Random thought about the void:

I wonder if there’s, like, a light switch in the void, and that’s why the background is white all the time. I can only imagine someone switching some switch off and then “bam” darkness.

((Snowball must have found the light switch by accident...

A Gust of Wind Vol.3, 8.28.23 “Running on Empty"

Fish for something in the deeps That lurks, that lumbers, creeps Find that drive, or itch that moves you on Hold it tight before it’s gone Not a jock, all-star, yoked Hauling a team, lean or mean men, fiery stoked Passionate isolation Chosen social shun Somewhere inside is a light that will never go out Cry in the dark shout without doubt Solve every problem, resolve, once more–again Inhale slow, hold, exhale after a count to ten How far, high, much – is done with so little Such a simple tool, a body, so brittle I was too young for such a lesson From this challenge, I did not lesson Don’t harden at this empty gut Many a day’s you’ll find a rut Crawl in, stuck in, fallen too Such is struggles for dreams, pursue A car may run on fumes a while What distance, great, shall be your trial?

“To laugh is to risk appearing a fool, To weep is to risk appearing sentimental. To reach out to another is to risk involvement, To expose feelings is to risk exposing your true self. To place your ideas and dreams before a crowd is to risk their loss. To love is to risk not being loved in return, To live is to risk dying, To hope is to risk despair, To try is to risk failure. But risks must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing. The person who risks nothing, does nothing, has nothing, is nothing. He may avoid suffering and sorrow, But he cannot learn, feel, change, grow or live. Chained by his servitude he is a slave who has forfeited all freedom. Only a person who risks is free.” —William Arthur Ward

Rant about gang of youths (specifically the song Perservere) and religion. I invite anyone who has thoughts on this to reply and I promise this is a safe space for people of faith as well as agnostics and atheists

Everything gang of youths has ever done but specifically the entirety of Go Farther In Lightness but specifically The lyrics and performance in Persevere are just so. AAAAAAA. This is the most devastating song I’ve ever heard maybe and that says a lot. Specifically the lines “I couldn’t count the times I’ve ragged on heaven, as an opiate invented by the weak. It’s an argument I hate ‘cause I’m content to love the fates” LIKE FUUUUUUCK. This is a song about a child dying and it making him reevaluate pretty much his entire belief system and how just bea cause you’ve been hurt by a religion and no longer believe in it, doesn’t mean you’re not allowed to talk shit about it but it also doesn’t mean you can use your bad experience with it to hurt others who honestly need it to make any sense of this cruel and chaotic world we live in. People who truly believe and who’s lives it truly improves are not bad or stupid for believing. And wow it hurts so bad as someone who did not have a great time being Catholic and is extremely aware of all the bad it has done to people. It speaks to me so hard because I’m constantly torn between how can you still believe in a good and righteous God who lets the worst and most hateful people become the most powerful and fuck over the world constantly, a god who lets the best and even most devout people get targeted for things they cannot control? And letting people believe what they want and what comforts them as long as it does not hurt anyone else. Obviously I would never say to a person of faith that they should not believe and that their faith is stupid because that would be mean and I do not believe in doing things like that. But I spend a lot of time thinking about it and this song just. If someone’s belief that good people go to heaven comforts them when they experience an unspeakable kind of loss that I will probably never experience, then let it comfort them. Maybe they’re eighth, maybe suffering in this world is worth it if it leads to eternal peace. Maybe I don’t need to be right.

“Actually I am a Christian, and indeed a Roman Catholic, so that I do not expect ‘history’ to be anything but a ‘long defeat’— though it contains (and in legend may contain more clearly and movingly) some samples or glimpses of final victory” -- J. R. R. Tolkien (Letters 255).

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

VI.i.14. Some of the holy fathers of Scete while making predictions about future generations began by asking, "What exactly have we done?" Someone called Cyrion, a man of great repute, replied, "We have not kept the commandments of God." The others asked, "What about those who shall come after us? How shall they do?" And he replied, "They shall only achieve half of what we have done." They asked, "What about those who will come after them? How shall they do?" He replied, "That last generation shall do nothing of what we have done. But I foresee great temptations for them, and those who are able to persevere in that time will be much greater than either us or our fathers." -- Vitae Patrum, Page 97

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

"The present age of absurdity is the just reward of Christians who have failed to be Christians."

"For the hope of Christians is not in this world or in any of its kingdoms-that hope, indeed, is the ultimate absurdity; the hope of Christians is in the Kingdom of God which is not of this world." -- From the Article

The Best Athletes are Like an Eagle: -They Train at High Altitude and Excel in What they Do!

Have you asked yourself how champions are made? See below the comparison between an eagle and an athelete.

Photo by Frank Cone on Pexels.com ‘Once upon a time in the vast wilderness, a majestic eagle named Skydancer soared high above, its wings catching the golden rays of the sun. With eyes sharp as diamonds, it surveyed the world below, embracing the freedom of the open skies. Every beat of its wings echoed a symphony of liberation, a tale written in the wind for those who dared to dream.’ Molting…

May Be Well, 5.16.23 "It Will Suddenly Click"

One day you will wake up and Everything, yes, everything will make sense The friction locking that Jenga piece will give And you will climb higher than before Each attempt and fall and bruise and scrape And all of it Yes, all of it, will be worth it for that day One day you will wake up and The neurons inside your disordered brain Will fire with precision, Holding hands For you will never be alone with your thoughts And all of it, Yes, all of it will be with your success One day you will wake up and Success will be upon your doorstep Bloodied, you will part the parcel With broken fingers, tired Postage from period self And all of it Yes, all of it will be yours to have and share One day you will wake up and Face the world head held high Filling a giant’s steps stamped in the earth Head above the clouds with out of the box ideas Doubtless of each question And all of it Yes, all of it Will be worth it then

Perseverance

It's a night of blue

As the wind tears through

The walls we're in creak

As the gales seek

The seedlings have just bloomed

But the wind's too strong, they're doomed

It will tear their stems so thin

In the end the wind will win

For the desert of sagebrush is cruel

And for growing here I am a fool

But like a seedling I will persist

Though I may die as I resist

I'll take it one night at a time

Listening to that old windchime

When Everyone Else Seems So Put Together, I'm Still A Disaster

Sometimes I just feel like I'm not getting anywhere

Photo by RODNAE Productions As we enter another year that will surely pass us far too quickly, I think about all the people who’s biggest concern is how happy they are with their body. I’m at an age where I thought I’d be at least a little successful in life. Truthfully, I didn’t think I’d actually be alive this long, but I thought that if I did live this long I’d have something figured out by…
