[Live Blogging] Thursday :: Willing to Laugh at Ourselves

Jenelle — Wed, 30 Jul 2008 06:30:23 +0000

by Kelly Crull

Family Fun Night is apparently an excuse for just about anything.

Back in 2002 when I attended SCO I missed that line in our values statement that says, “we’re willing to laugh at ourselves.” I’m not sure it would have meant much to me at that point. It did a few years later, however, when I was on a team in Madrid and we were in conflict. I remember how sometimes we would get stuck, with no idea how to move forward, and we would laugh at ourselves. The tension would break, and even though we hadn’t solved anything, at least we had laughed together. That was worth something.

Three years later brings us to tonight’s Family Fun Night, and maybe as trivial and silly as the evening was, it was significant for me to see two of us from that original Madrid team putting whipped cream down each other’s pants, and still after all this time, laughing together. For me, our giggling was a hymn of praise.
