Much catching up to do...

So Rusty Smile was once a Xanga, and no one likes those any longer. Life has put a year or so between me and my last post. I may be a bit "rusty" so pardon por favor.

So I have fiends in this town. They are smart individuals and many have opposing views, my self included. Sunday, I got my first crack at defending my beliefs in a long time. My bright and opposed friends have pushed me to think harder about why I feel so strongly about my stance on certain matters. I'm pleased to say that God is even bigger than I had suspected.

"The Good Willed Individual," a concept until now unrelated to fiscal and political policy, has crept into my life. I'm seeing people differently. At one point, people were right and others were wrong. The wrong ones wanted something other than what I wanted and that made them wrong. I'm seeing that they want many of the same things, they just feel we should go a different way to get there.

Now, is it the destination or the path? the end or the means? What if we play on the same team? What if the body is best able to serve as a diverse set of parts working in unison? or would that be harmony?
