I don’t think I’m the only one when I say there are external forces at work in my life that make me do the things I do.  Some of the time the external force is God and sometimes it’s not.  When it is God the results could be joyous or they could be quite horrendous.  [...]


Just right

25Jan07

I was reading today and was struck by a particular verse in Ecclesiastes chapter 7.  It’s verse 13 which says:
“Consider what God has done:
Who can straighten
what he has made crooked?
There really is no context since Solomon just seems to be spouting out bits and pieces of wisdom that everybody shoud pay attention to every now [...]


Words

24Jan07

I wanted to write about something and couldn’t really think of anything else so here it is…a post on words. Sometimes they are complicated and other times they are simple. There can be a lot or a few. Different words have different meanings, but most of the time the words being said [...]


If you could call any powers I have super human powers it would probably be my power of justification.  I can justify just about anything with at least some sort of logic to back up my reasoning.  My arguments aren’t always solid, but boy can I justify them.  As I lay here in bed not [...]


Two posts…pretty much back to back. Both basically brought about by anger/frustration. You may be happy to know that the book issues have been somewhat remedied. And now for part deux. My roommate Craig says I sound gay and bitchy and a bit like a theatre person for complaining about this. [...]

“What are you doin’?” is quite possibly one of my favorite quotes from a teacher I had in high school.  He was well known for terrorizing students with his antics, sarcasm, and mental abuse in general.  This particular quote is actually a really interesting one.  What am I doing?  Right now?  In life?  The next [...]


Dare to risk

11Jan07

My friend Christopher and I were discussing how neither of us would be able to go out to LT this summer for various reasons and the main reason for each of us being money.  There are clearly other factors involved in such a decision, but unfortunately money is a big part of the decision.  The [...]


What next

08Jan07

I am a different person day to day lately.  It’s kind of envigorating and frightening.  I enjoy the days where I don’t know if I’m going to be completely wacky, totally secluded and withdrawn, angry and bitter at the world, or completely and utterly sentimental and emotional.  This has to be awkward for my friends.  [...]
