If you’ve been looking for a cause to join, an effort to support, or even a life philosophy to embrace, I may have found one for you. It’s quite ingenious. It’s called the Voluntary Human Extinction Movement. You may think I’m joking about such a cause actually existing, and I’m sure my tongue-in-cheek recruiting attempt […]
A word of warning: This blog entry is not really “PC”. If the word “retarded” offends you, go ahead and skip this read.
A future President is praised for his heroism. His greatness. A man, greatly unknown to the world until a few short weeks ago, wins 8 golds at the Summer Olympics. Greatness. […]
The world speeds by in a blur as I press my cheek up against the window. Nothing but the rhythmic sound of the wheels against the track. *click-clack* *click-clack* *click-clack*. Not a single person remains in the cabin with me. My present circumstance somehow mimics what’s going on inside my head… […]
Looks like another semi-sleepless night for me. I have 8 hours of work tomorrow. This isn’t going to be fun. After lying in bed for the past 4 hours, trying to fall asleep, I’ve given up (temporarily) and aroused from my bed to try to vent and output some of my thoughts […]

What beauty may come and go in and through my lifetime? […]
This is one of the most awkward interviews I’ve ever watched.I found this video this morning. Oh my… I don’t know where to start. I hope this is me in 10 years. Still a screw up. Still fumbling through my relationship with God. Still […]
“I would have done things differently if I knew we would have so short a time together.”
Words of regret. Sincere pain spoken in a single sentence. An expression communicating the anxious understanding of loss. These words were spoken to me recently. I have no doubt they were as hard to say as they were to […]
Again, I must preface this blog with a little disclaimer… The following is technically just “rambling” thoughts and ideas about a topic I feel I know little about and understand even less about. If you’d just like to watch the 4 minute video and skip the words, it’s fine […]
I know many people – fellow Christians – who disagree with a lot of what John Piper preaches. Nonetheless, I know that Steven Curtis Chapman embraces his message, as do I. I found this video several months ago, and I thought of it again tonight as I meditated on the tragic loss in the Chapman […]
It’s interesting to come in contact with people who profess Christ, yet don’t profess to struggle (or have any problem) with personal pride. Chances are, if you consider yourself “humble”, or if you really aren’t fully engaged in an honest, front-line, bullet-exchanging battle with pride, I’m talking about you. I know that, in so many […]
