I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful. You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you. Remain in me, and I will remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me. I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing. If anyone does not remain in me, he is like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned. If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be given you. This is to my Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples. NIV John 15:1-8
reflection
I’m starting to think that that last article I posted was a hoax, it could simply have been an April Fool’s thing, and it got me!
Anyway, it made me think…
No pain no gain? People too happy with what they have to buy new products? Suddenly the word ‘toilet’ rang in my head. We’re happy with our toilets, right? It does its job well, too damn well. I sits there everyday and it never complains when we crap on it. It’s happy enuff as long as we flush after we’re done. No one in the world hardly ever thinks about replacing their toilet, or coming with a better idea of crapping. I guess that Microsoft bitch was right, no pain no gain! And I guess we’ll be stuck with the same old toilet for another thousand years!
What is crime?
According to Webster crime is an act of violation of a law prohobiting or ordering it; a wrongdoing, as felony or treason, which affects the whole public; an offense against morality, a sin.
It’s obvious that it’s a crime to commit murder. But what if the murder was committed to oneself, suicide?! Is it crime to commit suicide? Is it crime to even attempt it? I never heard a story where someone goes to jail for trying to kill him/her-self. I guess it’s not crime to violate your own rights to live.
Why then is it crime to smoke pot? I don’t remember about the law in the States, but here in Indonesia, one cannot have a smoke without the cops chasing after him.
You’re only damaging [killing] yourself when you do drugs. Pot isn’t even addictive. Why is it so wrong to get a little grip of heaven? You’re not even hurting anyone. Doctors said that a controlled amount of weed is good for you. Why the hell is it so illegal here??
I stare into the dark sky,
nothing but void.
I close my eyes,
see inside my mind.
There is an empty room,
just as lonely as the sky,
in the corner there’s a chair,
broken and dusted,
beaten and wasted.
My world is empty,
numb I feel.
Then I hear a laughter,
that of the devil.
Then I hear a laughter,
that of mine.
Then I lie down,
and then I’m gone.
HAHAHAHAHA!!!
Would Bush really risk a nuclear holocaust in order to gain control of the world’s largest oil source? More on CNN.
Personally I hate the idea of war, it destructs nations that people have long suffered and persevered to build. I do like watching war movies tho, they give me the chills, especially during those quiet scenes when soldiers live one second and die another. To be honest I don’t really care now, but maybe if I ever joined the Marines back in ’96 I would’ve been a bit more excited about putting my combat trainings into practice!
