I really am excited about the interview game...I've just been so
neglectful!
1. If you could re-live any day in your life, which day would it be? And
would you change what happened that day or would you leave it the way it
happened? I'm not sure I can pick just one! There are so many days that
should be changed. But if I had to pick one, it would be one day when I
disappointed my Daddy. There were many, so any one of them would work for
me.
However, I think I would have to leave it as is...there are plenty of days I'd like to redo, plenty of mistakes to correct, words not to say, plenty of life to live that I wasted. But I like who I am today, and I like my life and I think if I changed even one iota of one minute I would be a different person today. (Mostly I'm just afraid that if I even took one fewer or more breathes, I might not have met my husband and be married to one of the most amazing men on the planet.)
2. For one week, you are granted the opportunity to do anything you want-- no moral restrictions, unlimited finances, no physical limitations. What would you do? Yikes! I am determined that this answer will not get me in more trouble than I can stand! First, I'd want to try hang gliding. I've always wanted to try that but it's expensive and scary. Then I want to try that kicking move that Trinity does in The Matrix. And then, just once, I'd like to keep up with Chad on one of his training ride. Yeah. That would be a perfect week!
3. What do you like best about yourself? Best? Hmmm...best...at the moment I have to say that the thing I like best about myself is (do you like the way I prolonged this answer, giving myself even more time to think before committing to anything? I thought you would.) OK...no more stalling. The thing, at the moment, that I like best about me is my ability to figure things out on my own. Sometimes it gets me in trouble, sometimes I worry people, and sometimes it takes me FAR too long to get an answer, but, usually, if given the time and resources, I can solve just about any problem that comes along. Tomorrow I will probably like something else best. Like, just my eyes or something.
4. How do you define success? Success is when I get to heaven and hear Yeshua say, "Well done." That's success.
But to measure my progress toward success, I think Love is the answer. I feel successful when I am able to do the most loving thing I can do for someone (and I define love here as the a chosen action that stems from the desire to lift someone up to God, striving always for what is best in His definition for the person involved) regardless of my emotions at the time. Even when it hurts, even when the person will stop 'liking' me for it.
5. You've written quite a bit about The Matrix... what one thing most impacted you when you first saw the movie? Honestly, the first thing I was overwhelmingly excited about after watching the movie was all the references to faith and trust. I believe the majority of life's problems stem from our struggle in fully having faith that we really WILL like our life if we let God direct it!
