Christmas

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, 

that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

- John 3:16

Splendour in the Grass

Ah, could I lay me down in this long grass
And close my eyes, and let the quiet wind
Blow over me - I am so tired, so tired
Of passing pleasant places! All my life,
Following Care along the dusty road,
Have I looked back at loveliness and sighed;
Yet at my hand an unrelenting hand
Tugged ever, and I passed. All my life long
Over my shoulder have I looked at peace;
And now I fain would lie in this long grass
And close my eyes.

- Edna St. Vincent Millay, Journey

Gloom

“The truth is that our finest moments are most likely to occur when we are feeling deeply uncomfortable, unhappy, or unfulfilled. For it is only in such moments, propelled by our discomfort, that we are likely to step out of our ruts and start searching for different ways or truer answers.”

- M. Scott Peck

I wish, i would be able to believe it, but I'm personally convinced, that religion is something, which was made up, to satisfy the human curiosity, when we were unable to try to achieve existential answers through logic and science - But then again, it's my perspective, and I'm - just like everyone else - not able to state my point of view as the "thruth".

I'm goin' through some rough times in a relationship right now with a girl I love more than any material thing on this earth and this song is one of the few things that keeps me goin' through the day. This song is practically my life's theme song...

The love of my life died January 3rd of this year. I thought that I had finally got what I was wishing for but he was taken from me. Now I am wish for love to find me again. I wish on all the stars at night that true love finds me again. Till then I will keep wishing. I hope everyone finds true love and cherishes it because you never know when it will be taken from you. There is true love out there for everyone just be patient it will come.
