Compliments at Church
On Sunday I wore my kilt as per usual but with a different flair. Rather than the dress shirt and waist coat I was a little more "punk" as my wife would say and wore steel toe 8" black boots, my album's logo t-shirt, and a cool black belt with a gothic cross on the buckle. I got a lot of nice compliments on the kilt. One guy who hadn't been in in a while asked what the special occasion was and I replied, "I wear it every Sunday". One of the youth group asked if I was Irish and I told him about my Scottish grandmother. He just said, "cool". and many of the young ladies in the teen youth group have said they like it. Even the older folks have complimented me on my attire (when wearing my argyle jacket). This church has been pretty wonderful about things like that. Appearances are not as important as what's inside a person and they love even the "weirdos" like me like family. In central Pennsylvania being welcomed with open arms by the older crowd in spite of being "different" seems rare but this is a wonderful congregation.
Just thought I'd share something positive,
Hugh
