Not where I thought you were going, but again wonderful writing. To be on the safe side – hide the glasses.

  I’m sure you remember the Jimmy Buffett song about the hotel room with the magic fingers and a mirror that lies, that couldn’t be me in the gorilla disguise. Thanks for reading. yes, I don’t even go where I think I’m going when I write, so I feel your comment. Of course, you’ve always known more about me than me. Thanks for reading…Boomer Sooner!

I have always considered myself as a good judge of character, but many times when I look into a mirror I see a strange person. I ask myself, whom have you encouraged today, whom have you been an influence too, and as you would expect, I look at myself and think how shallow I am and how much I have failed the Good Lord.
As Chris Farley once said, “Anyone can win at checkers if they never move off the back row”. A similar phrase can be said about you Brent, Anyone with a mom and dad like you have is going to turn out ok. Give them a great big hug from me.
Love ya brother
You are a great encourager to me.

We are at the Abundant Living Seminar and are being surrounded with beautiful singing, fellowship and challenges to grow in our faith. Already an emotional day, so you brought the tears and laughter with your story about James. I will send the link to Sharla and Kent. I can see the joy on James face as he listens to them read your story. Love, Mom
