Well, let me equate this to the lovely Fourth of July, where if my mind was a firework--- it would have exploded by now and turned into one of those giant Mickey Mouse holding Statue of Liberty lantern torch-thing that ends this whole shebang in the great ol' Big Apple.
Yes, poop. Just got real. No, but seriously...I might as well have shoveled psychological poop from centuries ago from the recesses of my mind into the now ever frustrating present.

You're welcome, for that image before bed. Goodnight.
JKAY, but seriously...
Okay...so I literally took like 2 hours talking with a very close friend of mine about serious stuff, and I am TOTALLY OKAY with it being 11:55 right now. You should too.
So far, we had Pre-Camp, and today was our final day and the kids put on our wonderful performance of "How to Fight a Dragon". I did not get to see it, but let me tell you the premise:
King Elvis rules over the Land of Chicken & Rice, and though he is a groovy and jolly rockin' king, has a problem: a dragon. Now the King decides that he will find a knight to fight his problem. He looks everywhere, but does not find anyone able. Therefore, he finds the next best thing: Eugene Knight. Eugene, unfortunately is not a knight; that is just his last name. But the King leaves, which leaves poor Eugene to ask these random townspeople on how to fight the dragon. After much frustration and failure, a mysterious rider, named Dr. JC Knight, comes into town. Meeting with Eugene, there is some confusion on why JC cannot fight Eugene's battle. But in the end, JC tells him what he needs is obviously armor, sets him up, and then Eugene goes off to defeat the dragon. He wins, gets crowned by the king, and then helps JC in the local Knight school raising other young men to be great knights.
Now, that was for the kids and the lesson plan was the armor of God, but what I took from that ---while writing it--- is that JC, or JESUS CHRIST, has given us armor to equip ourselves for battle. He does not send us into battle without armor, and he gives us the good book, THE BIBLE, to train ourselves and be prepared! I mean, Jesus is always ready to takes our fights, but honestly he is a Doctor and Professor, and he ready to teach and lead. He can carry our bodies and take our burdens, but we are powerful soldiers of the Lord, in His army and in His arms; when He leads, we follow--- so let me ask you this, are you ready for battle?
This battle can be anything and with anyone, but it is not fighting with people...because as much as we downsize things: "For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms."
- Ephesians 6:12
So, take up your armor, because my kids this week "GEARED UP" for MONT LAWN CITY CAMP---in the Poconos! So, see you in a week!
God Bless & Finally...Goodnight/morning...cause it's tomorrow,
