You Never Know
I bet it isn’t just me. Whether a school subject or tedious event you wonder why you’re subjected to such a thing. When will you never need to repeat this?
I learned this week you never know.
Our son earned a place on the junior high academic challenge team at school. When he told us all I could picture was that episode from the Brady Bunch but the praise is these teens were prayed up and as confident as you can get being recorded for television. The questions shot all over the place. Then came the question that answered my question.
Those mindless facts and experiences have purpose.
The question asked what movie starts off with the song, What Time is It?
Our son buzzed in because he knew the answer. His little sister played High School Musical 2 more times than I think I could count. I know the movie by heart. I’ve told others I could replay the whole movie as all the actors. Trust me, he complained as much as we did.
But it had purpose, because he got the answer!
So you never know. That mundane thing you are sure is going to be the end of you just might be a question on a gameshow for you.
Or not.
But I still thought that was a great illustration.
I’m waiting on Pre Calculus to come back and redeem me some way…
