I'm Disparaging right now.
Discipline.
Seems as if it always come back to this.
The D word.
I hate it.
I hate to administer it.
I hate to learn it.
I know I need it.
Disgusting.
Distressful.
Daunting.
Discipline.
It seems to me, that everything in my life hinges on it.
If I had more D then this would not be a problem .
More D and that wouldn't even be an issue.
I can Discern in others the benefits of it. In myself I can see the Dire need for it.
Daylight. It will come in a few hours, whether I want it to or not. And yet
Because I am not D, I will be Dragging tomorrow because of Decreased sleep.
.
Sometimes I am choosing to be Delinquent.
Other times it is Deliberate.
And yet I'm Dauntless.
...
O, there is a little Drop of it here and there-
But not much.
And so I Despise D.
---
Why so Downcast O my Soul?
Why so Disturbed within me?
Put your hope in God,
for I will yet praise him,
my Savior and my God.
Psalm 42:11 (NIV)

You're quite the poet, Ms Julie. This is the second time I've seen evidence. What other lyrical gems are you hiding in that soul?
Hey Julie,
I found your blog kind in a round about way. I Desperately need more Discipline. You just wrote it a lot better. :) Just wanted to say hi!
