Current State

Life can be difficult at times. I’m not sure exactly how it tends to work but I do know that it’s not a friendly game of chess. It’s hard work and it can suck. Life has a sneaky way of messing with a person. I don’t know all of its tricks and things like that, but it happens. It feels like I don’t have control over much anymore. I wish I could find a way to take it all back ya know? I don’t know how to do that. So many things would be nice to have about right now…I don’t know how to make that happen. So, I’ll keep running. What is it I’m running away from though? Will it ever catch up with me or will I be able to outrun it forever? I’m not sure if I know how to continue onward anymore. One would think I could get past or through whatever it is that’s troubling me. Isn’t that a basic instinct we all have? A basic part of life is to keep moving forward? It’s someting like that, I don’t know if I have the wording right though. I feel like a prisoner trapped in my own mind at times. I do...

Family

Ah family, what is there to be said about family. Family means so much to me. They are my blood. They mean the world to me. Family is part of my life, that’s all there is to it. Without family, we would have nothing. Without family, we wouldn’t know where we came from, our origins. Granted even with family around, we don’t always get the full picture of our ancestors and how we came to be. But I don’t think that really matters, as long as we have some part of the picture, we are a-okay.

They say that blood is thicker than water. I mean technically it is, it’s not just a saying. It’s fact. But when that blood comes under fire, you have to go into it headfirst and see what’s going on. That’s what family does for each other. They’re there for each other no matter what.

Not every family gets along. Sometimes there are troubles that can’t be solved and rifts form and appear. It can be an unfortunate thing. But it is what it is, and there’s nothing that can be done about it. Both parties have to work hard at getting back together and making things right again. It takes a lot of time, energy, and effort to make things work out. Not impossible, just hard to do at times.

Keep your family close, you never know when you’ll lose a family member. Death can happen at anytime during a person’s life. Rarely there is any warning ahead of time, and if there is warning it is hell waiting for the inevitable to happen. However, sometimes death can bring a family closer together than thought possible. That’s not always the case of course, but sometimes you might be surprised.

So cherish your family while you can. It’s important to try and be with them as much as possible.

Didn't Sleep

 What's the point of sleep anymore if I can't sleep? I don't think I slept any good last night. I was awake at 3 am wondering to myself, what on earth am I doing awake? Yeah, that happened. It doesn't make any sense. Fortunately, it's the weekend. So, I can catch up on sleep tonight. I don't have to be anywhere tomorrow, so it's a good opportunity to actually sleep for once. Whatever the case, I hope I'll be able to fall asleep and stay asleep. We will see what happens.

What's The Point?

 So, tell me, what is the point of believing in a spiritual supreme being? I often wonder what that is all about. I know religions say that God, as some call him, is our father. We pray by starting with our father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Yet sometimes it feels like he is absent from our lives. Is it due to how we are living our lives? What exactly is the cause of that feeling? Some people believe that God, Jesus, and the Holy Ghost are one person. Others do not. It is interesting to me to see what all churches believe in. I myself do not go to church. I don't believe in organized religion. I have my bible on my phone, so it's me and my bible. That is my link to God. It makes me wonder if that's enough though. I have faith in Christ, I believe in him. Is my faith sufficient to be forgiven of my sins? I do not know. I do know that wherever I end up in the afterlife, I will have done my best to follow Christ. I believe the scriptures which lay out Christ's...

Temptation Bible vs Book of Mormon

In the Bible in 1 Corinthians 10:13 we find: There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able ; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. But what might seem as a contradiction is found in Alma 13:28 But that ye would humble yourselves before the Lord, and call on his holy name, and watch and pray continually, that ye may not be tempted above that which ye can bear , and thus be led by the Holy Spirit, becoming humble, meek, submissive, patient, full of love and all long-suffering; So, which is it? Either God tempts you to a point and stops, or you have to actively pray not to be tempted beyond that no return point. Which is it?
