Week #35 8/26/12-9/2/12

The capital of Maryland is Annapolis.

Annapolis was actually the temporary capital of the United States from 1783-1784.

Physical: 20 push ups

Personal: Go to a church service

 

Let me first state that I am a very spiritual person.  I pray morning, throughout the day, and nightly to the "God" of my understanding.  I wanted to preface that in order for everyone to understand this challenge.  I personally do not believe that any single religion holds a market on the true "power of the universe."  That being said, I am in complete support of however you plug yourself in.  I went to Seaside Chapel in Carolina Beach, NC.  I will say that the congregation was very welcoming.  They dedicated part of the service to a "meet and greet" and easily more than 20 people introduced themselves to me.  The sermon got a little long in the tooth, but like I said before, I am not here to judge how anyone gets it.  I also took communion, because I get the symbolism.  I didn't want to stand up and say, "No thanks."  Overall, I will continue on my path of spiritual enlightenment which consists of rigorous honesty and a willingness to accept things that I cannot change.
