#almostdecember

i love the idea of hash-tags like they use on twitter. i would use it for everything, all the time but then i just look ridiculous. i also wish we could 'cc:' people on texts. you know like...this is the text i sent and here is the conversation but you don't really need to weigh in, its only a FYI. in addition, thanksgiving went by way too fast. :(

apparently UW has come out with these contacts that are like a smart phones in your eyes....uhm excuse me but WTF. no one needs that, maybe if you are James Bond...but that is the only exception i will make. don't get me wrong, i LOVE all these cool gadgets and such but i cannot help but think there are much more valuable things we could create, like i don't know a hybrid tree that grows exponentially quicker than other trees so we can use that for paper. just an idea. im sure people have better ones baha.

today...i am frustrated. i feel like the list of things i want to change in the world keeps growing and yet my ability to actually change anything gets harder.

two things that make me the most upset right now...divorce and the christian community. one of these i hate and the other i just get disappointed in.

i hate divorce...its a horrible, wretched thing that should have never been invented. marriage is not meant to be just another choice in life, its supposed to be a life choice. if you want to get married, well for fucks sake stay married. take however long you want to figure that out...but make that decision once. i am thinking a lot about this for two reasons. one because goodness how could i ever make such a huge decision? i mean i guess you are supposed to just 'know' but even then. also because i know a lot of people are getting married and i am so happy for them, but how is it that statistically half of them will get divorced? it breaks my heart. not to mention...statistically two out of the four lewey kids will get divorced...which means i would totally get divorced twenty times over than watch one of my siblings go through it.

enough about that. this is a long post so i will make this next statement brief. i am disappointed in the christian community because people are so quick to count-out, discredit, disrespect and write off people just because they have not said 'i believe in Jesus.' im sorry but if you truly believe in Christ then you truly believe He created all of humanity in the image of Him, which means that you can still hear and see Christ in those people. from what i have experienced...its people like this that have some of the most raw and pure Christ-like features. God loves you regardless of the shit you do...so don't count anyone out. ever.

in closing...i love soup. especially the lentil soup i have for lunch today.
