Secondly, your last two lines and finding God waiting at what I do that makes me to lose track of time. I like that thought. Thanks.

You follow through with that theme, showing us how even as a child, you could suspend time and follow through on your love of writing.<br />When time is suspended during the creative use of our minds, work turns into pleasure and boredom seems impossible. And, yes, may we find God during these suspended, ethereal moments.

Our son played war games on the computer while in high school and definitely lost track of time...one of his arguments was that he was actually learning good eye/hand (thumb) coordination LOL...he may not have been far off since he is now in the military and always scores high on his shooting skills...not sure why I am sharing this...different strokes for different folks I guess??? (Although we did work hard at curbing that video time and he did participate and hockey/football so not all was thumb coordination lol) Bobbi I agree with what you said about applying that thought to our children and spouses and others to get to know them better and encourage them...I always learn so much from these posts. Thanks Tracy :)<br /><br />Gloria Lynn Guesthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14144091313075005581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37258556.post-86531633492185029702015-06-15T08:14:13.210-07:002015-06-15T08:14:13.210-07:00Oh those video games...Oh those video games...Tracy Krausshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05066853243062725525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37258556.post-35920353420459277722015-06-15T07:21:42.932-07:002015-06-15T07:21:42.932-07:00Your closing remark, "Think about what makes ...Your closing remark, "Think about what makes you lose track of time" is the lead to many stories.

What a pure, simple, measure of discovering what God placed in a person to link to him on a creative level. We could apply that to our children, our spouses, as well, to know them better, to understand where to encourage them. (Except not being lost in video games. Unless they're designing them!)Bobbi Juniorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16366421883424533929noreply@blogger.com
