Today's First Reading helped a lot with the reminding (as emphasized by the priest's homily). David kills Goliath with a stone and a sling. Nothing is impossible for God indeed. It's too easy to see the everyday, and only the everyday. We don't take the time to slow down and look into things more deeply. We don't take the time to sit in silence with God.
Since moving out, I sit in silence all the time. I'm quite proud of my ability to deal with no noise, not even bothering to put on the music. And yet, I am surrounded by all sorts of distractions: Internet, stupid books, my new slow cooker, and internet. Sometimes I think my life is waiting for me to shape up and actually come up with a good routine/schedule I would keep on a regular basis. If that's true, I'm definitely not up to par with life's expectations... but that's nothing new.
On a side note, I've started playing violin again. Basic scales are currently kicking my ass but I will persevere!
