I am on vacation right now...but I am sharing some of my favorite posts for the past couple years....
REALITY TV: There are a lot of reality tv shows now days...we watch a few like Nitro Circus, 24 (that’s real right?), and American Idol. Steph watches Survivor. Wipeout started last night. Emma was really excited. She screamed with glee when she saw the big red balls.
There was nothing on Monday night. I was doing some work. Steph was watching the Bachelorette and John and Kate + 8. I was laughing at them. There has been dozens of season of the Bachelor and only one couple has ever made it, yet people say stuff like they are there to find their true love. It was sad to see John and Kate disconnected. We went out with Paul and Jen Urban the other night and she said she would never want to be on a reality show because it’s bad for relationships - no one makes it. John & Kate life is now turned into a business. They both say they are there for their kids. The reality is a strong marriage is best for the kids (remember the family org chart for our desperate household series?). What if it was best if they quit the show? Could they do it? Would they do it? The reality is we all have issues and struggles in life. The reality is that usually the hard thing and the best thing are the same (as stated by the Fray). I hope that as we are in a recession or as you face issues with your spouse or family or as you make decisions to take next steps with God - I hope and pray you will have the strength, courage, and desire to do the hard thing, the best thing. Don’t let life wipe you out.
