I have the BEST boyfriend EVER!!!! Frsrsly!!

There is nothing better than the "best".

That's what defines the "best".

So, how in the world can everyone have the "BEST" boyfriend or girlfriend ever??

Even just two "best boyfriends" is a contradiction. Yet, it seems that everyone who is on facebook has the best boyfriend/girlfriend in the world...

So...

Either everyone is dating the same guy or girl....

OR....

Everyone is highly confused at the definition of "best".

Or, perhaps "best" is just a matter of perspective and opinion. In which case, each individual is only comparing their current "best" significant other to significant others that they have had in the past. (Unless of course they specify "best in the world", which is a whole 'nother delima.)

Example 1: Billy was the best boyfriend ever to Sally. Only because Sally had never had a boyfriend. In actuality, Billy wasn't that great of a boyfriend. When Sally dumped Billy and started dating George, George was now the "best" boyfriend. While, Billy was merely a "better" boyfriend.

Example 2: Charissa was Robert's best girlfriend ever. WAS. Robert has dated many girls, and was now dating Molly. Molly was only a "good" girlfriend. Another previous girlfriend, Stefanie,  was the better girlfriend.

It's also just possible that everyone's significant others are progressively getting better. If that's the case... Shouldn't Taylor Swift have the perfect boyfriend by now? (Just wondering)

It seems to me that the best just keep getting worse and those on facebook just keep getting more annoying. Now, I'm not trying to dis anyone, but let's be real.

Not everyone has the "best" boyfriend or girlfriend. The fact that relationship statuses change so quickly goes to support the theory that they either didn't have the proclaimed "best" or weren't the "best" themselves.. possibly both.

That's all I got...

How to take a bath.

I was taking a bath earlier and realized something. It is really hard to have a successful long hot bath.

Don't roll your eyes at that. Think about it.

When you're in the mood for a real hot bath you get in the tub, turn on the water as hot as it will go.... and then end up getting out fifteen minutes later because it's so hot. You can't breath very well. And, any other reason you can think of.

I would like to explain how you can take a successful, long, hot bath.

1. Turn the water on to a warmer temperature and sit in the tub as it is filling up. This will help start adjusting your body to handle the really hot water for an extended period of time. (Do not at anytime during this stage turn the water to hot. Hot water at this point will ruin the bath all together, despite the temptation in your head saying it'll be fine.)

2. Continue at this stage until the bathtub is almost all the way full. (About three fourths) At this point, it would be foolish to keep the water on a warm/hot, as it would be a waste of all of the prepping for such an enjoyable long-lasting bath.

3. If the previous steps were correctly followed, you now have a sturdy foundation for a hot bath. If the hot water was turned on any sooner then it would throw the balance off and you would not be able to withstand a full, long, hot bath. Crank the heat up until the bath is all of the way full and enjoy your long waited for, patience won, hot bath!

*DISCLAIMER*: I cannot guarantee the safety of turning up the heat before prescribed in my instructions. The key to a successful long-lasting bath is waiting for the proper foundation.

END.

Odd Reality

Has anybody made the observation lately that the measurement of humor varies depending of who's present?

For example, I could be watching a crude children's movie all by my lonesome and just be completely disgusted at how they resort to potty humor to make kids laugh. Then re-watch said movie the following week with my cousins and that same movie that once brought my scorn suddenly becomes the most hysterical thing I've ever seen.

I've had a friend tell me they weren't going to watch a movie until they could see it in my presence for the fear that it would be less enjoyable than they remembered.

And through the course of the last several days I've realized, my life is insane. Actually, I already knew that. But depending on who you are and the way you perceive things my life could be anything. And not in the dreamy "You can be anything" as in, depending on how you look at it: my life is a horror movie. Or, my life if a dramatic romance, without the romance, with some extra drama. Or, my life is a comedy written by Moffat. (Meaning, it snot actually a comedy, just hysterical to watch. And, very insane.) Hey, for the amount of times we break out in song at my house, I could even be a musical. In the most rare of times my life could even be an inspirational movie.

The perception of my life could lead to many very different, very entertaining, conclusions. And as the same with humor and many other aspects, this is altered by the people I talk to and spend time with.

Isn't that somewhat of a sad thing though? I mean, what kind of a person would I surround myself with that would make my life a horror film? *shudder* Better yet, would I  be the one that's the killer?? All this talk of horror has made me forget where I'm going with this... that is to say, IF I was going anywhere... it's like a train wreck...

Oh, so if the people you spend time with can affect so much of the way you see things maybe you should monitor more of who you see. Now, I'm not telling you to go dump all of your friends who make you feel uncomfortable, or the ones who keep your head out of the clouds. Moreover, surround yourself by the people who will always encourage you in Christ.

Iron sharpens iron. Make sure that you are sharpening yourself with Godly iron, as becoming sharp for any other purpose can only lead to failure.

End.

Because your steadfast love is better than life, my lips will praise you.

I would like to share some lyrics from a Tenth Avenue North song.

Surely by now many have noticed I have a thing for the said band... but bear with me.

King of all the earth and every age
All creation waits for You
And trembles at Your name
Surrounded on a throne of endless praise
Fire and lightning flash from the glory of Your face
And I sing to You

You are Holy
You are worthy
You are Holy
You’re the lamb of God

You are Holy
You are worthy
You are Holy
You’re the lamb of God

How do I dare approach this Holy One
The One who was and is, was and is to come
Robed in righteousness and mystery
We have only just begun, just begun to see
So I come broken through
The blood of Your Son and I kneel before You

You are Holy
You are worthy
You are Holy
You’re the lamb of God

You are Holy
You are worthy
You are Holy
You’re the lamb of God

Blessing and honor and glory and power
To Him who sits on the throne
Blessing and honor and glory and power
Forever to our God alone

You are Holy
You are worthy
You are Holy
You’re the lamb of God

You are Holy
You are worthy
You are Holy
You’re the lamb of God

Oh, You are Holy
You are worthy
You are Holy
You’re the lamb of God

You are Holy
You are worthy
You are Holy
You’re the lamb of God

You are Holy, Lord
Holy, God, You’re Holy, Lord
You are Holy, Lord


The lyrics may become somewhat repetitive. But, when one speaks the pure truth, sometimes there is nothing left but to continue proclaiming it. Sitting under my covers late at night when I should be sleeping listening to Mike Donehey proclaiming the absolute truth about my God is somewhat bringing tears to my eyes. Then, it makes me sad, because this is what music was created for. It is so that God can be glorified. Is He glorified by the music that I sing and listen to?

I have gotten honestly really disappointed by myself this evening in having to honestly tell myself that I disgrace God with the music that I sing in the car, in the shower, while cleaning or cooking, instead of honoring Him. It's frustrating.

We should be able to look God in the face and worship Him with the music that we sing. Now imagine doing that with a Lady Gaga song. The mere thought brings great distaste to my mouth. The music that comes on the radio commonly is not only not worshiping the LORD, it is flat out glorifying things that the LORD hates. Why would putting such before Him be a small offense?

I'm not trying to give any one who reads this a guilt trip (I say one, because if I'm lucky one person will read this). However, if you are somewhat feeling guilty over the music that you turn to perhaps there is more at work in your heart than guilt.

Moreover, I want to challenge you to think about the music that escapes you mouth, and is fed to your brain. How does this praise my God? How will this glorify Him?

He is Worthy. He is Holy.Why hesitate?
