Am-2....You're going down little robot man

Today nothing exciting happened. I know that I'm not supposed to say that but it's true. I was at school all day then went straight to work all night. And I must admitt that I've had some pretty amazing moments with some friends today but conversations with my friends would be my highlight everyday!
There was a video in my Abnormal Psych class that made my day FOR NO REASON! It was on autism in children. And they were studying a "normal" child, a child with autism and a child with down syndrome. And what happened was that a toy robot came into the room and the adults got all freaked out and the child was supposed to see how the adults were responding and follow suit. So when they were doing this...everyone had sort of their "textbook" responses. But when it came to the child with down syndrome...He saw the robot coming...saw that the adults were freaking out and for a second he looked scared. But then ALL OF A SUDDEN...he runs to the robot and kicks it right over! It was so encouraging! Because we as people who love Christ just need to, for no text book reason, RUN AND KICK at the stupid robot! And we aren't supposed to make sense all the time and we aren't supposed to have all the answers and we're supposed to be taking risks that make us look like idiots but end with God showing up and telling the world who He is!
Time for sleep
