I’m home briefly between errands, a lunch date and a coffee date. When I can’t work out, I feel compelled to fill my social calendar as much as possible. If I can’t indulge my endorphin addiction, I can at least meet with folks who help me indulge my ENFP need for conversation. I’m counting on being past the contagious stage.
I’ve got this feeling of awe today, the sort I’ve had in the past right before God does something unexpected and surprising in my life. It’s a strange mix of anticipation, nervousness, gratitude — and the absolute certainty that no matter what, no matter what, it will all turn out for the good.

I read this and think: Wouldn’t you just die if Hugo and his wife found themselves suddenly expecting?
I would make a bet of this happening within 3 - 6 months, but I’m not the betting type.
THAT’S WHAT I THOUGHT!
I was kind of hoping God would get going on the Darfur thing, but Mr. and Mrs. Schwyzer expected a child would be nice too :)
I believe that extroverts find a connection to the divine when they make meaningful contact with other human beings. The solitary runs and prayerful times alone are sacred, but so are heart-to-heart, mind-to-mind connections with other people. For extroverts, it’s really fundamental — it opens us up feel the radiance and energy that’s always around us.
That palpable sense of wonder and anticipation is there for a good (and happy) reason, I am certain… I join the rest in hoping for a gleeful announcement in the near future!
