I don't feel particuarly inspired today

That, of course, doesn't mean that its been a bad day, its been quite a good day in fact. I just don't feel like doing anything. I want to relax and read a book.

I've got lots and lots to do for school, lots and lots to do for the regions, lots and lots to do for myself.

I ran 10 hills today with a two mile warm up. I feel tired, but good.

I got to talk to Dr. Bodiford today. Dr. Bodiford might be my one kindred soul in Joshua. He's a Spanish teacher, a History professor. He inspires me. He opens himself up everyday to his classes, lecturing not only on Spanish, but on the benefits of learning, the pointlessness of mundane mediocrecy. On the first day of class last year he knew everyone's name. In thirty minutes, he learned 30 people's names. He talked about Aristole, the Socratic method, Thomas Jefferson's views on liberty, seperation of church and state. That was a normal day with Dr. Bodiford. He is an extremly spiritual man. He is a true, admirable Christian. He truly inspires me.

'Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.' Jeremiah 33:3

I feel inspired now.
