Crosby, Stills & Nash singing "4 + 20" which make me wonder what I was doing 24 years ago.
Not especially good at math, I hit the calculator App on the I-phone and subtract 24 from 57 and it's 33.
That's Jesus age was when he was crucified.
OUCH!
Since that first one, his ass has been nailed to a cross virtually every day somewhere but especially in church and Congress.
On the other hand, I've only been crucified a few times. None were pleasant and I wouldn't recommend it to anybody though it is great when you survive.
The scars don't matter.
The life does.
Sitting here at 57, wishing like hell I could be 33 again because my beautiful wife Sarah would be three years older than me and I would like that.
It would buy us more time.
But it is what it is.
It took her one crucifixion and me two to get us to where we are.
I wouldn't trade it.
I'm pretty sure she wouldn't either though crucifixions make you not take much anything for granted when you survive.
It's been a tough week full of good days and bad days and going half mad days. Lots of people with hammers and nails have been walking around ... mostly corporate leaders, politicians, FOX News and clergy ... but so far we've skirted them.
We're still alive and kicking!
Hell! We're flat out enjoying!
You are too if you're on the right side of the dirt!
So take the moment and enjoy the hell out of yourself!
You've survived your share of crucifixions just like I have.
It's best to focus on what's next because what was ... hurt like hell.
It's a time of celebration!
I'm starting by proving to Sarah that resurrection has many meanings ... many times ... many ways ... and is repetitive.
Life is good!
Go do good things!
Especially for yourself!
