just been to the super market to buy food for tonight and tomorrow (when crazy man hodgson is joining us).

flip - this is some boring stuff i talk about on the blog.

oh yes - last nights film night - the thin red line - i'd seen it a few times before but after dans introduction i saw it a whole new light - totally amazing. also kinda scary watching it a week or so before WW3 might start! more on that later...

and something else i'd been meaning to put up, after last mondays teaching on rhythms of life etc, i'd been thinking about some stuff mike had mentioned - just before then, i'd heard it said that mike was bringing back all the young adults cause he felt there was too much diversity going on at the expense of unity. and then i was like, "too much diversity?! this is nothing - we're barely any more diverse then we were 3 years ago - we've got a long way to go yet!" and then thinking that if diversity and unity are on a continuum like work and rest are, or discipline and freedom (in that you cant have one without the other), then we need to have a unity step so that we can grow further in the diversity step next time. that we cant just go diverse, diverse, diverse, diverse etc until we're nice and varied and still hope to have any unity left in us, but that as we take a step towards unity, then we are then able to make an even bigger step towards diversity again, then a swing towards unity, then diversity and so on, each time growing more so.

pretty much like being on a park swing in other words - you dont just go straight up - you need to swing back and forth, gradually swinging higher and further each time. same idea.
