I noticed I listed 22 things I had learned from reading my journals. I decided to add ten more for symmetry. 32 years. 32 lessons.
- It is easier to seem holy from a distance.
- I don't regret the hours spent parenting.
- I haven't wasted enough time on Sharon.
- I thank God for the pastors in my life who took the time to encourage me personally and vocationally.
- I have more often been helped in my spiritual life by non-clergy than clergy.
- Sinners are the only people allowed in the churches to which I belong.
- Hindsight is always 20/20.
- I should have trusted my intuition about people more, especially those in leadership. I have been right about a person's character more often than wrong.
- Churches would be healthier if people stopped talking about each other and started talking to each other.
- As lives go, I'm pretty content with the one I've lived.
