Black or White

exams r come n gone but the silly project just wont go away...but thank God my cringe is way behind me!!!

to more serious issues, i feel lazy, like the very thing that used to drivve me is missing and i cant understand it...i cant belive i didnt go for shiloh, even if i was ill, (it wont be the first time that i was ill during shiloh)...n this time i know am not being too hard on myself or beating myself up for nothing. there was just no excuse.

the mornin devotion at home doesnt hold anymore and i used to be in charge of that. what happened??? true, i was workin and i wasnt at home, my mum was always travellin n my dad just had a different schedule but i could still have gotten it to happen (i think)

i used to look forward to just prayer meetings, or just any spiritual gathering but now i also look forward to outings that have just fun n relaxation value (catchin a movie, somewhere i have to dress up to etc?).

i used to devote all my extra time to reading strictly spiritual books (no novels AT ALL) but now, i find those books on business, investments, financial issues and topics like that very interesting

i used to wake up at like 5am to watch Creflo Dollar, Joyce Meyer etc on TBN and the pray for like an hour but now, i find that am awake till about 4am watchin the apprentice...and then i sleep! not even an hour of prayer like i used to.

i used to fast a lot...there was a time i set myself on a forty-days fast and i didnt die but now fatsing for three days seems like a lot of hardwork and even the weekly fast of one day a week seems tedious

guys!!!...i used to see relationships from an entirely, entirely different angle and now i just don't see them from that angle anymore ( u must understand that its hard for me to put that angle in words)...k i'll try, it used to be all rosy colored n perfect and all about Jesus but now i think there is no hard and fast rule to it, que sera sera

i used to think that u had to be the perfect wife (almost stepford) and have to do everything in a certain way to have the perfect family or at least to have a happy home n a faithful husband but now i just think that of a truth, no person is perfect and a man who's gonna be faithful will be faithful and if one is gonna be happy, u just have to pick someone that is indeed a soulmate!

now, the music, geez!, i used to be straight up gsopel, nothin secular but now i find that i welcome the noise of the secular, as a matter of fact, sometimes i really do like it

...i'll finish up this reality check later

brown sugar, u really gotta help me!!!

peace!

Hey Mineeki!

Life always sees that we go through different phases, times and seasons. One moment you are so sure of yourself, the next you wonder how u ever became friends with this stranger called yourself!
There'll always come a time when our values, knowledge and ideals are tested and the result: character is truly formed.

Keep an open mind, and a pure conscience. Be flexible, choose wisely but hold on to what/Who you believe in. (I say these words to myself as well.)

One Luv!
