The most bizarre thing happened yesterday while I was leaving work. A guy riding in the elevator with me to the ground floor dropped his access card (which was attached to a bunch of keys) as he was leaving the elevator ahead of me. I'd just made the decision to pick them up (at least, my brain had just registered that) when they suddenly vanished.....just like that! As luck would have it, the dropped down into the tiny little gap between the elevator floor and the building floor...it's such a small space - what are the chances of actually dropping something down there????? Well, this guy did and the whole bunch of keys disappeared....his office, car, house, and other keys along with it.
How's that for bizarre???
I like to think [ruminate, dwell on, consider, ponder, reflect, think deeply] upon various things. I especially like to think upon the Lord Jesus Christ, and what He has done for us, and how He, the author and finisher of our faith, continues to mould and shape me to be more like Him. I think more people should think.

Am I the only one who wishes I could fast forward time to wake up tomorrow and find it's already December 16, and I'm starting my vacation?!
Time is a strange thing. We've built our lives - indeed, entire civilisations - around the steady and regular passage of time. Einstein showed us that time actually is relative..... but we'd have figured that one out way before if we just paid more attention to the children of this world. All children know that time is very relative. When you're writing a humdinger of an algebra exam, time moves very slowly indeed. When you're on summer vacation, it races by like there's no tomorrow! The sweetness of an ice-cream disappears very quickly from your tongue; the bitterness of medicine lingers so long you want to scream! Need I go on??
Kids would've told us.....if you're having a good time, time flies. If you're having a not-so-good time, time lingers. Einstein's theory of relativity in layman's language.
Out of the mouths of babes........
