Genesis Reflections (Pt 3/3): It is one thing to live with optimism and purpose when one's are eyes shut tight as to shield from any hint that something could go wrong. It is another thing entirely to do so with one's eyes open.

The final part in our Series "Reflections in Genesis"!

Genesis Reflections Part 2: Where we discover the world as we've always known it and find that it may not have meant to be this way.

This series was intended to be a two-part series but is not officially a three part as it became rather long. I apologize to anyone who will lose sleep over this.

Genesis Reflections Pt (1/3): Some stories so accurately describe what you've felt and known, but never been able to say. After you've heard them, you find that you now have a best friend in the form of a cozy book that finally understands you. This is not one of those stories.

It’s not that one should want to be mauled by a bear; it’s that bears are the more predictable type. Plus, bears tend to like when you scream and throw food at them where men find the behavior altogether distasteful. 

It is for these reasons, as well as others, that we can discuss the thought dilemma of whether it is more preferable to happen upon a bear or man when one is walking alone in the woods. 

Trigger Warning: While this episode seeks to be mindful and respectful, topics such as human and bear attacks are discussed.

We've all been to the family reunion where we learn that the generation before us believes it is socially acceptable to kiss directly on the lips regardless of gender, familiarity, or denture presence.

What we didn't all know is how that defining moment is like a podcast.

Don't come at me Disney....

I didn't mean to be wrong. As a matter of fact, it never even occurred to me that I might be. I just woke up one day (it was probably a Tuesday) and the heresy was there and it had been there for awhile and how awkward that I was just now noticing.
