Consistent Christian life In my last post I discussed the impact of my parent's decision to be faithful church attenders. I want to build on that in saying that they not only attended church, but they loved the fellowship with other believers. They were not legalistic in their attitude, but they...
Intellectually, some of you may argue that, threesomes are the non-declaration aspect of a date. Two is acceptable and three is down right gluttonous, reeking of debauchery. So amnesia prevails in your office the very next day: my date,oh, he, as in singular,he, was great and the sex was awesome/not...
What is the biggest lie you've told? Submitted by lazywong. I'd say it's when I've said I prayed or attended church when I didn't. I know that seems like a simple, harmless thing...but really, it's the absolute worst thing I could do. I'm playing with my eternal life here, it's like Russian...
A sketch I did a while back has been tickling my dreams, floating in and out of my mind at the oddest times... I finally up and painted it this weekend while the little ones napped and hubby worked on college courses. This is yet another one that was kind of born from thinking about this existential...
What have you been putting off all weekend? I have put off going to church. I have put off washing my clothes. I have put off telling the truth. I have put off being honest with myself and others, opening up to people, freeing my mind from such insane issues to just sit back and enjoy life, and most...
I'm in awe of Hunter S. Thompson. he was not only a great writer, but he pretty much did and said what he wanted. I enjoy and admire that kind of honesty. I try to be honest, but I end up sounding like a bitch. Or I'm pretty much nagging or yelling. I can be a nasty person to be around. I'm not sure...
[35] Read 1 Samuel 8:1–5; 12:1–25 "You are old, and your sons do not walk in your ways; now appoint a king to lead us, such as all the other nations have." 1 Samuel 8:5 NIV * * * Samuel was an honest, godly man who led Israel faithfully, but his sons did not follow in his ways. We are not told...
A successful live means you've got realistic expectations of yourself. You don't have to be the perfect partner / friend / colleague / parent. People that are unreasonably demanding, put themselves under pressure and might become stressed or burned out. It can also influence others. If for example...
On my honor I will do my best To do my duty to God and my country and to obey the Scout Law; To help others at all times; To keep myself physically strong, mentally awake, and morally straight. At 12, Aaron wore the uniform and said the pledge, but he could never get past "morally straight" without...
My greatest weakness is my inability to express my feelings. But I did it... and it was hard as hell. At least I can breath now and the butterflies that had taken up residence in my stomach have migrated to someone else's belly...
It seems as though every state is making it mandatory for you to wear your seatbelt while in the car. Kentucky likes to use the catch phrase "click it, or ticket" as well as many others. They don't say "wear your seat belt because it is safe", but rather, "wear it or you'll get a ticket." A simple...
There was this simple story about neighbors. The poor man had a rich neighbor and since both have completely different lifestyles, they're not that too close with each other. But one day, the rich man got envious of the poor man because he noticed that his children are not as healthy as that of the...
The boys and I were studying Othello today (Act I) and noting that everyone in the story trusts Iago who is the least trustworthy character in the play ... and how everyone at the beginning suspects Othello of being a savage barbarian warlock when in fact he is about the only character in the play...

I make no bones about the fact that I don't understand women. They are an enigma, a puzzle. Even worse then sodoku's. I hate sodoku's. Anything math related I hate. I think that women must be based in some mathmatical equation. Not that I hate women per sey. I just don't really like them. The only...
Life is not a joke, but some of us have chosen to live it that way. Everyday should be like a “mortal combat” for we are to fight great temptations that come our way. Sad to say most of us just let those temptations conquer us…for fame, pride, vanity? Whatever reasons we have, we are losing...
From the Vox: "The rest of America should look at the truckers and join in. Not just for fuel prices but also for the lack of leadership and lack of morals in our judicial, political and congressional systems. We have crooks and elitists running the country. When are we going to wake up and get...
