Perspective and Creation

Everything we do has consequences. Some are more noticeable than others, and many are expected: cleaning off the table usually results in a clean table. Inaction is an action with consequences as well, which can often be predicted without any extraordinary psychic talent. Certainly not all consequences are predictable, and many go unnoticed.

You might just get 3 after all, David.

So the DM, after reading the previous post, thought the part about how we believed the kids was interesting because he didn’t think it’d be figured out so quickly.

Morning Pages

I’ve been keeping up with my morning pages for the course pretty well. Tuesday of last week, this is what I wrote.

A Chronicle of Nothing?

Or maybe a nonchronicle. That’s kind of what this blog is now; I haven’t been updating with anything much at all. Creation and Personal Growth are getting the shaft in the chronicle department. So, why no updates?
