I Hate My Brain

loswhit — 2009-11-08T03:48:51Z

There are few things I hate more than my brain.
I mean. I have never actually seen my brain.
I just know it exists behind my eyeballs and says really stupid things to me on a daily basis.
Lately this is what my brain has been telling me…

No one is going to buy your record…
No one is going to read your book…
Your kids are going to hate you for quitting your job…
Your wife is so tired of your game…

And then I remember…
I wrote these songs so I can worship God…
I’m writing my story because God is good…
My kids tell me 40 times a day how much they love me…
My wife and I are better than ever…

And at the end of the day…
I once again realize that sanity is a figment of all of our imaginations.
And so I trust in this…
“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” – Jer 29:11

What do you need to let that truth wash over tonight?

Where Do You Need The Biggest Kick In The…

loswhit — 2009-11-04T03:42:21Z

So right now it’s a tie.
My fat arse needs to shrink.
When someone is on stage jumping up and down pumping their fist the last thing you want to see is their belly hittin on the 2’s and 4’s.
Since going solo on the work front, wife doing what she does best…taking care of me and the kids, and trying to start a business, my finances need some help in a major way.
I hired PS20 to help with my business accounting but my home front needs some attention.
Spiritually I am kicking right along. Thomas Merton and my daily Bible reading I think might be the only thing keeping me a float right now.
Mentally I’m struggling with bouts of anxiety every so often.
I took a stress test the other day, and let’s just say my current lifestyle is anything but serene.
So let me list these in order of suck right now.
1. Physical
2. Financial
3. Mental
4. Spiritual

That’s what I’m going to be working on in that order in the coming months and I’d love to know your list.
What do you guys need a butt kicking in?
How does your list shape up?
I’m thinking of a way that we can all get healthy together.
Like an online version of what would happen if Dave Ramsey, Jenny Craig, Jesus Christ, and Tony Robbins would come up with if left in a room for 24 hours.
Talk to me…
Where do you need the most help right now?

Physical, Financial, Mental, Spiritual…

Stayin’ Alive // You’re Favorite “Ordinary” Moment

loswhit — 2009-11-03T21:20:41Z

When Heather leaves me and the kids alone for a night, or 5, the first thing that happens is usually the destruction of the sofa and the cushion jump of death.

Hopefully my kids will remember that their dad was massively in love with them.
What is one of your favorite “ordinary” moments with your dad or mom or parental figure growing up.
One of mine is when my dad would let us get in polyester sleeping bags and slide head first down the carpeted stairs.
I’m still bruised.
Building a tree house? Building a fort of bed sheets? Stories in the closet? The rope swing? Or nothing at all?
Please tell…
