Free Parking, Free Soft Drinks, Free Sun Screen


I often hear a theme park commercial that closes with children yelling, “Free parking, free soft drinks, free sunscreen!”  It reminds me of a great fact of life; God expects wildly extravagant living of us.  Why would anyone make theme park earth and not expect us to exuberantly explore it.  Besides all the rides and attractions there’s free parking, we can sit down anywhere.  It’s loaded with food and drink, peaches and milk come to mind and free sunscreen; shade.  And there are all these characters dressed in costume and we all have phones so we can take selfies with all our favorites (Do we understand how much more fascinating a human is than Sleeping Beauty?)  It strikes me as odd that people seem so bored with existence.  There’s more meaning in a rock than an IPhone, its been around longer, will last longer and you can throw it.
