Heart Well: Crazy Hair Day at School

...Heart-Well...

Is it possible I will stop living
my life so intensely?
Will sensations cease to
seem so very real to me?
Will my craving, yearning to read,
no, to absorb scripture die away?
Gazing into my students’ eyes; relating to
their ideas; empathizing with their feelings?
I wonder if my heart-to-heart discussions with
intimate friends will ever feel less fulfilling;
if tear filled eyes of struggling students’
will cease to tear a corner of my heart?
That sense of completion at the
close of an arduous day of teaching; that bitter-sweet

remorse when a student graduates

and begins a new life-chapter in a far-off country.

Christ’s love grows wildly;

ceaselessly pools in my heart-well, fills up,

overflows; pours out of me to

soak students and flood the farthest reaches of my life.

Awww Elaine you know you could have done crazier than that!

speaking of hair, I got my hair cut today the lady was impossible to understand, and she didn't do the best job ever, but mom was able to make it look better.
