Here is a spoiler alert for life.

I'm thinking about writing a book of these.

Like, spoiler alert, you know what?

There is no inner ring.

If you're trying to be with the cool people,

if you do get in with the cool people,

then you're going to want in with the other cool people.

And inside that cool people group,

and then you'll never get there there's

no there there's no there there s lewis wrote about that famously but it's really true you can see the

people who are on what you think are the inner ring chafing grinding to get into the other

inner ring get invited to that party and then it's this thing and those people there's just

no there's no finish line there.

So might as well enjoy the people around you.

Might as well.

People around you today.

That's the ring.

People around you today enjoy those people and might as well be content.

It's true.

A lot of people when they think about Jesus, they think, okay, I need to get myself in a place where I feel bad for Jesus.
