Let us correlate.

My mind is like a giant game of connect four. I love to correlate things with people or events. I have noticed that even the color of a billboard sign (turquoise) will remind me of a person (Kristin) because it was the color of her bedroom. That thought then leads me to think about where she is now (Knoxville) which then takes my mind on a jog to the last time I was in Knoxville with Kristin (ihop, Josh and David). Which then makes me think of other ihop encounters (Lee University)... it is seriously a never ending map in my head. I absolutely love it though!

Nnother example: Jones Soda automatically connects me to my best friend (Leah). When I think about Jones Soda and Leah, I think about the custom six pack I had sent to her with our picture on it. That picture was of us right when I got back from China. Leah surprised me from Michigan, by showing up at our welcome home party. With the time change and her being in town I was running off of 5 hours of sleep for 3 days. She was trying to talk to me one night and I passed out mid conversation. Passing out makes me think of another time when she was in town and I had kidney stones. She was passed out at the house and I was passed out in the hospital. hahaha She had no idea I was no longer sleeping in the same room with her.... this could go on and on!

The mind is absolutely whimsical! It is monstrous library containing the chronicles of our lives. The ability for us to pick into the locks of long ago events is breath taking! How creative is our God!?
