Day 113 - reality.

Day 113 - yard work again...aaargh.

But tonight I'm sitting watching the movie The Informant.

Interesting.

What's interesting is the central character Mark Whittaker who can be in the most important discussion involving major issues but his mind has wandered to the biggest load of trivia you could think of ....like how do Polar Bears know their noses are black which they hide when they hunt for penguins!

The best parts of the movie are the comments he's thinking inside his mind that distract him from reality. Fascinating.

Or, is the trivia reality.

Where does reality sit?

Who determines what's reality?

It's real to Mark Whittaker.

Here's my intentional follow ........ try to match my reality to God's, He is ultimate reality.
Today I've tried to live in the truest reality there is - I've tried to focus my thoughts through prayer on what God is doing.
Today, more than many days, I've tried to line my reality up to His.

Yard work was easier, being Mark Whittaker is easier.D

That really was an outstanding movie.

Also, I write quite a bit on the condition of the mind, and the whole issue of dealing with reality. You might find this post particularly interesting:
