February 2005 has ended, and so ends the 022005 anthology. My last entry yesterday was a bit of a cheat: a video I took of myself eating oatmeal in Baltimore over two years ago.
In November 2002, I was at rock bottom: two months into school, dealing with lost love, living in an old house on limited finances while I struggled with my M.A. and a part-time job in Washington. Life was fairly bleak. Yet, as I sat there eating oatmeal while the cat bothered me, I kept faith: God is good, things would get better. And they did. I keep the original oatmeal video in my hard disk, just to remind me.
(No relation to Michael Barrish's Oatmeal, which is much more disturbing.)

Touching entry :) Everyone needs life markers to remind us that God will ALWAYS leverage the bad for His good.
Good to hear you're doin well, Pau. Visit SF soon! Meanwhile, lemme add you. ;)
Who would've thought a video of oatmeal could speak so much of God's goodness? Amazing stuff. Thanks for sharing. :)
