With that it mind, my day was ok (not well, sprained ankle is till sore) but apart from that I learnt a few new things about myself, which made me happy!

  1. its a wonder how much people know about themselves.

    'Know' meaning a relationship beyond face knowledge, beyond the exterior of =)s, lols, omgs and bffs. Beyond the jokes and comments that are really building up the confidence and face value of that user. creating a profile of self, and always trying to add to self. Good intentions and nice comments look and sound great to the hearing ear or seeing eye. But what is really deep within the person, the user of the 'exterior'.

    The interior is in the age of 'face value'. Looks, talk, and objects supersede the deep longing for 'interconnectedness', why because they are more easy to work with, there's no hard work to connect, a couple of clicks and push of buttons and your done. Because it is all about the user, the self, the status that everyone sees. But any deeper then this, the interior must acknowledge and come to life, and work to overcome a conflict, or more confronting, realize that we dont care and the real life we live deep within ourselves, is lost.

    But, there is hope, it is to be found, is to be recognized, validated, and connected to someone in out interior. Someone that we may be with regardless of exterior. Not relying on things of exterior but of the interior, life we cannot see, but can hope for, live for, breathe for and know that it is there, for it is within and beyond ourselves that we find purpose, not our actual self.

    Be dependent on someone greater then the independence of yourself. This i think, looks something like this:

    A spirit that reveals to us a savior that came for us to show a God that loves us.

    Interconnectedness.
