OK I'm a bleeding heart liberal. There you've got me pegged now. I feel sorry for those on the fringe. I support windpower over coal and gas. I'm a bit green but I need to research more on that.
I'm highly sensitive especially if someone disagrees with me. I will use political correctness to...
I'm obese ...ouch.
112 kg and 174 cm now
at age 18 I was 70 kg and 174 cm.
At least I haven't grown taller!
But the reality hit me yesterday when my partner videod the dog and me at the park.
My profile side on .......ouch.
When I look in the mirror at home I never look at myself side on. Just...
I really admire that in devoted Christians. And in marriages too of course . People who never say an ill word about their partner. Never tempted to spice up an otherwise dull conversation, with some hot gossip about their partner's bad habits.
I am just starting to realise now that it is a one...
I grew up as a cradle Catholic and attended Catholic schools most of my childhood. I think idealism is part of being a Christian. Its there in the Bible and in the Catechism. Try to be like Christ. Follow the rules, the commandments , especially the "love" ones.
But my personality is predisposed...
I know his personal life is nothing to admire but his humour has always appealed to me.
"I would never want to join a club that would accept someone like me as a member." (might've been Groucho Marx originally)
"I don't want to achieve mortality through my work. I want to achieve immortality...
"Religion is an opiate for the masses".
I often think about that saying or cliché I guess it has become.
And the other one:
"God didn't create man. Man created God."
I'll be the first to admit that I need God to exist. Without Him ,this life seems meaningless. And lonely too.
I used to put my...
What a concept!
I hate to say this, but eternal anything sounds either dull or monumentally cruel.
I am more inclined to think the next life is just another phase like this one. Like Reincarnation in Buddhism. Except coming back as an animal is kind of far-fetched I think. :)
Now before you...
"Life is meaningless. there is no God. there is no afterlife. If I die, that's it. Nothing."
I'm not promoting suicide here. On the contrary. As a Christian, it would be a total backhander to the Creator. I was given life. its not for me to take it.
I see in the local news some guy killed his...
As the years go by I am getting more and more obsessive. Fussy. Others' behaviour can easily trigger annoyance. My annoyance is self-righteous and arrogant. "Why cant they be compassionate, sensitive and big picture minded like me?" :)
Why cant they see reality like me? Its obvious to me. Why...
Political Correctness
I'd just like to make it clear that this blog is aimed at no one . I have nothing against anyone. Not even Santa Claus. I am completely free of any prejudice. My language is clear and precise. I hate no one, and have no potato chips on my shoulder. No teeth to grind. No...
I know. I know. I just know.
I can see God working in you.
No one else can see it but I can.
God is at work in you.
You suffer for Him.
You are ignored by most.
But someone gave me the X ray vision
To see your beauty.
And I gotta say.
its a privilege
a privilege
a privilege.
That's not love! That's delusional!
We all nod our heads. 'yeah, Ok whatever, that makes sense, you guys would know better anyway, you're scholars",
we just accept things without noticing that little question mark in our heads. And how is a Father sacrificing His only Son, somehow related to...
When no one says anything and keeps their cards close to their chest. I find this atmosphere can be just as challenging. Who is your ally? Who is your enemy? So many masks. But what do you really think?
If I am having a problem with someone, I need to consult one person, a trusted confidant. if...
I cant hear you Lord
I cant see you
I don't want to see you anyway
You just remind me of my lack.
I'm drowning
Drowning in my own sin
I want to say "rescue me"
but I think you're tired of my insincerity
I cant breathe
I'm sinking
I've almost given up
on you
because I think
you've given up on me...
Yet I find the child within me has more wisdom than the adult!
Or the child in others triggers the child in me?
When I was in my twenties, I tried to be very serious and "adult".
What a bore I mustve appeared to others.
I know responsibility is important. But some people can handle...
Popularity
How important is it to you? Or was it to you?
A certain amount of popularity is important in the workplace for instance. At school and college too. Our reputation is part of our survival.
How about CF?
As Christians, we are not supposed to care. Keep God happy. Not other people...
"this youtube clip has gone viral"
we hear that phrase very often these days.
Does it ever occur to you that the word "viral" might be inappropriate?
I've suffered a virus. It can lay me low for several days.The word "virus" only conjures up negative feelings about something that is basically...
Well yes of course I do. I still think about my childhood and the bullies seem worse now than they were then.
Sometimes I think habits are the culprit. Habits and patterns. We create patterns of behaviour in our life that can dictate results. Just like karma in Buddhism. Reap what we sow in...
I loved my boss. he was like a big brother figure. He couldn't understand why I liked him so much. I forgave him all his flaws. I was blind to them. His larger than life personality hypnotised me. I drank with him more than worked with him. I know he didn't think much of my work ethic. In fact I...
I have a tendency to live in the past. I think this occurs because I am only part-time now and the workplaces that live on in my mind were full-time positions.
In my mind there were all those villains. The ones I would equate close to Satan. Godless people in my view. Cunning game-players who...
