It’s true.
The realization hit me tonight. I’ve been seeing a few of the same faces rather frequently for the past few months. Everywhere I turn, they’re close at hand. And I’m not quite sure what to make of it. They seem to be following me. They have pictures of me. They know where I sleep. They know where I work. They know where I eat and when I shower. They know who I talk to and when I’m sick. They even know when I change my wardrobe.
…oh. my. gosh.
There’s no “think” about it! I am being stalked!!
I mean, these five people watch and document my every move, day in and day out. How else could I define it? My current life does not happen without them watching it. They know my family, my friends and my co-workers. They know my past, my present and my future. One of them even “knows all of my [quirky] sounds!”
Someone, please!!! HELP ME!!!
I’m being stalked…
….by my teammates!!
They won’t leave me alone! I can’t take a poop without them knowing about it and considering feedbacking me on it later! They’re in all of my pictures and they consume 90% of my daily conversation quota. I am constantly in the presence of, at least, one of them. And, if I’m not, they feedback me on that! Wherever I am, they are with me. Whatever I do, they do with me. Whomever I encounter, they encounter with me. They know my personality and my fears. They know my stubbornness, my laughter, my heart and my dreams. They know where I’ve been and where I’m going.
I cannot get away from them.
I am at their mercy.
Oh Father! What is this craziness?!?!! And how do I get away?!
“You’re not meant to get away, love. You’re meant to remain in this vulnerable position, ‘at their mercy,’ for it is a partial picture of how the relationship between you and I works. And just as I show you grace, love and mercy in our relationship, so are your teammates in your relationships with them. Enjoy them. Love them. Walk with them.
And do not leave them alone.”
So…I have Your permission to stalk them?
“Hah. As it relates to this ridiculous blog and your twisted mind, yes. J But, for the record, may I point out that it’s not for ‘stalking’ as much as it is for participating in an intense form of community that, again, reflects My heart for all of you?”
Sure!! …whatever You say, Boss!! (*Muahahahaha!!!!*)
[Team En Gedi: it has been, and will continue to be, a pleasure to sta-, um, walk in community with (*wink, wink*) you!! I love you all!!!]
