| How can you be mad at someone for being themselves? What causes it and what can be done to fix it? Why does it feel so weird to know it is not someone's fault, but at the same time be irritated? What does it take to fix this? Is it just time and a lapse of memory? Is it going off even when they don't deserve it? Is it something else? It is a dissonance that should not exist. Why do we need to experience it? Why do I need to experience it? Is it jaded if you still feel something? Is there more to it? Can you read the person like a book, but know that noone is a masterpiece novel? Are you disappointed that the novel does your expectations? What if you have come to know the writing style in the book? What if you can pick out Irony, Foreshadowing, What Punctuation the Author will use at what instance? If you know the novel that well, does it get boring? Am I just rambling now? Pretend that you are reading a series that is basically the same in each novel. would you get angry if the character did as always? I don't think you would. What makes this different? Why do I act this way at a predictable situation? Irritated and not sure why. | | |
| I have been distracted when I am not distracted by something else. I am not sure what is distracting me though. My eyes want to tear up and I do not know what is bothering me. Diversions bring me happiness and so does morning, but the day seems to drag me down. I am keeping up with my homework and all. I am trying o make my life easier and actually doing it, I believe. I only have one class tomorrow and am done with the homework. I got to hang out with an awesome friend from last year at dinner. Met someone new at lunch. Have been oddly social, and had my stuffed animal associate accompany me to class today. Am I too focused still? Am I not social enough? What is wrong? I even met a friend from Wilberforce that was at campus. He is awesome and commented on my beard. I think that I miss God. I want to spend more time with Him and do not know when. I miss Him. I know it sounds weird, but I believe that it is true. I love to talk to God and when we have classes my spiritual life actually suffers instead of being strengthened. WHAT ON EARTH DOES THAT MEAN? What can I do about it. I want to be with Him and need to find when. I miss Him and have the desire to make time, but no time to make. What do I do? I realize something though. I can make time by ending this. Later. | | |
| Just something I thought about on the way to dinner one night: There are two main reasons that we will not assosciate with other people. The first on is that we think that we are not good enough for them, and the second that we think they are not good enough for us. For both, we can look to the example of Christ. He loves us even though we are still sinners. He loves no matter what. So the proud must become humble and realize that we are all in the same boat. At the same time. The self effacing must come to an understanding that they do matter. They have opinions and are loved in spite of their faults. Some think too high of themselves and some thing too low. We must remember that we can be as equally guilty or as equally innocent in the eyes of God. | | |
| So, I am back at Cedarville and happy to be here. I have a large amount of work that I will be doing for my classes, but I will try to make time to write. As for now I still have about 50 pages to read and 3-4 to write for tomorrow so I will put a quote that I like and leave it at that for now.
"I have a sense that the secret to Jesus'
ministry is hidden somewhere in that lonely place
where He went to pray,
early in the morning, long before
dawn... Somewhere we know that without
a lonely place actions quickly become
empty gestures...
The careful balance between silence and
words, withdrawl and involvement,
distance and closeness, solitude and
community forms the basis for the
Christian life and should therefore be the
subject of our most personal attention."

| So, I have had quite a bit of fun since my last post. Last night, I went bowlong and sucked horribly, but still had fun. Then, today I had to work, but it gave me a reason to get up and see what was going on with the competition still. After that, I went pretty much straight to the Mountain Man competition. It was fun, but a little stupid. I got a great picture of a guy tossing an alternator over his head though. After that, I had a little down time before I went to see Romeo and Juliet. It was a good production of it. I went with Anna, Sharon, and Ezra. I then had another break after that and then went to dinner with Anna and Sharon and met up with a group of people. We had an interesting discussion over dinner and then had to part to do "homework." I have yet to truly accomplish anything this weekend, but I need to and should tomorrow.
