Nourishment For The Soul.

The world is controlled by love and hate.

I'm learning in Thanatology that one of the first steps in a hero's life is their Call To Adventure. They begin as an average person who feels like they're missing something in life. I feel like I'm missing something... How cool it would be to be a hero.

Lord help me, that time is near.  It's starting to hit me that I'm gonna be out..new friends, new life. Truth is, I'm a little scared. mehh.

Why are certain ideas mutually exclusive? Why can we not believe that God initiated the evolutionary process? Perhaps instead of siding with one, doesn't God want us to unite?  The stories of the Bible are very old. Methods have changed.  I know religion can be a very touchy subject but it's just my opinion.. "I don't believe that God would want me to ignore the findings of scientists: People who look upon His Universe with awe, curiosity, and a reasoned discipline."

Charlie Chaplin's Speech. a pleasure to watch. All of life's truths placed in one video.

Today is for each other. Today is for each other. Today is for each other.

"Of the billions of people on this earth, we are the fortunate few who knew Sho. Let us live by his example." Sitting here at Sho's memorial service (listening to Japanese translation), I ask myself why people die. Why some later, why some so soon. I see friends from a long time ago..friends I haven't kept in touch with, and we are all sitting in the same room. It's strange that I am taken by the thought that this may be the last time I ever see them again, yet here I sit, away from them..a bit scared to approach them. Can't take these things for granted. Well I'm gonna go say hi now to them now. Rest in peace Sho.

How do you handle your frustration? I have a problem with frustration. For me, I find the best way to handle it is to wait til I cool down a little, run, then talk things out with someone. I've been working on patience. Really being patient. However I've been working at the wrong patience. An abused bottled patience. If I am patient for too long, I end up blowing up in anger. And really, that isn't what patience is at all. So when one say "Be patient", it does not mean to hold in your anger. It is when you can accept or tolerate your troubles or suffering without getting upset..or, in other words, letting go and moving on. I will work at being patient.  and for some reason...for those who watched "Chronicle". I think of Andrew " Beware of him that is slow to anger; for when it is long coming, it is the stronger when it comes, and the longer kept. Abused patience turns to fury.  "

"The happiest people don't have the best of everything..they make the best of everything." I really like this quote. People complain (including myself) that they're not happy. but but but we can all be happy if we want to!!! Here's a song playlist that lifts up my spirits and hopefully yours as well.

I've been a little distraught lately about a lot of things going on. People left and right letting each other down. Relationships gone bad. Close friends and family dying..and truth is, I don't know what to do anymore. I wrote this because it's the only way I can really express myself right now...I really enjoy poetry as well. This goes out to anyone who's struggling. It's focused on lying and dec eit but I guess it can go any way. Hope you like it ( i added dramatic music LOLLL) lyrics: They say it’s so cliché, the way we cheat into lies to make the other stay. Faking smiles to keep a palate clean, Denying truth, so the truth is not seen. Well I just have a message to say, reminding you That if you’re a man who plays, or a woman who craves The pleasure of more than one can measure, You’re in that place. Avoiding the tears of your partner’s face? Or burdened by what you can’t erase? They say that’s the burden of pride. I once heard that being sorry is the highest ...

"Life is short. We seem to think that we’ll live forever. We spend time and money as though we’ll always be here. We buy shiny things as though they matter and are worth the debt and stress of attachment. We put off the so-called “trip of a lifetime” for another year, because we all assume we have another year. We don’t tell the ones we love how much we love them often enough because we assume ther e’s always tomorrow. And we fear. Oh, do we fear. We stick it out in miserable jobs and situations because we’re afraid of the risk of stepping out. We don’t reach high enough or far enough because we’re worried we’ll fail, forgetting – or never realizing – that it’s better to fail spectacularly while reaching for the stars than it is to succeed at something we never really wanted in the first place." -David duChemin

Hey everyone. I'm Deanna Sun. I have many blogs online, so it seems like this is nothing new...but none of them ever really had a purpose but to post silly things. I've decided to switch things up a bit, now that college is near and so many things are happening at once. Pain and suffering seem to overcome us more often than joy..so I decided to make a blog for whoever's dealing with pain. Or just any knowledge I've learned in general from personal experience. This blog is inspired by Sho Funai. Just yesterday, my friend Sho passed away...and although it's been a long time since I've seen him face to face, I will never forget all the times that we've talked online and how much of an inspiration he is to me and everyone else. I saw his blog for the first time today, and it was so inspirational, and he has inspired me to be like him. They say that all the good die young..and you were one of those people, Sho. I want to follow in your steps and start living an...
