Love Show

I left my church, Ridge Baptist, last June but returned this past August to start a college-aged ministry called Morph. Things are going very well and some developments have occured in which I have, in a way, taken over the ministry. This means planning events and teaching the bible study. Might be a shocker to those who know me but I felt led to teach.

We are currently doing the study, Multiply, by Francis Chan and this week's lesson was about loving those around us. However there are some people, that no matter what they do they say "love you." This is something that has been bugging me as it seems that after they say it SO many times it loses its meaning and power. I am talking about friends to friends and not family members to each other. I am talking about when someone posts a status update about a bad day and their friend responds with "love you." To me it doesn't seem like an appropriate response and this happens with every status.

Is this because I am a guy and I don't express my emotions like my other homo-sapien counterparts? It is because I am jealous that it doesn't happen to me? I don't know.

Just some thoughts on my mind tonight.

2012 --> 2013

It has been a very long time since I have blogged. Was thinking about the reason why and the main reason is because the holiday season had me very busy between two jobs. The other main reason is because I have had nothing positive to say lately.

2012 is over and it was one of my worse years. It started off good with graduation and coming home. From here it went down hill. It took me five months to find a job. Having to deal with roadblock after roadblock in regards to finding a meteorology job and getting into grad school. These roadblocks continued throughout the entire year up until the few days before Christmas in which I was pretty much guaranteed a job and some uncontrollable circumstances took it away. This was the icing on the cake of disappointments. What a great year....not.

2013 is now here and I thought it would be better. Hasn't been that much better. I have already ran into two more roadblocks in regards to reapplying to grad school. Another setback is that I am sitting here in my room writing this blog.....still living at home. The job front is still the same. I was up for two promotions at my two jobs and I was declined by both companies. So much for hoping that 2013 would be better.

So yeah that is why I have not blogged. Welcome to my life. Who knows, maybe it will get better.
