DISCOVER YOUR SPIRIT ANIMAL! Find out which Spirit Animal would bestow its magic on you. Pick the best answers from the choices below, then click "Find My Animal!" to see your results. 1. How do you feel about crowds? Love 'em - the more, the merrier! Invigorating, in small doses. I prefer small, tight-knit groups. I'd rather spend the day in the dentist's chair. 2. What's the best way to comfort a sick friend? Tell them a funny story—laughter is the best medicine. Nurture them with chicken soup or an economy-sized bottle of aspirin. Just be there for them. Send a card—they might be contagious. 3. How do you respond when insulted? Fire back immediately. Stand up for yourself calmly but firmly. Back down, then plot revenge. Shrug or laugh it off. 4. Do others often seek your advice? Yes, on practical matters. Yes, on emotional matters. Yes, on spiritual matters. No—they underestimate me (or they know not to bother me). 5. Favorite hobbies? Outdoorsy stuff—hiking, fishing, or hunting. Arts and crafts. Daydreaming, reading, or writing. Playing sports. 6. Do you have (or want) a mate for life? Yes! True love is forever. I'm faithful to my mate, but if we broke up, I'd learn to love again. I play the field, but occasionally have a boyfriend/girlfriend. I believe in the 3 F's: Find, F***, Forget. 7. Favorite spectator sport? Team sports like football, baseball, soccer, basketball, hockey Figure skating, gymnastics, or equestrian events Tennis or golf Politics 8. At a party, which room do you gravitate to? The kitchen, to see if I can help out The porch, to get fresh air and chat quietly with a few folks (or chat up a hottie) Family room, to watch the game or tell stories with the crowd Which room is the food in? 9. Favorite subject in school? English Art Phys Ed Math/Science 10. How would you feel if your job required you to relocate? Bring it on! New experiences make life worth living. I'd move, but only if the new place were better. I'd move, but only if the new place were similar to my current home. They can take that job and shove it. I ain't goin' nowhere. 11. Do you listen to your head or your heart? Head. It's closer to my ears. My head consults my heart before making an executive decision. Feelings should inform intuition. The heart knows best. 12. How gullible are you? I can spot a lie with my eyes closed. I'm a skeptic, but I take most people's words at face value. I'm my friends' favorite practical joke target. I've bought the Brooklyn Bridge. Twice. 13. How often would you visit family if distance weren't an issue? At least once a week. Once a month. Only on holidays. Only at funerals. 14. In most situations, are you a leader or a follower? I always seem to end up in charge. I choose my leadership positions carefully; mostly I follow. Follower. Let someone else get us in and out of messes. Neither. I prefer to stay on the outside. 15. Favorite animal story? Dr. Doolittle Call of the Wild The Black Stallion Babe jerismithready.com

28 “What do you think? There was a man who had two sons. He went to the first and said, ‘Son, go and work today in the vineyard.’ 29 “‘I will not,’ he answered, but later he changed his mind and went. 30 “Then the father went to the other son and said the same thing. He answered, ‘I will, sir,’ but he did not go. 31 “Which of the two did what his father wanted?” “The first,” they answered. Jesus said to them, “Truly I tell you, the tax collectors and the prostitutes are entering the kingdom of God ahead of you. 32 For John came to you to show you the way of righteousness, and you did not believe him, but the tax collectors and the prostitutes did. And even after you saw this, you did not repent and believe him. (Matthew 21: )
