Golden Brown

You need to get outside more. Getting back in the gym is paying off, but with all the heat and the fact that you live and work at home, you just haven’t gotten a chance to get out into the summer.

(Not the Stranglers. But wow… an amazing job with a Mariachi twist. How did you miss this one?)

The sun on your hair over time gives it that golden tinge you always liked. Since it’s still mostly brown, you have a good few years of enjoying it. Simple pleasures in life. 😂

Deployments keep getting pushed back. Gar. Definitely could use a big check heading into Con. Well if not, going all in on the store can work; you certainly have the time to just bulldoze a bigger payment out of it.

Either way Con is closing in. Just about a month and an half out. Last year was amazing for interesting reasons. You didn’t know if that was going to happen again, but you sure wouldn’t mind it.

But now throw in from left field someone else wants to join you that one your best friends made sure to point out was single. OK well the asking her to con was your idea and she got excited. 😂 Lol yeah, you definitely wouldn’t mind. Who knows, that might even be crazy enough to work. Which means don’t worry about it and just see. People have to drop out all the time; so it might not happen. Would really be nice though.

Whatever. Just go ahead and admit you have your hopes up. 😂 But worst case scenario, you still get to do Con. V will be there again, and the rest of your usual group. Gonna be great. 😊

Open seas and skies ahead. Into 1st Corinthians now. Led here after Ecclesiastes. Important to remember what it means to have spiritual life in harmony with your temporal life. Feel how they rhyme. How much you need Him. To navigate the storms you face in life, be they those you can see around you and those you can’t. Doesn’t matter how easy or how rough they are… you need Him to be at the helm to get you where you want to go.

Golden brown, texture like sun
Lays me down, with my mind she runs
Throughout the night
No need to fight
Never a frown with golden brown

Every time just like the last
On her ship tied to the mast
To distant lands
Takes both my hands
Never a frown with golden brown

Golden brown, finer temptress
Through the ages she’s heading west
From far away
Stays for a day
Never a frown with golden brown

A woman, an odyssey, or heroin. Pick your meaning. Atlanta is west.
