Well, while I was doodling pictures, I doodled myself as a cell phone. Glasses and all. Yes, a skirt. Kinda looks like a twinkie with hair and arms, but hey, I know what it is.
It all started because this morning I was talking with my kids about how important it is to connect to God. How they have to find their own ways, own places, own times. And I was telling them how important it is so that they can recharge. Keep strong. So that when troubles and worries come, they will be prepared.
And suddenly it struck me and I said, "just like keeping your cell phone charged. You have to have it ready in case of an emergency. And for traumas. And for planning. And for getting good news. And for hearing about people's hopes. And for that occasional surprise call when someone just wants to say that they like you. And that they were thinking of you. You need it to be charged if you are going to share giggles or fears. The point is that the phone can only be the conveyor of information and emotions if it's charged up and ready to go. Otherwise, it's just a paper weight.
I'm much like that cell phone. Given time to be charged up, I'm with you.......ready to share, giggle, run around, play, enjoy, cry, scheme, encourage, clean, or whatever comes up. But I have to take the time to get charged. I have to plug in. I have to get rejuvenated.
That's how it is. For me.
Now............if getting recharged would only help me draw. ;) Maybe one day.....
blessings,
