GLS Mantis #5

This week (week 7) marks the halfway point in the semester. We were challenged in Mantis this morning to think about how we are cultivating the soil of our minds to allow for good seed to take root. We all sat in silence for several minutes before class would start. I enjoy these times of solitude; I have two words: breathing room.


I had definitely let my QT slip for the past several weeks - but I made it a priority this past weekend to take charge and make it happen regardless - and the same goes with working out. And it's no secret - to be at our best, we need to be balanced and physically, mentally, and spiritually fit. I'll talk about emotional fitness in another article because I'm still piecing together my ideas on the subject.



We did take the Emotional IQ (or EQ as it is called) in Marriage and Family last week.  It was good.  Apparently my EQ is the same as my IQ, landing in the same exact percentile.  Gee... God? Now I can't claim ignorance anymore in awkward social situations... Ha.  These are the things I think about during quiet moments.



 Today, I was up early to knockout 2 and 1/2 miles of jogging AND still have a good QT before class.  It feels like a good day coming up.
