Although his love has always been there it took me a while to realize it. To realize the depths of it, and why he sent his son Jesus Christ to this beautiful earth. The whole plan of salvation is progressive. Nothing I do, the progress I make will be perfect the first time, but because of the atonement of Jesus Christ, and what he did for us, I can make progress. Perfectly imperfect progress, and what a joy that is. Happy Sabbath. God loves you.

  14. Progressive is an eerie word that shakes me a bit. Because what is progress? It’s often difficult to determine, especially in the moment with no time to reflect. So by calling something progressive, how can we be so sure that it actually is? Because, you know, often times it’s not.

  26. “A progressively thinking man, isn’t he?” He swirled his black coffee inside the silly Hello Kitty mug. I stared absentmindedly at the mug for a few seconds before realizing that the mug was mine. My daughter had given it to me for Mother’s Day. Why did he have it now? How did he get his filthy hands on it? I had guarded it in the most securely protected safe I could find! My pulse quickened as I looked up at his face, a smirk distorting his already loathsome features.

    His hand twitched, spilling coffee all over the rug. “Damn it!”
    I snatched the mug from his hand and exited the room, grinning. She’ll love my story.

My vision blurs and the world goes dark.

  32. People do not want progressive thinkers in their office. They do not want innovators. They do not want entrepreneurs. They want yes-men, okay-women, and whatever-you-say-drones who appreciate the status quo because it gives them an extra five dollars an hour compared to their last minimum wage job.

  33. “Aren’t you the gril from the Progressive commercials?”

    She snapped her grin into place, like snapping the back of a bra. “That’s me!” She mimed holding a megaphone.

    “Wow cool, you’re so funny on TV.”

    As they walked away, she let her smile relax back into her face. She rubbed her cheeks.

Everything is up and down, back and forth, and it’s all carrying you along a road toward the end and the beginning of the world. Don’t give up on the road.

  38. My ties with the world beyond my myriad walls is somewhat…, progressive. Or, certainly, a simple string of progression, if nothing else. I have a different outlook that that which I had the year before, the week before. Occasionally, the day before, the hour. It is something of a nuisance.

    The air becomes subtlety
    An progressive realisation-
    An awakening of love, loss
    Bitter hope…
