Zee & Zim — G. & Jim

---

Many years ago, my dad wrote a book. I don’t know its title, and I’m pretty sure it hasn’t been published (not yet anyhow). I haven’t read it (yet!). However, I do know that it is the story of a pair of characters named Zee and Zim. Throughout the book, Zee regales Zim with many, many stories. And finally, later in the book, when Zee has finished with the stories, Zim sets out to share the stories with other people.

I find the names of the characters interesting. First off, “Jim”, which is phonetically similar to “Zim” is a pretty common nickname for a person named “James”. I also find the names of the characters interesting because, back in 2011, when I was a new believer (in God), I often referred to God by the nickname “G.”, which bears phonetic similarity to “Zee”. I don’t call him that anymore, but those of you that listen in on the Playback later will hear that I did refer to him as such quite a bit for about 3–6 months (in my best estimate). Side note: I was doing this long before I ever became aware of the social trend of people calling each other “G.” as an abbreviated term for “Gangster”.

I also find the plot of the Zee and Zim story interesting because this is what God did with me. He spent several years sharing many stories with me and fragments of many others. At this point, I’m just barely getting started talking a little about those stories, but I fully expect that soon I will become very occupied and stay so for years to come, sharing those stories and story fragments.

This is all I have on this topic for now. Hopefully, I will have the opportunity to read the book soon! I have no idea yet if there may be additional interesting content within the story.

God bless everyone!
