1 year Anniversary funny thoughts and reflections

So this Friday is Heather and my 1 year Anniversay so I wanted to take some time to write some thoughts and funny things that have happened and a little of what God has taught us this year.

1. Live with tons of Grace towards one another, it's never as bad as you make it and never as big as it seems.

2. Slow to anger quick to forgive, Say your sorry as soon as possible, it's waisted time trying to prove a point,and at that point the only one your proving is your childishness.

3. Laugh as much as possible, embaress yourself on purpose, bring joy to the other, wouldent you rather happiness instead of grief

4. When you have one sink to share, boys you better go first or it's gonna be a long wait.

5. Never stop opening the door to the car otherwise you might get a reminder if it's been awhile.

6. If she dosent like being tickled do it anyway it's tons of fun.

7. When your wife slaps you on the but like the boys at the game and then says that a boy, yeah youve seen it all.

8. Random date nights are the best.

9. Saving money means turning off your AC UNIT and having a 20$ monthly note, but in louisiana when the summer is having 103 degree days that means no saving money but happy cool wife.

10. pray together and stay focused on God together, he will keep you close when times are good and bad

11.Hide her stuff, it's really fun to watch her get upset and then think your the hero when you say you found it. You even get a kiss sometimes.

12. Tell her she is beautiful in front of her friends major brownie points.

13. If you wash all clothes in one load it's a good thing right?

14. I hate washing dishes!!!

15. She hates washing dishes!!!

16. Somehow I like doing dishes now, but not always.

17. your parents or my parents for dinner, were out of money.

The everyday ordinary is often hard

I have to admit that pretty often I get very frustrated with the mundane. I cant stand repetition or groundhog day weeks where you can say everything that is going to happen before Monday even comes. If it is something you love than that is different but when you find yourself wishing you had greater purpose or even felt purpose then it is very frustrating. Being honest I feel like that a whole lot as of late. As a Male God has created me with a sense of conquer and exploration, this heart of adventure and danger. I often feel in my life that there is predictability and average, boredom and routine. I am not the average guy, alot of people want the 9 to 5 with a big house and American dream. Six figure job, nice car's, boats, material stuff. I would love a cabin in Colorado or Alaska maybe even Montana with a lot of land, I want travel and adventure, the feeling that your heart is alive and not suffocating from lack of testosterone, from lack of zeal, from lack of meaning. I open my Bible every morning, read, and look at the Gospel, what a great adventure. What an amazing life sold out for Christ holds. What an eternal purpose, winning the lost to Christ. I know that God has seasons and times where he is molding and shaping and we must learn so that we are not stuck in a lesson we should have been done with years ago. Transparency for a moment, that is tuff. I've learned that hiding behind mask gets nothing but friends that hide behind mask, transparency sets the heart free.

thoughts
1. Dive into your Bible
2.Travel often
3.Work less family and friends more( obvisouly you have to pay bills but you know what I mean.
4.Use you talents, bless people and give give give.
5.Challange yourself to encourage someone every single day, build them up.
6.Get in shape, working out helps your stress, or beat up a sibling I do with my brothers all the time.
7. be thankful all the time, others have it worse, so could we.
