Well today was slow in a pleasant sort of way. I was way too exhausted and stressed about a few big school things to muster up the courage to make myself go to school. So, I had a stomach ache and sore throat instead :) Ha. Unfortunately, I haven’t made any sort of effort to get those things done, and my “sick day” is almost over. Figures.
My twin brother and my best friend, Daniel, is on my mind tonight as well. He’s had a tough year spiritually...He hasn’t been hanging out with people who share his standards which has caused his to slowly lower considerably. Which in turn has left him very lost and confused. He feels that God is unreachable and that he is undeserving of him. The truth is though, is that he is an extraordinary person. I wish I knew what to say to him to point him in the right direction; show him that God is right there waiting for him. Please say one for him, and me.
On a lighter note, I was just watching the most fascinating show on the history channel called...

I love the history channel!! Also spirtuality and religion conflict fundementally, your going to loss him in this world, at this modren time if you try that overly romantic, fantasized, weak version of what god is becaue it gives people the option to turn away. The truth of god FORCES us to realize we are incredible, because if we don't no one else will, even if they do, doesn't matter, we can't see it. The fact is were met to be on a path to always understand this world, your brothers problem, he thinks everyone, including your god understands it, this makes him feel weak because he doesn't, you most know this insecurity? Because the fact is no one does, know this and fighting to do your part (hey watching history channel IS one way!!! GO YOU!!) to understand HOW MUCH we do. But if your caught under the pressures of an organized religion, well this is ALL part of the course. A relationship like that with god, makes you expendable, when the TRUTH of the relationship of god, makes you nesscary, much more I can say, but its on you what path to go down. IF it is organized religion, its a choice of faith, not a direction, a very lost cause..... no offense, the worlds more hard-2-the-core then a bible could ever do it justice, the worst thing we ever thought is that it would ever do god any....
