Looking Back

I am so far removed from the under-30. 'Dame the torpedoes; full speed ahead'. No rearview mirror; no looking back. Overly ambitious; overwhelming determination. Indeed, true confession is good for the soul. I regret the hurt that I must have caused. But we often forget such until we are old. I can't believe the riskiness and the daring. Although honest, sincere, and hiding nothing, I took matters into my own hands, never considering that such authority was never placed in my hands. I can't believe the 'unthinking of me', and presently, it's hard to fathom the blatancy and youthful foolishness that I once deemed as Christian faith. I have sighed over my early days of blindness, thanking God for His Favor and Grace. I am forever grateful to those who tolerated me. 010323PSCtest, Revealing Your Soul and Other Tension.
