Now that is fun...

Posted

One thing I must admit is that most of the things that I have done were predicated on one deciding factor, is it going to be fun?

Fishing, for example. 

Yes, fishing is always fun, as is camping, hiking, skiing, skating, and swimming.  And let us not forget climbing.

Yes, climbing.  It might be rock climbing or climbing trees, which is always fun.

Yes, the determining factor that must always, and I mean ALWAYS, be considered is, will it be FUN?

My dear old papa told me when I was very young, “Son,” (that’s what he called me, son), “Son, whatever you decide to do, make sure you enjoy it!”  And most of my life, I have found it wise to listen to him.

For instance, getting a job blowing up live trapping beaver and blowing up their dams with dynamite to prevent flooding was fun.  (In fact, anything that goes BOOM!  Is fun!

Directing a zoo was definitely fun, as was working with lions. Oh yeah! 

Photographing bears up close and personal is fun, and remembering all the fun things I have done in my wild and crazy life has been fun.

But none of that even begins to shine compared to my beautiful children.  What a joy! Yeh, they are fun!

Oh yes, and the greatest joy of my life is building my friendship with my Lord Jesus, which has been and continues to be more fun than anything that has gone before!

Yeah, Jesus is fun!

Dear Papa God, thank you for introducing me to all that is fun in this life!  Thank you for the joy of life and for giving me long and bountiful life and many friends!  Thank you, Father, for my children and their children and their children’s children.  Praise you and thank you for life and for giving it to me more abundantly. In Jesus’ wonderful name, Amen  

Fun, Jesus, Fishing, Hiking, camping, skiing, skating, Faith, Inspiration
