how others see us / how we see ourselves

a friend of mine emailed a pic from almost two years ago and I can hardly believe its me -
funny but its a portraite of exactly how I want to look and sure enough.  ha.  its how I either do look or must've looked at least at some point.
I'm not making so much sense here but bear with me.
so
what does that say about my soul?
I want to live a certain way and maybe I do (even though it doesn't feel like it).  and I want people to see me live a certain way and I'm trying to be confident about that (its slowly maybe starting to get a little easier).
ok.  now I'm just rambling.
don't know exactly what I want to say but it has something to do with being surprised about what I looked like :) who knows.  maybe I'll be surprised by what God has to say about me when we all reach the pearly gates.

ok.  and since I'm just sitting here rambling...the whole death thing is really an incredible concept.  being a Christian I can't help but look forward to it but at the same time its obviously finite and perminent and we all don't really know what to expect...nothing on earth is like death.
OMG!  another six word memoir :) I'm starting to find these all over the place.

  1. nothing on earth is like death,,,

    You are absolutely right. Death is the bridge to eternity, life with God forever. It must have been Peter who sent that "Joey Heatherton"-looking photo of you. I have that photo in my collection of "the many faces of my first-born"......kind of like the many faces of Mark! The weather is hot and humid here - feels like July, not May...
