Faith is believing in something greater than yourself and coming back to that belief every time you stray – that’s what I learned yesterday.

It’s 12  : 38  PM on day 1100 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to  pray, brush my teeth, feed myself  boiled egg and All Bran Flakes  for breakfast,   read 2 Samuel 3, publish my Disability of the Day feature,    tweet and Facebook about my campaign -nobody donated so far today but  Shasta over at Outrageous Fortune donated $20 yesterday (thanks again Shasta)  which brings my total to $1 020 with 28 days to go :)– spend time outside by myself – every time I’m out in nature I’m overwhelmed by this sense of gratitude a lot of people who were on this planet yesterday are not here today and yet here I am I have one more day to live and to laugh and to make a difference  – practice sitting up straight to strengthen my core muscles and stretch my hamstrings – something is up with my right leg just doing simple stretches hurt like crazy maybe I’m still feeling the aftereffects of my foot infection.

Last night after reading Have A Little Faith by Mitch Albom – a book about what author Mitch Albom learned about faith from rabbi Albert Lewis and pastor Henry Covington – I realized faith is believing in something greater than yourself and coming back to that belief every time you stray. Do you stray from God and go back every time?
