My birthday

today, May 5th, is my birthday.  but it's not really mine because i share it with so many millions of other people.  how insignificant i am.  how insignificant you are.

engie just had her wisdom teeth taken out.  it went without much issue, so far.  praise God for that.

we were gonna watch Happily Never After, but all rented out, so Thank You For Smoking instead.  it wasn't the most politically incorrect movie, but it was honest like little miss sunshine.  makes you wonder, what if people can be honest and get away with it in the real world.  if people actually appreciate honesty, there'd be less lies.

today is my birthday.  i don't even know what that means.  longevity and fertility is supposed to be an indication of a blessed life.  in this day and age, is it more blessed to have a short life and have no kids?  definitely maybe.

but i am blessed.  i just don't think about it enough.  oh eternity, how you make most things insignificant.

i'm happy to be alive.  i don't know why.  it's such an odd feeling.  i kind of like it.

do i think too much?  this question pops in to my head: is purpose an illusion?  after 28 years of my life, can i say that i'm attending some kind of real purpose?  can we, mere created beings, have real purposes for ourselves?  what difference would it make if we chased after the wind all our lives?  it is a philosophical suicide to believe that there is no God, is it?  questions, i love questions.  lol... how awesome is life.  how unreal at the same time.

the value of anything

what's the value of any particular thing?  in God's eyes... in human eyes...

what makes a diamond more valuable than a wooden chair?

in solomon's days, gold's worth was nothing cause he had it all. 

how much is a ton of gold worth in God's eyes compared with a strand of my hair?

money is just the common currency for value.  value is what we're really after isn't it?  so why do we chase after valueless things as if they're valuable?  why do we submit to society's view on value? 

is a ps3 more valuable than the wii?  is it the other way around now?

how do you measure value?  if you had $1,000,000, would you still have a million in value after you've exchanged it for goods and services?

would you have a few well cut rocks? or would you have a few life's worth of eternity?

if we shut our eyes, will we not see the blinding light of eternity?  is that why we keep our eyes open and preoccupied?

then, close your eyes already; you've kept them open for way too long.

we create the lies we believe

everywhere i look are people believing in random lies.. since we're surrounded by lies, all we have to do is to stop and not think for a moment.. and let the emotions and lies rush in..

something about human emotions makes me sick as well.. because emotions can seem so true sometimes.. even though in hindsight, they're not.  i wonder if people do stop and think, and find that they emoted something fake.

can we get off a rollercoaster and deny the thrill?  that's the power of emotions... and we're drawn into it.. manipulated by it... until we lose focus on reality.  and lies and truths don't seem to matter.

the pursuit of happiness.  isn't it what life is all about?  it is! even if we try to deny it because it sounds self-centered.

Confessions - round 2

so i just finished the book.. my feelings have changed a bit.  i'm afraid that it got me believing in conspiracy theories as if they're real.  but what if they are?  it would be very sad if we didn't believe.  at the same time, it makes me more angry to know that this book is just a bunch of lies..  but, lies to further what cause?  to lie about your lies, so that they become true lies?  i really cannot comprehend the irony.

whatever the case may be.. there is one sure conclusion.  the world that we live in is very very evil (what else is new?).  it is either filled with the evil people John Perkins wrote about.. OR, it is filled with professional liars like John Perkins and Dan Brown.  or both.  all working directly for Satan.

John Perkins - the mold of anti-Christ?

author claims it's a non-fiction story of his life.
the author is entirely new age.  can "new age" ideals bring someone to write something like this?  just to promote new agedness?
any1 out there with a theory?
is he the anti-Christ of the 21st century?
what do u say Dan Brown? are you impressed?

i'm so sick of it.. this guy is sick beyond imagination.  this is unforgiveable..
