Question Question

Ello my fine people! So I just have a question and it would be HIGHLY appreciated if I got at least one opinion on the matter, five won't hurt though. So the question that I've been debating with several people and decided to pose to my fine bloggers, and it applies to both men and women is, "Would you date and possibly marry a virgin?"

Drop the comment, you can be anonymous if you choose or you can just email me your response. I would like to know what you people are thinking

Love Yourself

You are not the most important person in the world but you are important to some people, very important, and that is all that matters.

The Truth...

If you're not courageous enough to say it there is absolutely no problem. The problem comes into play the moment you try to crucify the person who is.

Internal Discussion

When I woke up this morning and looked in the mirror, I saw different emotions flicker across my face but the one that stood out the most was unhappiness. I wasn't happy and haven't been for a while. Don't know why. I just know that I find myself that way at the end of the day. Nothing is really happening to make me unhappy. But then that's probably it. Nothing is happening. Time is moving forward, days are passing and nothing but a routine of wake up, shower, go to school, get upset with faculty or administration, do work, come home, study and sleep. That is what my life entails now. That is all. There is no life in that. No soul. Just routine work. I have plans, ambitions, so why am I not doing anything different? Why am I so bland? Why am I not changing anything? And then from within, the answer came. Soft, damn near silent. And If I had kept on yelling in my head I probably wouldn't have heard it. "Because YOU have decided to let it be that way."

Stuck in silence as I sat on the toilet (Most of life's biggest questions are answered in the bathroom), the voice became louder. "YOU don't want anything to change. YOU wake up everyday and choose not to make anything happen. It is YOU. YOU can't be angry with anyone because YOU have allowed your life to be like a ball that doesn't bounce. YOU have chosen not to be happy"

I couldn't argue because I knew it was true. I already knew the answer but I needed it said by someone other than myself, my internal self doesn't count. I know, I have issues.

In the end I came up with the conclusion that I have to choose to be happy. I probably won't choose this everyday and maybe neither will you, but it all boils down to what YOU choose. People will piss you off, the exam will always have that one question (or ten) that you don't  know the answer to and you'll probably guess (in my case, guess wrong), the weather may be shitty tomorrow the next day and for the rest of the week, and so on and so forth. But with all these circumstances, what will you choose to be?

Sha if someone insulted your mother, called your child ugly or something of that sorts, its knee-jerk reaction to fight with venom in your blood. In those type of cases, there's no choice. But you get the point right?

:-)

Love is for everyone. Single, Married, Dating.
Realize who you love and tell them you love them, all of them.
Because the only moments that you are certain of are the ones that have gone and the one that is now.
Happy Valentine's Day to all my loved ones.

Sunday Reading....

Today I actually decided to pick up a NY Times article and actually read it rather than watch the infamous Super Eagles play. Sifting through my newsfeed on Facebook, I stumbled upon this particular one and it made the wheels of thought start turning, pondering, wondering, reflecting. My thoughts may be posted later as at the moment I hope to take a nice siesta (does anyone still take those or call them that? I miss boarding life) before I wipe the dust of my textbook and begin prepping for Friday's exam. Leave your thoughts below. Would be nice to read, compare and contrast. Peaceful debating maybe ^_^?

Self-Rightousness

...I dislike it.
...JESUS CHRIST washed the feet of His disciples.
...I am flawed. Very much so. But if you're not willing to accept your own do not, I repeat, DO NOT try and preach to me.
