Now social conditioning to me merely means how the mind sees reality. How you grow up and the environment you live in determines the values put inside of your mind. It does this until you decide to be in charge. Social conditioning structures things like how we view marriage, sex, relationships, and boundaries of what is acceptable and not acceptable.

The difference between a girl that is your friend and a “girlfriend” is a social label. It’s a conditioning of the mind to recognize the difference between a casual and a not so casual “friend.” What I’m getting at is these things get downloaded into our mental programs of reality.

One of my girlfriends and I got along way better after the energy of a “label” was taken away in our interactions. The label puts the mind into separation, which is a separation from love. Think about this, if you have a conversation with a married person you may automatically close of doors to certain forms of love because you feel that persons love is reserved for one person.

I’m not talking about sex here, or intimate things of that nature. I’m talking about closing the doors to potential mind healing because you hear the label married, and assume that you have to close yourself of to certain types of love.

This is not the case, people in perfect love are responsible for their actions and would be open to all forms of love instead of closing them self off to the possibility. Again I’m not talking about sex, I’m talking about communication.

It’s just been socially conditioned into the minds and it takes an element of freedom away. When freedom is no longer free, things become uncomfortable. You can still talk to a married person and share energy, but that doesn’t mean you have to sleep with them. Sex is not love anyway. Sex is to reproduce, and that’s it. It is viewed as fun because it is the representation of union. Love separated and then combined. It’s an attempt to reconnect with perfect love through the body.

Ever notice though that sex is more mental? Love is not sex, but sex can be love. It’s the separation of mind that creates the labels and creates illusion through its “perceived” separation from love.

Do you know why sex is one of the most dominant urges of the human experience? The reason is it’s a material attempt to reconnect with G-D and perfect love. Separation and union, separation and union, just like the mind has done with LOVE.

WHY DO PEOPLE GET HURT OVER BREAKUPS?

People get hurt over breakups because they don’t understand love. They are trying to make something perfect that cannot be if it’s not perfect love. In order to have perfect love your mind cannot have separation from love.

The mind is creating a social conditioning image of love through the eyes of the EGO. So you build up all these expectations of how “”PERFECT” something should be, and then when it’s not “PERFECT” your expectations are shattered. When expectations don’t live to what you see, your EGO get’s pissed. The only way to support a separation from perfect love is to make you see it through foggy classes.

So you chase something you can’t really see, and you keep chasing because you really think your seeing it. Like a cat chases the light of a flashlight across the floor. The cat can never actually catch the light, because what it is actually seeing is not what it thinks it’s seeing.

When you label yourself as only giving your love to one person, you severely restrict yourself. Once again I’m not talking about sex. The spirit which is PERFECT LOVE doesn’t need sex, and probably experiences orgasmic energy all the time because it’s not separated from reality.

Now if you flip the script and dedicate yourself to be intimately in love with yourself, out of perfect love, then situations of perfect love will be yours to experience. EXACTLY how you believe them to be possible.

Now back to social conditioning

If you look to the outside world to figure out what love is, all you will see is fear. Things in the world pass away, therefore fear will be in the outside world. When you get married you say “Till death do us part.” Strong statement, but death can be of the mind as well. But death can only be of the mind that isn’t real.

Anything real will last, anything not real will pass away. Real love has no boundaries. You see this sometimes in mother child interactions. There are mothers that have unconditional love for their children no matter what they do in life. They see them through perfect love vision.
Nothing can destroy perfect love, but illusions can make it seem that way.

The thing that ego fears worth is death. All EGO is, is the separation from perfect love. So when you fear love, you are fearing the death of love, not love itself. Just remember that love cannot die.

Hi everyone, what’s up?

Funny how I ask that question but I don’t really know your answer until you comment. So comment after you read this blog post and tell me what’s up. Here’s an even better idea, comment what you think about this topic.

I was on facebook and I saw this as a “status update” on my friends page. I thought I would talk about it especially since what I have to say wouldn’t fit on facebook.

So let’s get into this…

Why Are You Afraid to love?

I’ve heard some people say because they are not in control, and as a result they feel the other person is. Let’s look at this from TRUTH. If it is not perfect, unconditional love, it’s illusion. The reason a person would feel like they have no control has nothing to do with love. It has everything to do with fear of love. People are associating love with hurt and pain because they “think” that love can be taken from them.

Love cannot be taken from you. Love is something that is eternal within you, it doesn’t leave. The difference between love and “emotions” is that emotions are created by the mind that separates itself from the feeling of perfect love.

You are the only person that can control your reactions, so thinking somebody else is in control is in your own mind. If you believe things to be this way, that is the way it will be for you.

But check this out…If you love yourself, like perfect love DOES, you cannot be hurt by love. Hurt is the opposite of love and the opposite of love is not real. The opposite of love is an illusion of your mind. That’s why it doesn’t feel right.

Wherever there is fear, there is a calling out for LOVE.

Some say they are afraid of love because you can’t guarantee what will happen in the end. This is also an illusion. You can’t guarantee that you will wake up tomorrow but you still go to sleep. The only thing you can guarantee is that you control your reactions.

Love is not a thought, love is REALITY. This is why everybody seeks it, because they feel they are separate from it. Fears are thoughts. They come from a mind that “thinks” it is separated from love. If you didn’t think you were separated from love you would not have these fears. So the question to ask is, why do you feel like you are separate from love?

If you are afraid of love, you are most likely looking for love outside of yourself. From another person, or valentines day card, or roses, or chocolates, something external that has no real value. The real value of love is internal. That’s why people who love themselves do not fear love. Because they are love.

Think about it…The world is always changing, why would you look for love outside of yourself? It would always change. Your inner beliefs are what make the reality you “think” you see outside of your self.

You are afraid of love because you are afraid to take responsibility in the fact that it’s your fault that you are not experiencing it the way you know you should. This is what causes the conflict. The spirit is perfect love, the mind thinks it’s separated. The two cannot exist together because one of them is not real.

I’m not pointing fingers, I know this to be reality within myself, and this is how I heal my mind.

If I feel like love is outside of me, and I’m not responsible for whether or not I experience it correctly, then I will blame things, people,events, and I will create fear. None of these things are real, they all pass away.

It’s similar to associating success with a car. If you feel like you are successful because of a car, what are you after you don’t have the car, or grow tired of the car. Are you back down at the bottom of the barrel? Do you have to go out and get another car to be successful again.

The more you do something like that, the more you create illusions of reality for yourself. Love is the only reality there is, everything else is illusion. When I say Love, I mean perfect unconditional love. Not the love that is subject to the “perceptions” of the split mind, and the “gratifications” of the ego. I’m talking about the perfect love that everybody is pursuing without even realizing it.

The only way to heal fear of love is to forgive it’s existence. If you can forgive the fact that you see the fear in others, it begins to heal your mind. Once you realize that if you forgive the fear of love in others, you will begin to forgive the fear of love within yourself. This will heal your mind from the false reality that you are not LOVE.

According to ABC News, tapping your foot while on a public toilet is a signal for “gay crusing”. I, a gay male, have never heard of this term. But apparently, gay cruising refers to signaling in a public restroom to another male that you are “down for sex”.

What I do not understand is why gay cruising is attributed to the general gay population. I know this is done within male restrooms, between males. But, this is not the majority of the gay population. Such exploitation makes me upset, because I do not want this image to be associated with my own culture and values.

Anyway, the article on ABC talks about what gay cruising is, and an instance Idaho Senator Larry Craigs getting arrested for engaging in cruising in Minneapolis. It is an interesting concept, beyond the stereotypes that follow.

So, yesterday I was watching the AMAs and they sucked as per usual – I don’t know why I watch them – they’re popular music and I tend not to like popular music – I should have stayed away.  Green Day was about the only highlight for me – I was – - – WAS – - looking forward to Adam Lambert, but it seemed too cookie cutter, safe and over-produced just like everything on the show (WHY didn’t he sing the song from the movie 2012: A Time for Miracles????). Eh – oh well.  I kind of wish that they would just hand out the awards and not have anyone sing (yes, I’m talking about Whitney too – even tho she won that ’special’ award).

Next time – I should go with my gut and tune it out like I do the Grammys!  OK OK I probably won’t but I’ll think it!

The thing is – I’m an award show junkie and I do like seeing what people are wearing (kudos to Paula Abdual and Kelly Clarkson).

Just a PS – why is Perez whats-his-face famous again?  Just wondering….

Hope everyone had a GREAT weekend – and PPS – my mom is doing good!!

A new study reported by Oxford Journals (www.oxfordjournals.org) and available in a downloadable pdf here, a link has been found between bisphenol-A (BPA) and adverse effects on male sexual dysfunction.

BPA is present in many plastics, epoxy resins and polycarbonates from plastic drinking bottles and baby bottles to some dental sealants. Routine urine tests have found that most people are exposed to some levels of BPA. As quoted from the article “In a national sample of the US population, more than 90% of spot urine samples had detectable BPA with a median urine level of 2.7 mg/l (Calafat et al.,2005; Calafat et al., 2008; National Toxicology Program, 2008). Since BPA has a fast metabolism rate (half-life time ,6 h) (National Toxicology Program, 2008), this finding suggests a continuous exposure to BPA in the US population.”

At increased risk are workers in plants where exposure to BPA might be present.

The adverse sexual dysfunctions identified in men included problems getting or maintaining an erection, orgasmic difficulties, decrease or loss of sexual desire and overall dissatisfaction with sex life.

The article though fairly extensive emphasizes the need for further study.

Probably the most famous question among the child and the adolescence because they’d frequently asked the question “Where do babies come from?” when they spot a newborn baby somewhere else and parents’d not tell them the exact procedure in the process of a baby by means of elaborating male and female sleeps together then a baby would simultaneously spawn in front of them. And that’s child’s play. This idea is taken by the game of The Sims.

Lets get in-dept onto the subject of biology shall we? We all know that when a couple is copulating (sexual intercourse) and sperm would usually ejaculate or “Cum” into the vagina of a female. During copulation in humans, about 500 millions sperms are ejaculated into the vagina yet only 1 sperm can be successfully penetrated the ovum’s membrane then the ovum’d create a jelly-like membrane to prevent other’s sperm from penetrating and then the whole whole fertilization start its engine from the beginning of ovulation till the implantation stage. The oviduct produces ovum once in every 28 days which it occur in the ovulation stage whereby it had to go through a process called Oogenesis ( oogonia formation ) elsewhere the sperms go through the same process called spermatogenesis ( spermatozoa formation ).

As I were saying, the spermatozoa travels along the cervix and towards the fallopian tube ( this is where sperms had their first encounter with the ovum itself ) then the fertilization begins. Approximately 36 hours after fertilization, the resultant zygote begins to divide repeatedly by mitosis ( cell division ) as it travels along the fallopian tube towards the uterus. The first division forms a two-celled embryo. Further divisions results in the formation of a solid mass of cells known as a morula. By the fifth day, the morula is a ball of bout 100 cells known as a blastocyst or blastula (a fluid-filled sphere consisting of an outer layer of cells and a group of cells inside the sphere). The developing embryo has reached the uterus with the help of the cilia in the fallopian tube. Seven days after fertilization, the blastocyst attaches itself to the endometrium. This process is known as implantation. The blastocyst with its inner cell mass becomes firmly embedded in the endometrium. An embryo will be developed in the first 8 weeks from the second month of development until birth, it is called a fetus. The fetus is enclosed in a membrane called amnion where it’ll excrete amniotic fluid to protects the fetus by absorbing shock and cushioning it from any physical damage.

If a couple is having difficulties of possessing a baby which it is called infertility. There are several reasons of this cause:

i) Blocked fallopian tubes

ii) Failure of an embryo to exert the process of implantation.

iii) The inability to produce ova

iv) Blocked vas deferen ( sperm duct )

There’re difference ways to overcome the infertility such as (IVF) which stand for In vitro fertilization, the In vitro means outside the organic body. Hence, IVF means the fertilization of a human egg outside the body. This method is used to make test tube babies like you’d seen in Star Wars – The Clone Wars. The test tube contains a nutrient-rich medium for the baby to grow in time.

Another method is that you have visit your local hospital to get yourself a surrogate mother where you need to transfer your spermatozoa and your wife’s oogonia to the surrogate mother’s uterus. The surrogate mother then becomes pregnant and the fetus develops in her uterus until birth.

*** Spoiler Alert ***

Readers sometimes ask why Alex lashes out so blindly. The following passage from The Discipling of Mytra shows an argument between Alex and one of his slave-masters. Does it make sense that a boy trapped under such “discipleship” would find himself struggling with serious anger issues?

“You know what your problem is, Alex?” his f-bot asked. “You secretly wish you could be a robot.”

Alex felt the rage boil inside him. “What do you mean?” he demanded.

“Isn’t it obvious? What are the differences between robots and humans? I mean the true distinctives that set them apart. It is true that I am smarter, sturdier, and so forth, but these are merely differences of degree. What is it, truly, that makes me a robot and you a human?”

“I have a mind and you don’t!” Alex answered hotly.

“Perhaps, perhaps,” the robot allowed. “Your ability of procession certainly indicates something. Yet I am inclined to think that this, too, is a difference of degree. I think what is really the case is that I do have a mind, a mind in some ways far superior to yours, but in other ways still quite deficient. Procession takes advantage of that deficiency, whatever it is, even as I take advantage of your brain’s limited speed whenever we play chess.

“No, I think the real differences between man and machine lie elsewhere. So I ask myself, what is truly unique to each of us: something the one has that the other has never had, and never will have? We have touched upon both already this evening, have we not? Robots have purpose, while humans have pleasure. Human beings have never had, and never will have, a reason for why they exist. Robots have never experienced, and never will experience, biological emotions.”

“That doesn’t mean I want to be a robot!” Alex yelled.

“But look at yourself, Alex. Your whole life is devoted to denying your humanity. Human life is the pursuit of pleasure: safety, food, sex – everything that tickles the key centers of your brain. For a biological life form, these are the sum of life. And they’re exactly what Mytra’s Rulers offer you in unlimited supply. Robots secure for you a safe and secure environment, free from every threat. We grow all your food for you, guaranteeing you will never go hungry. We grant you every necessity and desire of life we can, thereby freeing all your time to pursue the one pleasure we cannot give.”

“I…I don’t like sex!” Alex blurted out.

“Because you are in denial of your own humanity, because you wish there were something more to your existence than satisfying the pleasure centers of your brain. But for human beings, there is nothing else. Human life is sex. Yet you refuse to accept this. You would rather be a robot: a thinking, purposeful, asexual being.”

Alex’ mind reeled. He had begun this conversation with a clear objective. He had wanted to convince his f-bot to switch sides. Yet now the robot was trying to change his mind. But what it was saying couldn’t possibly be correct.

“I find no pleasure in sex,” Alex said. “In fact, I find it repulsive. Maybe it was different when there were females. Animals don’t seem to hate sex.”

“The Rulers,” the machine replied, “tell us that human sexual activity was actually much less pleasurable when it included females. Back then, we are assured, reproduction and relationship were major components of the sexual experience, causing it to be much less enjoyable. Now evolution has eliminated these complications. Sexual activity can be pursued with the exclusive goal of stimulating the pleasure centers of your brains. You can be more human than ever before!”

To make things clear, as some of the material you’ll find here is very light-hearted, this is an actual news report. All quotes are original. I welcome comments below.

Gay Christians Criticise ‘Hate’ Bill

Dan Bloom

Senior gay and transgender Christians have attacked a pro-discrimination law which was defeated four times in the House of Commons and criticised by the European commission.

The clause, which allows “criticism of sexual conduct” on religious grounds, was kept in the Coroners and Justice Bill in the dying hours of the last parliamentary session despite being defeated in the House of Commons. Justice minister Jack Straw retreated after lords voted to keep it for the fourth time on 11 November.

But the comments from within the UK’s gay Christian community put pressure on the mainstream church, after the European commission wrote to the government last week to say its discrimination laws were “broader than permitted”, effectively forcing churches to end bans on homosexual staff.

Pastor Kieren Bourne of the Living Springs church, Bath, had a sex change operation in 1999 and is part of a small minority of gay or transgender Christians in the UK. He said: “I think it’s appalling. It seems to me that the church is being allowed to get away with discrimination when every other section of society is not.”

Brought up in New Zealand, Rev Bourne, 51, moved to Bath 14 years ago but was surprised by what he perceived as a less liberal atmosphere in the mainstream church. He joined Living Springs, a branch of the 95 per cent gay Metropolitan Community Church (MCC).

“Having the opportunity to question the appropriateness of [gay sex] should be open to people, but without being critical of the individuals concerned.”

-Patrick Whitworth, rural dean of Bath

Now living with a woman in Bathford, Avon, he said the pressure put on gay Christians by employment bans and discrimination leaves many feeling forced out of the mainstream church, and into organisations like the MCC.

And although the minority church, which was founded in 1968, holds tri-annual conferences – the next is in Acapulco, Mexico next year – it does not have the same political weight as other organisations. It has fewer than 15 churches in the UK and the Bath branch has only 13 full-time members.

One of these, Bill Fraser, has been a full-time churchwarden in Bath for five years. He first contacted the MCC last year after announcing his sexuality at an annual parish meeting. But he stayed in the mainstream church to “fight from the inside”, following the example of controversial gay American bishop Gene Robinson.

Another, 64-year-old lay delegate Jenny Bailey, was a long-time member of the Church of England when she began attending the MCC. She revealed her sexuality to her vicar in 1997, and said his hostile reception made her feel pressured to leave.

She said: “I did not feel my personal preferences were relevant inside the church. He said they were. He seemed to think I was going to walk in holding hands with another woman.

“Just a few weeks after that I had a serious accident and broke my ankle into about seven or eight pieces. Nobody phoned to check up and see how I was. I thought, ‘Why am I kidding myself?’. They didn’t want me.”

“I did not feel my personal preferences were relevant inside the church. My vicar said they were.”

-Jenny Bailey, lay delegate, Metropolitan Community Church

But Ms Bailey, who was married for more than 22 years before realising she was gay in her 40s, also issued words of caution about restricting free speech. She said: “I want it for myself, so why should I not want it for other people? It’s up to them, and it’s their personal opinion. But they should not be able to impose it on me.”

While the MCC argues anti-homosexual readings of the bible do not reflect its meaning, the mainstream church in Bath is more traditional.

The Church of England rural dean of Bath, Patrick Whitworth, said: “From the church’s point of view it is not God’s view. So having the opportunity to question the appropriateness of it should be open to people, but without being critical of the individuals concerned.”

Meanwhile a group hosted by the MP Clare Short will meet at the Commons this Tuesday to campaign against similar clauses in the Equality Bill drawn up by Harriet Harman, Labour’s deputy leader.

The bill is designed to ensure greater equality between people of different gender, race, religion and social class. But the group argues religious ‘opt-out’ clauses could be added as the bill progresses to the House of Lords.

Ok, have you ever made a decision and questioned if your final one was the right one?  Who among us hasn’t?  It can range the gamut from “Why did I say that?” to “Is this message from God or…….?” I think in one form or another, we have each had our moments of questioning and I am no different.

I have posted before about forgiveness.  I have shared my thoughts on what I believe God expects of us as His children where this decision is concerned.  It truly is a decision, a choice, an option.  God gives us all the tools we need and then allows us to seek His guidance in utilizing those tools.

Sometimes the choices are easy, sometimes, not so much.  It is sometimes VERY clear what we should do in response to certain circumstances but there are those situations where it is not as cut and dry.  In these instances, we have the opportunity to stretch our faith and dependency on Him.

In my own life, I have struggled with those who have crossed my path (and patience) and left a bitter taste in my mouth.  I am left with the decision of how to proceed, whether or not to try to reconcile or simply move forward and away from a potentially harmful situation.  I believe that the decisions we make when faced with difficult choices are determined by our experiences.   How have we handled such things in the past?  How would we like to change the way we do things in the future?  Where are we in our spiritual walk with the Lord and our understanding of what we believe He would have us do?  All these things are factors.

There are people who are simply passing through my life, here for only a season and in those instances the choice is an easy one.  Yet others are a part of it (for better or worse) for as long as God grants me breath.  I can look back and see where I have been challenged by fractured relationships and where I have learned from them (good or bad there is always a lesson to be learned).

The Lord tells us in Luke 6:37 that we have to forgive so we will forgiven.

Matthew 6:14-16 tells us that if we do not forgive then the Father will not forgive us.

Forgiveness is ALWAYS about us not the person we need to forgive.  My pastor said recently something that I found very intriguing.  He said that holding onto the anger and unforgiveness is like allowing someone to possess valuable real estate without paying any rent.  Wow!  That is a word picture if ever I saw one.  It doesn’t affect the other person at all if we hold onto our unforgiveness.  Emotional hurt and injury causes us to want to recoil and shut down for self-protection.  It makes us want to be less open, less trusting, less willing to put ourselves out there.  Yet this behavior choice only causes us distress not the other person who perpetrated the offense on us.  We, in our human nature, sometimes seek resolutions that are, well, I’ll say less than “Christ-like”.   There is much truth in the phrase “The best revenge is living a good, happy life”.

In all my studies, I have never found where the Lord asks us to “forgive and forget”.  This is one of those phrases that is attributed to the Bible without foundation.  Like the phrase “Cleanliness is next to Godliness”.  Good intentions,  but not biblical.  From some standpoints, there are many cases where forgetting the grievance is not the wisest position to take.  Forgiveness of an abuser is one those areas where you need to be cautious.  Whether the abuse is physical, emotional, sexual or spiritual……..forgive? yes!  Forget? NO!  One needs to carefully and sincerely seek the Lord’s guidance in such situations.  Forgiving your abuser is a requirement but the actions you choose to take in light of such violations has to be a matter of prayer.  Each person has to be at peace with the decision they make and be willing to live with the consequences which follow.

We are instructed in Proverbs 4:23 to “Guard our hearts because everything you do flows from it”.

I believe we can make a choice to forgive someone for offenses without keeping a relationship with that person.  Forgetting is not a requirement we are instructed to embrace.  Each situation is unique must be examined on its own merits.  If your spirit is right before God, if you can honestly say you have forgiven then no one can or should judge your intent or heart.  No one knows the heart of another and as such, we must all be careful of how we convey our perspectives when attaching them to someone elses actions.  Keeping ourselves holy and just before God is our most fundamental as well as our highest goal.  Work toward that objective and be convinced deep in your soul that your behavior is in line with the Spirit.  Allow God to be the force which guides your actions.

Above all……guard your heart!

What says elegance better than pearls? But pearls, or at least the women who wear them, can certainly be sexy, too. The beauties in The Magic of Women: Girls with Pearls shine like the lustrous pearls around their pretty necks.

Some pearls that up the wattage: 50w, 75w, 100w, 150w, 200w.

Oddly, there are utterly no appropriate groups on Flickr for “girls with pearls”.

Looks like all the really good gloves groups on Flickr are private. But this one might suffice.

Christians do not sell heroin or sex; how dare they sell Satan’s lies?

We often take a public stance against abortion, sexual immorality, or Darwinism. However, none of these things, in themselves, take the name of our Master and drag it through mud.

Compare these two possible behaviors for a child of God:

• Snuff cocaine at a strip club while reading Aleister Crowley’s Book of Thoth; or
• Purchase a Bible at a so-called Christian bookstore that also sells every kind of lie under the banner of Christ, from Joel Osteen be-happy-then-go-to-hell books to Roman Catholic rub-here-to-pay-God trinkets.

The money we give to the bookstores is funding all kinds of perverted false gospels that drag men into hellfire, and the spirits of the false prophets behind them. We aren’t even supposed to welcome such people into our home (2 John) or eat with them (1 Corinthians 5:11).

Culture teaches us that Joseph Stalin and Charles Manson are more evil than Benny Hinn, who I suppose hasn’t ever killed or raped anyone; yet scripture teaches that there is a really special place in hell for the false prophet. [I am not condemning Benny Hinn or Joel Osteen in the perfect tense-- God may yet give them new life, according to His sovereign will.]

Now you, if you call yourself a Jew; if you rely on the law and brag about your relationship to God; if you know his will and approve of what is superior because you are instructed by the law; if you are convinced that you are a guide for the blind, a light for those who are in the dark, an instructor of the foolish, a teacher of infants, because you have in the law the embodiment of knowledge and truth— you, then, who teach others, do you not teach yourself? You who preach against stealing, do you steal? You who say that people should not commit adultery, do you commit adultery? You who abhor idols, do you rob temples? You who brag about the law, do you dishonor God by breaking the law? As it is written: “God’s name is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you.” (from Romans 2^[1]; emphasis mine)

Our unbelieving friends mock Jesus Christ and post videos on our Facebook walls about foolish “Christians” behaving like drunkards. They laugh about those who claim to preach the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ and then sign treaties with Muslims because “we all serve the God of Abraham.” They use this to slander Christianity, and to formulate some dying justification to not consider their need, nor the Savior.

It might be different if a store simply confessed to be a “Religious Bookstore.” In this, they would not overtly associate any particular piece of crap in their store with Christ; despite that a true Christian employee could hardly swipe the credit card for a customer who is buying such unhealthy material. Christians do not sell heroin or sex; how dare they sell Satan’s lies?  This is not love. We ought not even handle these things, except when throwing them into the fire.

I’m not a theologian; it’s just something I’ve been thinking about. Yet something else is lurking in my mind– abortions are funded by our governments in Canada. I’ve been sending my province $54 per month to pay for medical coverage. Is it worth that to me? I am not my own; and God is well able to provide. Perhaps that will be my next post, but right now I’m in some tense place between praying to understand God’s will and debating with Arminian “Christians” who think a Christian should use his own understanding to care for his health and family and heap up retirement funds in glaring conflict with the teachings of our Master (Matthew 6).

Esto nos demuestra que la desesperacion lleva a los “artistas” cuando su carrera esta en el hoyo a la busqueda de los reflectores y de la atencion, Enrique Iglesias tan X como lo ha sido en toda su carrera intento filmar su pelicula porno con una profesional y con David Lachapelle como director, el resultado un grito desesperado por decir “hey se acuerdan de mi, sigo vivo y lo que mas importa, estoy muy bueno joder”!… juzguen ustedes mismos

“The great question that has never been answered, and which I have not yet been able to answer, despite my thirty years of research into the feminine soul, is ”What does a woman want?””- Sigmund Freud

The first time I gazed into your eyes, diving into your pupils learning your inner subconscious thoughts. It was during this exact moment in time I praised god, and could see in your expression that you were mentally trashing every dildo in your possession for you wanted me as your new pleasure device. Except this time no batteries are necessary. Like a Pavlovian dog viewing a bone I can sense  you drooling through your kitten. Your pussy-cup filling up with the Venus blessed sugar-cream juices.

I may not be what your use to but tonight I’ll be your battery operated boyfriend.

We stood transfixed in the doorway of our mind fucking each other thoughtfully, but only as servants to our desires opening a diary of newfound lust with no church to condemn us. Subconsciously I was licking your plump lips meanwhile imagining all the bedroom possibilities. The Mirror image of friends turned lovers as we beheld the  forming of an erotic sonnet around the clouds of our silhouette.

I may not know what you want but I do know what you need.

You need some head that defines illumination. That streaks light across light  and defines what being  wet really is over soaked sheets. Some head that curls nouns. That makes you want to become Picasso and become climatically inclined into painting all over a wet dream. You will create and perform and while making. You will be made. You will be molded and transformed into eloquence. You need some floating high above a purple sticky haze body rocking prayers turning into hi-def moaning head. Some daylight fading into a sweated out evening while moonlight shines against the small of my back enhancing moisture presence head. Some incomprehensible yet comprehensible emotions sketched into raging silhouettes head. You need that papaya, peach, mango fruit, bursting flavors from your g-spot head.

Okay so if you know me at all you also know that I hate crying, it’s not that I dont like to show emotion its more that I hate feeling sad or depressed in any way especially when it comes to something I can avoid like a movie. Well last night some friends and I (Arvelisha Woods, Brandy King, & India Pernell) decided hey, why not go see Precious, I was uneasy about it but I joined anyway. The movie was….REAL, and thats the only way it can be described, I have never had to deal  with something like this or even known anyway who has been abused to such an extent, and it really brought me down to earth. I left the movie theatre feeling a sense of sadness as well as thankfulness that I am a better parent to my child and that my mom was a better parent to me. I know that there are a lot of women out there who endure sexual and physical abuse, the movie Precious was able to give me a deeper look into that, made me want to be able to help in some way . While we are out here living and complaining we need to take the time to really be thankful for whatever support system God Blesses us with…

GAH even the trailer makes tears well up in my eyes
