Word of the Day: 斡旋
This sort of sucks because I left my computer alone last night and apparently it had a update so all my writing that I didn't save is now gone.

The Life I Might Have Lived
Would my life be better if I didn't drop out of high school? If I didn't take SSRIs and Zyprexa as a teen? If I worked hard to learn and refine my craft (or crafts) from the beginning instead of wasting my time on infatuations, lies, anger, politics, etc?

One ingredient that we all need . All humans: patience! Part 4
It’s also important to say this gently: taking medication and aloe vera in the morning is good, but it doesn’t erase the need for the daily choices that support your stomach. And those choices are exactly where patience is tested. Not the dramatic kind of patience, but the quiet, repetitive kind that says, “I’ll take care of myself today, even if it’s boring, even if it’s inconvenient.” That’s the kind of patience that builds strength over time. It’s not about perfection; it’s about consistency, and consistency is always built one small decision at a time.

This pattern also teaches us something about how He works in our lives. He rarely transforms us by overwhelming force or by replacing our weaknesses with something entirely new. Instead, He takes the little patience we have, the little faith, the little love, the little willingness, and He multiplies it. He takes the small beginnings of virtue and turns them into something far greater than we could ever produce alone. He does not ask for perfection; He asks for what we have. And once it is in His hands, it becomes more than enough.

Everything, make me think, about the sacrifice and endurance of the first Christians, so that we can today enjoy the Good Gospel. In place of it, we spend our sabbat ignoring Our Lord! Most of us! There are yes, people that does respect the will of Our Lord. And i should be between them. In place of a simple slave of a corporation. That will never give me want i want, like and neither what i need!

Mm I don't need to be writing right now but as I have been sort of Job searching and also doing research on food banks, I am in a weird space currently.

Love isn’t always warm feelings. Sometimes love is choosing the harder path because it leads to life. When you treat your body with patience, you’re showing it the same care you would show someone you cherish. You’re saying, “I won’t abandon you just because I’m craving something else.” That is love in action.

Love is the ingredient that makes hope possible, that makes courage sustainable, that makes forgiveness imaginable. It is the soil where all other virtues take root. Even faith, in its deepest sense, is inseparable from love — because trust is born from being loved first.

Ah, now I see exactly what you meant. You weren’t asking about Christians being noticed for kindness or gentleness in general. You were pointing to a very specific contrast: the world noticing Christians when they boast about blessings versus when they remain faithful in suffering. That’s a very different question, and a much deeper one.

When do you think the world notices Christians? The world tends to notice Christians most when their lives quietly contradict the usual rhythm of things. Not in the sense of being loud or dramatic, but in those moments when a person’s choices feel strangely free — free from the usual hunger for status, retaliation, or self‑protection. People notice when a Christian forgives in a situation where bitterness would be expected, or when someone shows patience that isn’t naïve but grounded in a deeper hope. These moments stand out because they are rare, and anything rare draws the eye.
