my mind, against my will, has been flooded with a consciousness of sin, both my own and others'. i feel entirely broken. filled with grime. emotionally dead.
no better time than easter to meet Christ in healing. i hope.
i don't know how many of ye fellow alums read those mind & heart emails from our darling president, but this bit struck me: "Easter empowers us to live fully in the moment -- our past crucified, our future won. I hope the vitality of spring and the hope of the risen, conquering son bring you optimism and joy in this month of April."

I noticed that part too! It was hopeful.
I know... when Bill writes stuff like that, I remember why he's so cool. It isn't his hipness or his with-it-ness, but his love for Christ and his hope in the future.
Bill Robinson... what a gifted man... Sheesh, I don't even know what the president looks like here at UNL... nor do I know his name! Going to school on Good Friday was wretched. My mind was entirely somewhere else... gotta love these impersonal state institutions!! (sob)
Happy Easter!!!
Speaking of Bill, I saw him on the road this morning as I was driving in to work. He was right behind me, and he waved at me. I suspect that it was not because he recognized the back of my head (after all, I would be hard-pressed to definitively identify a person solely from the top of the back of their head seen through multiple panes of glass), but rather because I have a "Whitworth Alumni" license plate frame on the back of the car. Still, it was a nice gesture.
