News Of The Butt! A Nod To The Holy Post Podcast

News of the Butt!

On The Holy Post podcast, Phil Vischer occasionally does “news of the butt,” which is so silly and goofy and I love it. It’s just a little news segment with the news having something to do with butts and he sings a little song reminiscent of Veggie Tales - I have it in my head right now!

Anyway, I made a coloring page about it because

The Charge of the Light Brigade

BY ALFRED, LORD TENNYSON

I

Half a league, half a league,

Half a league onward,

All in the valley of Death

Rode the six hundred.

“Forward, the Light Brigade!

Charge for the guns!” he said.

Into the valley of Death

Rode the six hundred.

II

“Forward, the Light Brigade!”

Was there a man dismayed?

Not though the soldier knew

Someone had blundered.

Theirs not to make reply,

Theirs not to reason why,

Theirs but to do and die.

Into the valley of Death

Rode the six hundred.

III

Cannon to right of them,

Cannon to left of them,

Cannon in front of them

Volleyed and thundered;

Stormed at with shot and shell,

Boldly they rode and well,

Into the jaws of Death,

Into the mouth of hell

Rode the six hundred.

IV

Flashed all their sabres bare,

Flashed as they turned in air

Sabring the gunners there,

Charging an army, while

All the world wondered.

Plunged in the battery-smoke

Right through the line they broke;

Cossack and Russian

Reeled from the sabre stroke

Shattered and sundered.

Then they rode back, but not

Not the six hundred.

V

Cannon to right of them,

Cannon to left of them,

Cannon behind them

Volleyed and thundered;

Stormed at with shot and shell,

While horse and hero fell.

They that had fought so well

Came through the jaws of Death,

Back from the mouth of hell,

All that was left of them,

Left of six hundred.

VI

When can their glory fade?

O the wild charge they made!

All the world wondered.

Honour the charge they made!

Honour the Light Brigade,

Noble six hundred!

Rest is not Lazy

I woke up at 3am in a panic. Just a little anxiety knocking, waking me up with waves of fast pumping adrenaline.

A couple of hours later, I was able to fall asleep again and a few hours after that I was still in bed - awake, but exhausted.

(If this sort of thing doesn't happen to you, know that it is exhausting. It will leave you wiped, like you ran ten miles instead of just laying there staring at the ceiling.)

Do you know what my first thought was, laying there in bed somewhere between 8 and 9am?

”If someone saw me like this, at this time, they’d think I was lazy.”

Before I could stop it, a ripple of shame ran through me about being in bed.

Even after years of beating truth into my mind and soul, these thoughts still come at me.

Even though I KNOW rest is good, I still fight guilt and shame over times where I am “not productive.”

Even though rest after a panic experience isn’t just good but VITAL, I still fight guilt and shame about taking that time to heal and rest.

Rest is not lazy, friends. It is necessary, it is vital, it is something to celebrate, something to schedule, something to encourage.

Rest. Is. Not. Lazy. - Stevie Swift

Some awesome quotes about rest

Rest until you feel like playing, then play until you feel like resting, period. Never do anything else. - Martha Beck

It's very important that we re-learn the art of resting and relaxing. Not only does it help prevent the onset of many illnesses that develop through chronic tension and worrying; it allows us to clear our minds, focus, and find creative solutions to problems. - Thich Nhat Hanh

We humans have lost the wisdom of genuinely resting and relaxing. We worry too much. We don't allow our bodies to heal, and we don't allow our minds and hearts to heal. - Thich Nhat Hanh

I get a lot of the ideas when I'm resting - either when I'm meditating or getting some kind of work done on my back, like physical therapy or acupuncture. That's where I get my best ideas, maybe because I'm balancing my body. - Katy Perry
