Hopefully this strikes you as funny as it did me. I was sitting in a wonderful roomy emergency exit row on JetBlue flight 1401, still on the tarmac in Austin. As we accelerated down the runway and began liftoff, things got bumpy and for some reason, I got really nervous. (I'm usually pretty relaxed about flying and turbulence.) So my brain grabbed around for some comforting prayer to say (not out loud, thank goodness.) I started saying the 3rd step prayer to myself, but in my panicky state, here is how it came out:
"God, I offer myself to thee
To build with me and make of me what thy will;
Relieve me of the sausage of self.... wait, that's not right....
relieve me of the sausage...
oh crap... amen."
Isn't that a nice prayer?
