At The End
I am not a terrorist
Nor angry, avid Baptist
Not a bloke on a “watch out” list
Just overweight.
I am not a vicious killer
Won’t find me a Hades filler
Sometimes even a “God willer”
Still, often dumb.
Never lost to hesitate
Got some good things as I wait
Chasing sense instead of fate
Somewhat forgetful.
My soul is never just “all’s well,”
Yet far from a devil’s hell
I zip my lip more than I tell
I can be quite boring.
Life is not about the race
Who we follow or do we chase
Sometimes wool and others, lace
I rejoice in my common.

G-Poppers … April 27th, 2018

It is totally unrealistic to believe that we can tout our strengths without having our weaknesses show up sometime in the heat of the struggle.
There is a healthiness to being positive about our gifts and talents. Yet without understanding the darker side of our character, we can mislead ourselves into thinking that matters are much better than they truly are.
It’s the difference between “scoring” and “scouring.”
G-Pop knows when to score; in other words, those moments when some self-promotion and blowing one’s own horn comes in handy so people recognize possibilities instead of being in the dark about his potential.
But likewise, there is the need to scour–to scrub the emotions, motivations, and buff up honesty in order to create a clean heart. Unfortunately, most friends, family and even strangers become somewhat miffed if G-Pop becomes too self-aware, or in their opinion, self-critical.
They ask him if he’s “going through a bad time.” They want to know if he’s been offended. They think his moments of scouring are useless, and could be better applied to more scoring:
America is full of those who score and rarely scour. What is scouring?
Today G-Pop recognizes that he needs some scouring. There are some trailing lies, misconceptions, fears and aggravations that cling to the corners of great plans, preventing them from gaining flight.
Without this scouring, scoring starts to be a memory of the past and a false projection of what might be.
