what makes you come alive

In honor of hubs having his birthday today, here is a letter about him to him, inspired by Seth and Amber Haines.

Dear Andy,

You dwell in a world of possibility. An idea finds its way into your head, and you explore it to great extent. You learn all the opportunities, all the challenges. You are an explorer in every sense of the term. You delve into public statements and philosophical treatises, into practical knowledge and into people. You quickly discover places and make haste to see as much of it as you can – you always want to make it to the mountain top.

But most, you explore truth. You come alive as you learn and finds words to articulate what is true and beautiful and good. You have fuel in your heart and mind, compelling you through a desire for everyone to know what you have found. You are a seeker and a finder, and a teller of story. You’re earnest and whole-hearted, and you pursue the person of God.

This is when you come alive.
