Commute

Let everything happen to you: beauty and terror. Just keep going. No feeling is final. Don’t let yourself lose me.

Quite a show after the Colorado Rapids game tonight. Pretty good game, too.

Low expectations, but I loved this movie. The scary bits were scary enough, but it was the relationship and the performances that made the last act … beautiful?

Coco’s favorite walk spot - waiting for the groundhogs to pop up.

Heavy frosting day. Won’t last long. The sun has already started licking it all off.

Outrage-baiting clickbait. The Atlantic should be ashamed of itself. As if this country isn’t divided enough.

Goose Tracks. The off-brand ice cream for moms who refused to overpay for stuff you shouldn’t be eating anyway.

Can’t believe how many Christmases it’s been since we made this for Shift Worship. Still blows me away that Phil memorized and delivered every word of my script without a single hiccup. And then did it again for Easter!

Merry Christmas season everyone!

I was more detailed with the prompt on this one, but still impressive-looking golden-hour light and a bit of drama about whether the ducks will make it. I’m guessing yes.

DALL-E 3 on ChatGPT is so good it’s almost stupid. Back in our print magazine days, we would have paid decent money for an illustration like this. Now I randomly type in “thursday at midnight in paris” while watching football just to see what pops out. The AI even adds the detail of the two accordion players jamming for a little visual interest.

To be loved but not known is comforting but superficial. To be known and not loved is our greatest fear. But to be fully known and truly loved is, well, a lot like being loved by God. It is what we need more than anything. It liberates us from pretense, humbles us out of our self-righteousness, and fortifies us for any difficulty life can throw at us.
