Prologue

To be honest i still haven't decided how on earth to do this. And it
would be nice to have some kind of idea about how to approach it all.
Serious thoughts, like a diary? Visionblog, things going through my
mind? Stories that arrive in my head? Trying to be funny? Well the
latter would never work, so that makes life easier.

Thoughts going through my mind....

- I probably should be asleep now. I would like nice dreams tonight please not more horrible ones.

- I would like to do everything at once. Not really but I feel that
way. Today we'll see New Hall come alive into all its potential and
people becoming Christians left right and centre. I will go to France
tomorrow, move into our new house on Wednesday with its prayer room and exciting vision, to Guildford on Friday and live in the boiler room
(only thing is, it won't be there if I go this Friday - maybe next). Sunday I'll go and live in Easton, Bristol, on Monday we'll pray for the city and see it transformed and on Tuesday I'll plant new sorts of schools with a team of friends and affect education in the nation. Then on Wednesday we'll fly out of the airport all around the world to the home countries of the refugees and people we've met, like Ireland, Poland, Somalia, Senegal... and pray for their nations. Finally I'll head home to retire as a storytelling potter in a windmill on Friday, to be back in time for the May ball in June. Good plan.

>>> thoughts on thought. you don't really want to live life on
fastforward, do you? It sounds exciting and it's hard to leave these
things for the future, but the missing bits are the relationships, the
encounters, the waiting, the pain, the joys... make space for God and
for people instead of for you're to do list, it's more exciting
anyway... where are you now??

- I would like to fly to the moon now.

>>> why is it always about flying, in this post 11pm funny head time? Is it escapism? Or freedom? Or are you a reincarnated owl?
(No, I don't think so.)

-Tomorrow I really really really am going to do more than two hours
work. And I am going to go to bed before 1am. Because these are good
stewardship of what I've been given. Ahem, ahem.

- I think too much. But since this is a recurring them I shall not
comment much on that now. Except to say that if I could concentrate on
the words I am reading without setting each and every sentence in
context, and every theme in context, and every book in context, and
every discipline in context and the act of studying in context, for
**one day** only, it would be very useful indeed. I hope you are taking
note, brain. No more spring-action tomorrow please.

- Dinner parties are fun. Jacko and Pete make the most amazing four
course meals in the world and will be temporarily raised to the status
of 'saints.' Maybe we'll dub them later, if they do it again. Running
in the rain is also phenomenally 'sensational' (literally) - do it
again, often.

- Rest of thoughts are fragmenting into thought crumbs. I've already
written half of it twice because the silly computer lost it once. Now
it really is time to sleep. I dare you to lose it again, computer, at
your peril.

- Next time I shall write on **One Thing** only.




The End.
