Summary
Wake somebody up with that question today.
Wake yourself up with that question today.
Am I having fun?
while you're sending those emails,
while you're making that daily commute,
and then shift into the Fun.
Sit up into the Fun, into the Smile.
Keep finding your smile.
Keep smiling your smile.
Keep giving your smile,
while you feel God Smiling back,
Hint: Your smile is His.
I Love you,
Nik

"A Prayer Against Fear
God, too often, I find myself overwhelmed by circumstances that are beyond my control. Too often, I am easily distracted by things that don't matter. I know that as I step into a new season I will face obstacles that make me want to give up. When this happens, give me the faith I need to cling to the truth: that Your peace and protection aren't based on my feelings or circumstances but on Your character and faithfulness.
In Jesus' name, Amen.'

| 0:56.0 | Are you having fun? |
| 1:02.6 | And I laughed and said, yes, I am and I made a mental note. |
| 1:05.8 | Like how beautiful that question is. |
| 1:10.3 | Stops the mind in its tracks, not how are you? Which often feels like a dead question and yields a dead answer, but are you having fun? |
| 1:16.0 | It's like asking, are you alive? |
| 1:18.0 | I immediately heard the silence in that space with that elevator music playing in the |
| 1:26.0 | background. My shoulders immediately came down more. It reinforced my smile. |

| 1:57.9 | Our worries what we need to happen. What we need to see, how we don't want to feel. We don't want to feel. We're too busy |
| 2:08.0 | avoiding life instead of relaxing into it, relaxing into the insecurity, |
| 2:16.3 | relaxing into the pain, relaxing into the grief, |
| 2:19.3 | letting go and smiling. |
| 2:24.0 | Ravi Shan Kars said, measure your success by the number of hours you smile. |
