Another Roadside Distraction
Well, Superbowl Sunday is coming up. For me that means fast forwarding through a lot of football to get to all the new commercials. I’ve got nothing against sports, I just don’t want to watch them. And most of the time I don’t want to watch commercials either, but I make a major exception this one day a year.
When I was younger, I made the same kind of exception for church. Once I became an adult I didn’t go to church, but for several years I made an exception once a year and headed down to the Hollywood Bowl for their Easter Sunrise Service.
At the time, I felt that if anything could make you feel the presence of God, it was watching the sun come up over the top of the Bowl, while listening to a sermon punctuated by gospel singers at the top of their form.
I talked about this with God today. She said, yeah, sometimes church can be a great show. But she also told me, sometimes it’s like looking at an accident by the side of the road, it’s a little bit of horror that just slows you down on the way to wherever it is you’re really trying to get to.

It seems that Toby is very much like Fang… 😉
