Thinking, "If I wasn't a lady, I'd blacken his eye!"

With each cookie she took, he took one or two.
With only one left, she watched what he'd do
With a grin on his face, and a nice nervous laugh
He took the last cookie and broke it in half!

He offered her half as he munched on the other
She snatched from him and murmured "Oh Brother!
This guy has some nerve, and he's also quite rude
He never showed even polite gratitude."

She had never known when she had been quite so galled
She smiled with relief when her flight -- it was called.
She gathered her stuff and marched to the gate.
(With not even a glance at the thieving ingrate.)

She boarded the plane and sank in her seat,
Then sought out her book which was almost complete.
As she reached in her bag, she gasped with surprise,
Her bag of cookies were in front of her eyes!

"If mine are right here," she moaned in despair,
then the others were his and he was trying to share!
Too late to apologize, she realized with grief
That she was the rude one, the ingrate, the thief!
