You Want A Donut?

Offering a donut is extending an olive branch. Some time ago I offered a cop a donut. Despite my clear frustrations, and his response, I have to wonder: He still could have said, "Yes," and laughed it off. It is considered as some form of disrespect. Everyone is entitled to their own perspective on the matter. Can anyone laugh? Clearly not, so I'll do it for everyone.

Over this past weekend I've been blessed with two exceptional donut experiences. One from Dunkin and one from Church. Over my brief stint here on Earth, I've discovered that the art of donut making takes much patience and practice. Not anyone can just make a donut. Sure, there's a whole system in place and plenty of people worldwide can make them. It's still a work of art. Such variety. Such a joy and treat. I don't know why anyone wouldn't be happy to be offered a donut. After these few past months, sitting back and chomping into a blueberry donut has proved to be a remedy. 

As a child, I do recall leaving church from the base chapel and taking donuts to the security officers at the front gate. Over the years, my cynicism has taken the childlike joy I once had. Instead of delivering donuts to security, I'm using them as slants. No one prepared me for adulthood and how dark things would get. The only way to remedy this is to simply go eat a donut and laugh it off.

(Perspective) Biblical: Freedom In The House Of Mourning

Countless times I've expressed the expansive variety of options we're gifted here on Earth. Why do we limit ourselves to options ABCD, though? We're told we have free will. We're told we can do what we want with our bodies and choose when to have kids  But what does it really look like to have free will? I'll tell you now. Not caring about the options at all. Seeing everything as a gift. Realizing this world was designed to be enjoyed and lived in to the fullest extent possible. Again, why limit ourselves to simple options? Pick whatever car you want (as long as it's the color options they've presented you with.) Eat whatever type of french fry, icecream, or food that is available on the menu list at your favorite restaurant. We have personal preferences and there's nothing wrong with having options and opinions. The question poised here is simple: Are you really free, or just given options?  I was blessed to hear a wonderful sermon that presented this w...
