stormy

"We are a little like the fly on the chariot wheel in Aesop's Fables who looked back and declared, 'My, what a dust storm I'm causing!'" -Foster
Thats something I'm struggling with right now... What would happen if I left everything behind? Don't kid yourself Mary. Things would be fine. My reading for today was Philippians 1:21 "For me to live is Christ and to die is gain". I feel like I contemplate my death in the wrong way. I live for others to be blessed through me, and if I DID happen to kick the bucket any time soon, life would go on for everyone else. Whew I feel so much better.

At the end of the reading, Foster suggested writing my own obituary... Kinda morbid, but as I thought about it, I was like hey! What do I want to be remembered for? How would God use me if I let him? Whats some craaaaazy shit I could pull if I wasn't straight up SCARED of everything?

Mary Higgins, a hilarious human being was tragically killed by a yak while going on her first Himalayan trek. She was 50 years old and is survived by her wonderful family.
(hmmm. I don't have loads of time... Anyway)
Mary's life began in 1980 in St. Louis. She was a genius baby and has maintained that same level of genius ever since. She loved music and singing and that has been her joy, and her first love. Mary realized her need for a savior and gave her life to Christ at age 7 and has been walking with God ever since. She's had her ups and downs in her faith, but has always wanted to serve in the ministry. She was last seen shoeless in Peru  running an orphanage in 2037. She will be missed, and we thank the Lord for her.

I LOVE IT.

time to eat... Pepper's Deli

I love food, so why not post about the places I eat?!?

Pepper's Deli is located in Downtown Chattanooga on the corner of 4th and Broad Streets.
It's a great spot to be... In the middle of everything! The patio basically rocks, the set up is a little crowded at the front, but too sparse in the back. The friendly atmosphere makes up for it to me. Their use of mixed media is interesting... grass, metal and neon lights are the main materials which I never tire of looking at!
but seriously, lets get to the FOOD...

The first time I went for lunch and ordered a club sandwich. Nobody can ruin a club sandwich, right? Right. It was everything I hoped it would be. One interesting extra was their house mayo. not your run of the mill dijon by any means, and it really brought out the flavor of the turkey. The side dish I ordered was pasta salad, and it was just down home GOOD like my mom's! It helped that it was 80's day so we had a dance party with the waitress...

Their prices are about a dollar more than I would prefer to pay, but you get full!
