A New Thought...

I just discovered why I hate holidays so much, besides the fact we take them out of context and commercialize them. It's because we set ourselves up for this big change or whatever, and we fall right back to where we started.

Think birthdays, like a Sweet-Sixteen or something like that, you set the girl up as being so grown up and tell her how her life has just moved up a notch and all this crap. But after the sleepover and the sugar-highs and chick-flicks, life goes right back to the way it was before the party. All that expectation, all that hype, excitement, etc, it's just an emotional spike that falls right back to where you are, or sometimes lower. So why bother?

Prayer Request (6/3/09)

Ok, so there is this girl I know, I used to know her really well but we kinda fell apart recently, but she doesn't seem to be doing very well. She has kinda gone a bit Gothic in her appearance, her songs (which weren't always 100% positive to start with) have taken a definite depressing turn, and (if I'm reading what I've been seeing right) it seems she has been losing friends.

I don't know what I can do, or if there is even enough of a relationship there to do any thing with, but God will find a way for her, and she needs prayer. So... please?


Oh, and as a side note: I graduated Monday, June 1st.
