A theology of stuffed crust pizza

For some of you this might be a “Duh” moment, but it was thought provoking for me.

A week or two ago I got a pizza. I don’t eat food like that too often and almost immediately I had adverse reactions. I felt gross. The pizza was heavy and greasy and I felt bad the rest of the day.

It was strange because I used to gorge on pizza and soda and felt great. This time I was completely dissatisfied.

I began to wonder what else in my life had I been putting into myself, mind/body/spirit, that I thought was good but is actually bad. What feels good that might be bad for me?

I think that answer is different for each of us, but I’m grateful that small things like pizza can bring such powerful moments.

Take a second look at your life and routines and make sure you don’t have something negative masquerading as a good idea.

A Farewell

I am lost again. A ship at sea.

Another anchor to the old man has dropped away.

One more defining moment lost at the bottom of the ocean.

Why we let ourselves rise and fall with such fickle moments is a mystery.

Our desire to connect. For relationship. We are driven into the arms of insanity.

Until the moment of truth and we run aground. Reminded there is more than what we see. We awake and find the truth. That we have been let go of long before we are ready to let go.

The horizon lies ahead. Full of mystery and wonder. Are you ready to begin again?
