Eat Sleep Drink Yearn

Have you ever found something that you held so very dear to your heart and tried to share it with people?
At first people are sceptical of the treasures that you have unearthed but once your interest is diverted someone rushes in and tries to make it their own...i just don't comprehend people sometimes.
I'm sure friends never mean to hurt each other...but maybe not being completely honest with others is the key to being hurt. I haven't been honest. And now I kinda hurt..likes the taste of bile at the back of my throat. You say one thing but you mean another. Because really things are a big deal. People are a big deal.
Why do i constantly reach for the unreachable? Because without a challenge life would be as dull as dishwater. But why is romance such a challenge? Why do I come down on myself so hard? Old habits die hard. Old esteem dies hard. Old feelings die hard.
Yet the world keeps on turning.

Like it's that easy

I just noticed that on this blog machine theres a button that says 'create'. As if my a small movement of ones finger you can create . What can you create? What could you create if life included a create button.
God bless perspective.

Imagine that you were a song but no-one would sing you. Imagine that you were a song stuck deep inside the soul of a man waiting to burst out and breathe life into people through whatever form your creator gave you.
God bless perspective.

Imagine that in life you get all that you want when you want it and how you want it. Would you be satisfied? Would you learn anything? Would you ultimately become a better person for the journey?
God bless perspective.

Every Man's Battle

Jonah suffered for it. Pride. As a reluctant preacher he didn't want to communicate the existence of God to them because of the way they were living.
God gave Jonah a purpose to preach to the Assyrian city of Ninevah.
Basically. I can't be bothered with destructive pride.
I want a home.

Get out of jail free

That card doesn't exist. It is just another farse in this illusion of life. You can run from a conviction but you'll never be free of it. ou can bury a skeleton in the back garden but weathering of time will expose for all to see.
I'm fed up with conviction. There are things that need to be dealt with. And if these things go undealt with then life gets awkward.
I hate confrontation. I hate my human pride. Swallowing your human pride and humbling yourself to confront something that needs dealing with is damned hard. It's the worst thing ever.
But it has to be done though doesn't it! To become more manly then i spose we gotta face these things. Jesus never ran from confrontation. Jesus never rejected.
Sort it ou Dan.

Mini I AM

First of all...as naff as it sounds - I believe I can fly...what a tune! But only when it's done live by Yolanda Adams. I have this live recording that i bought off itunes...AWESOME stuff.

I watched Napoleon Dynamite last night with some cronies at my gaff. I expect I've already put this down somewhere but when i watched it I was struck by a great sense of empathy for the Uncle Rico character who is desperate to go back in time and change some things about his life and alter the way things turned out by living out his dreams. I don't want to be Uncle Rico. & I wont be.

When someone falls in love with you on the premise of what you look like in a photo is that real love?

Since an inspired discussion with some people from my church I've been giving the whole 'what do i want in a wife' thing a tbit of thought. And you know what...i have absolutely no idea what i want in a wife! When the right one comes along you always know. But then again...maybe I am going to go through life without a mate until i actually know what i want? No i don;t believe that. I've heard far too many stories of people who have said 'i don't want any involvement with men/women (applicable to respective genders)' and actually ended up rather soon after that statement meeting their spouse and shacking up! But i don't wanna make a decision kinda half looking over my shoulder expecting something.
Thats not how God works.
God is never early, he is never late...he is always bang on time. That can be frustrating sometimes. But in retrospective it's so much better for us as people. As individuals doing life.

Clearing the air with a friend is always a good thing. Makes life easier.

Listen to the Cinematic Orchestra - Man With a Movie Camera...amazing album.

Dymo

Right. I work in a christian bookshop. I wont say which one but if you know me and where i live then im sure youre able to put 2 and 2 together.
What really hacks me off about christian music is that no-one wants to do anything different. Everyone is just reinventing the same old stuff. But I say let us not be different for the sake of being different but pioneer a whole new movement! Pioneer a whole new musical sound of music be it for worship or whatever. But PLEASE someone help to take music somewhere new because I fear for the generations of christians to come with the current state of christian music.

(At work blatantly being lazy)

Slowly Surely

I wanna quit my job and play bass.

Broken post

So i stubbed my toe at work today and think i broke it. so i took a trip to the hospital with my housemates...was kinda like a gang outing. So i gotta rest it for the next week and not do too much exercise..shouldn't be too hard.
I'm listening to the cinematic orchestra at the mo which is quite cool actually. didn't think i'd enjoy it that much but its good fun....
need to go to bed...tired and fat.
god bless xx
