Nachos Friday - A "Mindful" Mind Story

A real conversation happened in my head between two very smart people (Me and Also Me) [but don't tell the third one, she's cucu]

Me: Uh, it's half past four and I haven't had lunch yet.

Also Me: *whispering* naaachoos

Me: Maybe some veggie on white rice?

Also Me: *not very whispering* NAAACHOOS

Me: Uh nachos! But I don't have tomato or cilantro or minced meat...

Also Me: Oh you don't need them, I certainly don't need them. They asked me back to Hell, and I said no! I'm not rejoining their team and neither should you....

Me: You wot?

Also Me: *clearly sobbing very loudly*

Me: Oh boy. Are you all right? *hand them a tissue*

Also Me:

Me: C'mon. Let's make you some tea while I prepare the nachos, will you? *hand the tissue box*

Also Me: *crying incontrollably*

But first

Have you ever wanted to be frustrated with God?

Have you ever wanted to feel like your prayers are a waste of time?

Of course not. No one does. And yet, just about all of us set ourselves up to be frustrated with God.

It happens when we set preconditions on God. When we tell God how He has to do things. When we do, we’re not changing God one bit.

What we are doing is changing ourselves. Locking ourselves into our wisdom, what we think is best, our ideas. Getting our vanity tied up with how things must be done.

Meaning that if God does anything other than exactly how we see things happening? We’re not able to receive it. Even if it’s better. Because it’s not how we’ve decided that it must happen.

And you’re thinking, “That ridiculous, no one does that.”

You’re right. Because just about no one sets out to put preconditions on God.

And yet, this is still a problem. Because just about all of us do put preconditions on God. We just do it in much more subtle ways.

Like what we see in today’s Gospel.

Where the response to Jesus isn’t an outright “no.” But it isn’t exactly a “yes” either.

It’s more of “let me take care of this other thing, then I’ll get to you Jesus.”

Where, maybe without really meaning to, Jesus gets put in second place. Or maybe third or fourth.

Because they’re just so caught up in themselves and what they’re doing. That Jesus has to take a number. And wait His turn.

A point that’s so beautifully captured in the first two words of one man’s response to Jesus – “But first…”

Once we’re at that point, it’s a very short step (really, more of an unavoidable slide). From expecting someone who we (in our own minds) have already made wait on us. To do things our way.

Which is a great way to set ourselves up not only to be disappointed in God. When God doesn’t do things our way.

And we also to miss God’s best for our lives. Because we’re so stuck in our own ideas about how things must be, that we miss it when God gives us better than we could ever imagine.

mars. hands held out in begging. do you have any comfort hcs/thoughts for soundwave and ravage with soundwave caring for ravage? i am cradling them so sweetly in my hands

I prepare to slumber and then you send me an ask and I’m like I WAKE.

I DOOO I DOOOOO HAVE HCS FOR SOUNDWAVE CARING FOR THE RAV

As mentioned eighty billion times before, I hc that Soundwave mimics purring my winding and unwinding his tape deck (he does it subconsciously when he’s happy/comfortable) and he utilizes that was a way of calming Ravage down and/or helping her sleep. Ravage always helped soundwave calm down and ground him by purring, so naturally Soundwave does the same for her. He’ll hold her against his chassis and purr and it calms her down quick.

Soundwave, being blessed with opposable thumbs, does a lot of grooming and frame maintenance for ravage (and the avians). He loves being able to pamper his cassettes, so when he gets his hands on some good polish, wax, and oil he will spend hours making sure ravage is clean and shiny and well oiled.

Ravage doesn’t sleep very well because she is normally paranoid and on high alert over the safety of her pack as well as general insomnia and nightmares. If she sleeps fitfully, Soundwave wakes up to calm her down and stay awake with her until she can doze off again.

EEEHEHEHEE THATS ALL I GOT OFF THE TOP OF MY TIRED HEAD I’m always happy when you come into my inbox and ask me stuff EEHEHEHEHEHE THANK YOU BLIGGHHTTTT ❤️❤️❤️❤️🛸🛸🛸
