Yesterday i was making dinner and discovered a baby spider trapped in the pot i needed.
At first i thought it was a piece of dirt because (i assumed) it was balled up in fear. But when it spread it’s legs and began moving, i realized the tiny speck was alive. i released the spider outside.
What seeds would i want to plant today that won’t benefit me or anyone else until years down the road?
What seeds did i plant yesterday?
Do i truly believe that tiny actions will reap a harvest sometime in the future?
Or am i too impatient to wait, so i don’t plant?
And then in the future, there’s nothing, or little, to harvest.
Guess what happens to my attitude (or yours) when this happens.

Today revolves around a special “first” for our 15-year old High School.
There’s something good about belonging to a tribe.
That sense of being part of something meaningful.
Acceptance.
Shared values and shared experiences.
Support.
Tonight, for the first time in our small School’s 15-year history, or Boys Basketball team has made it to States.
There is something electric in the air.
