It’s bad. But it’s good. I don’t know how to explain it any better than that.

Why it’s possible that some of what I like may be utter crap

 
   

2010-03-31 20:16:18

No, I don’t like Andy Gibb or disco. No I don’t like romance novels

But I do like some pretty horrible stuff.

Is that so wrong?

The Selfish in Marriage

 
   

2009-05-19 21:44:40

I don’t have much to add to this other than context. This is sort of a response to some therapy I was in. We had a discussion on personalizing principles and how, even if the answer is right, if the answer isn’t personal, it isn’t helpful. I thought a little about how to meet my own needs — and how to get what I needed, I had to be a certain way. But in order to be that way, I had to have my needs met. Where do you start? This also is influenced by both my father and my father-in-law talking about the first sentence — that the gospel is at it’s core selfish. We live it because it makes us happy.

Personal History – II

 
   

2006-04-25 14:46:05

Being Where I get in a lot of trouble. Reading over this again, I’m kind of embarassed by it. I suppose if it’d happened to someone else, I’d find it kinda funny. Oh well. I also found a long list of events to write about from age 5 to 8. So expect to see more personal history entries
