Going through the motions

I guess I'm turning this into a music blog this week. This is the other song that I'm playing over and over and over. Matthew West's "The Motions." I think I mentioned to someone just yesterday how every day seems the same and there's a lot of comfort in that. But comfort isn't really the goal. I think that's why this song is staying with me. I don't want to waste my life going through the motions, safe in my routine but just a little disconnected. I think that may be part of the danger of my hermit lifestyle. I want something more, that passion that leads you to make a difference. But...that feels like one of those dangerous things to say or pray, so right now I'm just singing it over and over and thinking about it as I do.

Uh oh.
