Healthy Tooting


I jotted some notes down in Sacrament Meeting last Sunday. Whether they're mad ramblings or wise inspiration I don't yet know. I'll attempt to reproduce them here and let y'all be the judge(s) with your comments.
Concept: Tooting Your Own Horn
Some people say, "I'm not one to toot my own horn...". Some genuinely believe this as they say it. I'm beginning to think this may be a bit on the unhealthy side of the moderation between pride and humility. Others use the phrase to preface their comments with vain humility as they then proceed to toot ad nauseum. (That's Greek for too much) Moderate tooting should include journal keeping and has much to do with one's self-esteem.

I feel like there have been times in my life when I've tooted too much. I fear that too often, though, I don't toot enough. What do you think? Am I a tooter or a stifler?

You know me well enough to comment. Scratch my back this one time and I promise to comment on your blog when you present a similar poser.

Lazy Father

I cleaned off my desk today and found a Father's Day card I've been saving, meaning to scan so that I could save it for posterity's sake. To the right you see the outside of the card. Since I don't have much more to write I think I'll wait a day or two to post the inside.

Any guesses on what it says inside?

Blog Eagle

Jason Schallenberger asked me to present his Eagle Scout Award and give the Eagle Challenge during the Court of Honor tonight. It was an honor. It's also always an honor and I'm humbled to be able to sit with other Eagle Scouts in the Eagles' Nest. Tonight is was myself, Weston Harmon, Loyd Rennaker, and Dwain Schallenberger. Thanks, Jason.

I was reminded of my days in Scouting 25 years ago. I commented to a few people tonight - as I often do at occasions such as this - that I don't think I'd have earned the award without my mom. I'm sure my dad helped. I'm sure my leaders helped. But I think my mom was integral to placing me in the situation. Thanks, Mom.
