A nice day.

Today I served at a thing called “NiceServe” which my church does every three months. About 600 members of the church got together to go to different not-for-profit things or to serve people in need.

I ended up at a place called “The Hubbard House”, which is a big three story house with many, many rooms that is located right next to a big hospital down here. Patients and their family stay there for $40/night at this place, and it’s beautiful.

As I was wiping down some windows, I thought about how much I was enjoying doing it. As I do the videos for my church, my ministry is pretty well regarded and recognized. To be cleaning windows anonymously for this place felt so good. To be doing it only for God, and the people it will affect to be in a beautiful environment as a loved one might be in serious condition, giving them a place to feel centered, seems awesome.

Afterward I watched a movie with Amber, “The Darjeeling Limited”, a movie I liked even more the second time (and I liked it the first time). Mid-way through the movie I came to an epiphany — why do I want to date Amber? Like, why was my mind always on it. Yeah I like her as a friend, yes I’m attracted to her, but the real reason why it’s on my mind is because I want to be loved by her, not the other way around (the motive of me thinking about it a lot, I mean).

So after that things got a lot easier for me, and after the movie I really enjoyed hanging out with her. I really like her.

We both like good movies and don’t like bad ones.
