Time Consumption

*Picture from Discovery Education

So I want to say to my 3-4 loyal fans, this will be the last Saturday that I blog. My weekends are very action packed, and wonderful adventures, and so writing a blog tends to slow progress. So after today, I will no longer be writing blogs on Saturday or Sunday.

If there is something from my weekend that I wish to share, it will either be in a blog for the following week, or I may post a YouTube video in regards to that topic.

This is to not only help myself, but also, for the readers of my blog, it will give you the weekend to catch up on a weeks worth of blogs, and also if you are unavailable for the weekend you don't have to worry about having missed something.

So YAY for the weekends, and goodbye to my Saturday and Sunday blogs.

Thanks for the support,

How We Take Advantage

So today I got cable installed in my house. I never knew home much I took advantage of being able to flick on the tv and it be there. The past 2 weeks have been long, cable-less, and without internet.

I myself have never been one to sit and watch TV. There is more to life than that...I can find 1000 other things to do. Well that was when I had cable. Without it I was so FREAKING BORED!

But it's not just cable, there are numbers of things that we unknowingly take advantage of. Not because we aren't thankful. Its because we aren't understanding.

Prime example, I've recently posted pictures of my apartment complex on facebook. Many of you seem to be in disagreement. So I'm assuming I can only post pictures of myself half-drunk, half-naked, or partying for it to be a proper facebook picture. What about people who post pictures to tell a story. To mark a point in their life, or to share them with others. 

We take advantage of the fact that we have the ability to click on someone's name and look at all their information, yet we don't stop to understand why people post some information and don't post other information. With my apartment pictures. It was to create an album to e-mail to those who are unable to come and visit my apartment. And I'm not talking about friends. I also have elderly family who can easily access their e-mail but cannot drive a car. (And yes, when you publicly share/e-mail an album the recipient does not have to be a member of facebook to see it).

But what else do people take advantage of, I know. School. It's almost become a fad. Like in high school you say, I'm going to college...well why...I want a good job. Great motivation. Then you get to school; skip class, disrespect teachers, use school as the hook-up line, dress to class like you're going to Club Freak-a-hoe. What are you really there for. Why are you taking advantage of the thousands of dollars put forth in order for you to thrive in life?

We all do it. Wake up. go to class...bullshyt on papers,test, and homework. And never really stop to appreciate why we are there to begin with. 

What saddens me is when people take advantage of themselves. How? By not striving to reach their greatest potential. By not looking beyond what they currently understand and attempt to see that something greater is out there. By belittle themselves to fit in a group, or click, that promises nothing in return. Or those who downgrade themselves for attention, respect, authority. 

What are you proving by taking advantage of yourself. That you don't respect yourself? That you know not of what you are capable of? Maybe you are afraid to show who you really are in fear of reject by those you wish to call "friend" (that's a whole different note).

We take advantage of so much, especially us that are young and think that the way things are going are how they should be. 

No, some one has fought for you to be where you are. Someone has cried, someone bled, someone has prayed, someone has DIED.

For you to take advantage of the life you live. Marinate on it.

God Bless

I Even Surprise Myself...

Today...is a day. Could it be a reincarnation of yesterday? What is the difference in today and yesterday..? Is it all not the same "day" just with a light cycle?

Do we distinguish days only by the fact that we sleep in between them? If I were to follow the sun around continuously, would I not always be in the same day? Only those in the darkness for a period of time would call the next showing of the sun a new day. Yet I have seen the sun consistently for 24 hours, and now back at the spot I started...it is still the same sun, the same day.

Why do we distinguish days? A time line...? For what? Who can stay alive the longest, because anything you do in a day is done. There is not completion of that thing. There is no going back to redo it. It is done. Now you may continue it the next day, but that previous day is past, the result received are going to be different than today's.

Even with days, why must darkness be so gloomy? Better question, why can't people shine sun on the darkness in their life? Why can people not see that their faults of today creates their troubles of tomorrow?

Maybe that's what days are for, to present us with consequence for what we've done previously. People ask, "why am I having such a bad day?", your answer...cause you f*cked it up yesterday.
