Unfulfilled Dreams

I was going to be selfish today and write about my own unfulfilled dreams. But I though about it and hell I ain't dead and buried yet, so it ain't over for me.

So I'll write about a dude that wanted to become a famous painter, but never really became one. I'm pretty sure he wanted to have his paintings huge in an art gallery or an exhibit. Or maybe he didn't... and just painted for himself. Heck if I know.

What I do know is dude never became famous as a painter though.

Isn't it sad?

If only we all could achieve the dreams and ambitions of our youth.

So if you haven't yet, take a look @ the lower left-hand corner. Then remember to encourage the dreams of others, instead of focusing on progress, production and work.

Sesame

In our daily likes we can come into encounter with a lot of seeds: apple seeds, watermelon seeds, sesame seeds, poppy seeds, sunflower seeds, tomato seeds etc. I know what poppies are, I know what sunflowers are, I know what tomatoes are. But what the heck are sesames? I decided today that I would pay the sesames the respect of knowing what they are before I ingest their un-sprouted children, maybe you should do the same.

Bible Verse

Exodus 19:3b-6

"This is what you are to say to the house of Jacob and what you are to tell the people of Israel: 4 'You yourselves have seen what I did to Egypt, and how I carried you on eagles' wings and brought you to myself. 5 Now if you obey me fully and keep my covenant, then out of all nations you will be my treasured possession. Although the whole earth is mine, 6 you [a] will be for me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.' These are the words you are to speak to the Israelites."

This passage speaks to me. God himself declared that out of all the people in the world he specifically picked Israel to be his designated nation. He provided for them and called them his treasured possession. He granted everything to them, everywhere, touched or untouched by human contact, was offered to them.

God personally guided this nation out of Egypt, granted his deliverance on them, fastened his all seeing eyes upon them. He carried them on His back and dealt with all the opposition the little nomadic tribe encountered. God was the pillar for those who traveled and wandered with the wind.

Follow your nose!

I don't know if it's just me, but it seems that girls smell a whole lot nicer when I'm hungry.

hahaha I know it sounds strange but I got no beef with it (pun intended).

Which leads me to wonder if it's the same way for girls, or anyone else for that matter?
