Imagine you’ve got a cup of coffee. Made just the way you like it.
And in the instant before you take that perfect first sip, I bump into you. And you spill your coffee. Everywhere.
If I asked you, why did you spill the coffee?
You’d say, “Umm, because you bumped into me.” And you would be wrong.
Wait, what? You would be wrong.
You spilled coffee, because that’s what you had.
If you’d been standing there with a beer when I bumped into you, you would have spilled beer. If you’d been holding a bottle of water, you would have spilled water.
Because the only thing that you can spill is what you already have. You can’t spill what’s not there.
This principle doesn’t just apply to coffee or beer or water. This principle applies to you and me.
When life bumps into us – as it does many times each day. When life bumps into us, you and I are going to spill out what’s already in us. That’s the only thing that can happen.
You and I can’t spill what’s not there.
And what spills out of us? What spills out of us says a lot about us.
It gives away what we’ve been filling ourselves up with.
This is what Jesus is talking about in today’s Gospel. When He tells us that “what comes out of a man, that is what defiles him.”
The next time life bumps into you – and it will. The next time life bumps into you, pay attention to what spills out.
Is it something that would make your mom proud? Something that you want me to tell people when I preach your funeral? Something you’re glad God knows about?
If it is, then you’re good.
If it isn’t? Then you need to take a long look at what you’re putting in your cup.
Because the only thing that you can spill is what you already have.
I think kabru thinks too much. I think he can still enjoy his interest in a light hearted way. EXAMPLE: watch people watching a show. The responses are funny if you got people who react certain ways to certain programs
I was watching my dad watch some HGTV channel and was having the time of my life listening to what he had to say about it. The woman buying the house was saying "vibes" constantly and he kept parroting her sayinf "vibes", even my half asleep mom would be saying "vibes" whenever the lady would say it. Laughing at the fact he kept talking about a kid possibly drowning in a pool at one of the houses they looked at.
I know your intent for your interest is the bigger picture, how it affects everyone. And i know its strongly attached to trauma, but there are ways to enjoy <3
