I know I haven't made a blog in awhile!

So, I'm going to make a short one.
Ask me questions about anything, I need something to talk about as of now! :D Thank you!

What is

Your motivation to do well? Whether it be fear of failure, or hate of losing, anything. What motivates you?

why is it

That I see people walk away from God because of how people treat them?
You should not just simply walk away from God because of what people think of you, most people are hypocrites themselves, me being one. I know how it feels to be discriminated for your ideas, or feelings. I just suggest that you don't give in, and you don't let people's persecution and hatred get in your way.
Feel your worth every single day and know that you're an individual who is going to be persecuted for being different. Everyone feels it at one time or another, you're never alone. And if you feel alone, you can talk to me or anyone else who you may trust or feel comfortable with. It's not a good feeling, and I don't want any of you to hurt with the feeling of worthlessness.
Thank you for reading.

faith

Everything I hear from people is about how their life, or even how I go about things. How life isn't going the way that they want it to, or I want it to. I've been thinking quite a bit about this, and it really makes me feel weird how just because of the way my life is going at the time, I'll act differently toward people who are completely innocent toward the reason I am feeling that way. The point I'm getting at is very simple, don't place your faith in something temporary, this goes along with my post from a couple days ago. Just because you feel faithless right now doesn't mean tomorrow everything won't change. As far as you know, your whole life could be changed in one day just because you've placed your faith in the right or wrong things. So, just try to place your faith in what you think would direct you into the correct path of life. If you live according to what's good, and what is righteous, not much can go wrong.

A book I read today

I was reading a book called, Our Daily Bread, earlier. It's a daily devotional book, hence the name. And to any of you that happen to know me personally, I'm not going through the greatest of times, but it'll all work its self out in the end. Keep in mind, I've not opened this book in nearly eight months, or so. I flipped to June fifth.
The title of this page was "A Nineteen-Mile Fall"
The scripture related is Deuteronomy 33:27
I'm going to paraphrase his whole page, so try and bear with me.

      "On August 16, 1960, U.S. Air Force Captain Joseph Kittinger Jr. sat in a gondola suspended from a high-altitude balloon. When the balloon reached 102,800 feet above the surface of Earth (more than 19 miles), Kittinger jumped out. Four minutes and 36 seconds later his main parachute opened at 18,000 feet, but not before he had attained a velocity of 614 miles per hour! Kittinger carefully planned his record-setting descent.
      In the spiritual realm, we're more likely to find that life is filled with unexpected free-falls. The loss of a loved one, a broken relationship, or a terminated job can make us feel as if we're dropping into the unknown. For believers, however, there is a spiritual "parachute"     The loving arms of God.
      Thousands of years ago, Moses wrote these words to the Israelites just before he died: "The eternal God is your refuge and underneath and the everlasting arms" (Deuteronomy 33:27). The words "everlasting arms" refer to the protection and preservation of God's people. Despite the stressful circumstances they would surely face, they could rest in the assurance of God's watchful care.
      Do you feel as if you're in a free-fall? Take heart. God's loving arms are there to catch you."

"O the sweet unfailing refuge
Of the everlasting arms;
In their loving clasp enfolded
Nothing worries or alarms." -Hennessay

   It's odd how I take things into consideration when people speak, even if it's cliche. "God works in mysterious ways", is one of the things I'd consider in this situation. Although a cliche, the words make sense when you look at them in this retrospect. It's a really great thing when I'm able to open a book randomly and feel comforted because I know who is watching out for me, and who will always be there for me.
I appreciate you reading once again, thank you.

I haven't made a post in a while.

So, I'm going to make it a meaningful one to me. It's a very big deal, and if you don't agree, don't act in an angry manner, I apologize for your views being different than mine, but we're all individuals.

After searching through my room for my bible, I thought about how this symbolizes our culture in the world we live in.
There is so much of a mess around us we forget to prioritize what is good, and what we desire. Most people choose desire over what is good, because the temporary feeling of happiness or fulfillment makes them feel nice. Versus what will give them fulfillment in their lives forever. 

I find this very scary and true. Our world consumes us so much, that we see so very little of what actually matters and what should be priority in our lives. What makes it worse is, we can sit in our homes and do nothing about it, while living happily in apathy toward the culture in the world. Whether it be drugs, sex, or plaguing deception, people buy into it like it's the greatest thing ever without thinking twice about it. This is where we need to wake up and live for what is right, not what feels good. You know what I'm talking about if you've ever felt the pain of guilt, or conviction. Conviction is a good thing, it's really something that you should take into consideration when you have that little bit of pain in your stomach that you say is probably just you being nervous. That is what conviction feels like, especially if you've felt guilt after doing something, so just keep that in mind. Live with conviction, live without regret due to it. Thank you for reading. :D

It's awesome!

That you guys almost have me at 500 hits. Which I find incredible!
Also, just to update my workout for lean muscle.
I've been doing Reverse benchpress pyramids @ 115 pounds x 20 reps, 95 pounds x 20 reps, 75 pounds x 20 reps, 55 pounds x 20 reps, and 45 (bar) x RTF.
Also, doing incline flies @ 20 pounds x 4 sets x 20 reps and on the fourth set I do RTF.
Reverse flies @ 30 pounds x 4 sets x 20 reps fourth is also RTF.
Pull ups wide-grip with a slight assist, because I don't have a bar, I use my benchpress bar with weighting for more stability. 3 sets RTF each set.
Curls @ 30 pounds x 5 sets x 16 reps fifth set is RTF.
Skullcrushers @ 40 pounds x 4 sets x 16 rep fourth set is RTF.
Shoulder Press @ 30 pounds per dumbbell x 2 sets each x 16 last set is RTF.
Daltoid front and side lift @ 20 pounds per dumbbell x 3 sets x 16 reps per set third is RTF.
The rest of my body I workout with plyometrics, isometrics, or aerobic exercise. Thank you for reading.
Feel free to give me any advice or anything you've found more effective, I've kinda freestyled this anyway. Like I said, thanks again for reading!

Well.

On facebook, I update my status way too much, it seems.
I don't care, I guess, but I can see how it would get on one's nerves, haha.
Therefore, I apologize. I have some great news, though! I ran a 7 minute 30 second mile today in the rain, while on the phone for a minute, limiting my breath. I feel pretty successful today, actually. I am a bit proud, not gonna lie.

Isn't it grand how great friends are.

When people are only there for you when either you absolutely beg them to be, or you have something to offer them. This is another thing that I absolutely DESPISE. If you wish to piss me off, act like you're my friend for a while, until I actually need you to be my friend, then completely abandon me. Honestly, if someone asks me to hang out, I'm not going to ditch them over some stupid excuse, or just completely ignore them, because I know how it feels to be the person who is left out, or forgotten about, not saying that is me all the time, but, since I have been put in that position time and time again, I'm not going to make someone feel like that by any means. It really does hurt to be the one who is left out, especially when you know your friends are hanging out without you. Maybe I'm just a bad person who deserves it, I don't know. I don't have an excuse for it, because I don't say I can't hang out over something, even though it is clear that I can.
All I'm saying is, when you're asked to hang out, don't give someone a bullshit excuse just because you don't want to. Be straight up with them, or be a friend. That is my advice.

It would seem that people are blind.

I despise a lot of things, but most of all, it's ignorance and blindness to truth.
If you're going to be a douchebag, I suggest you better be able to take someone telling it straight back to you.
Kthxbai.

I hate eating oats or egg whites every meal.

Seriously, the most boring foods ever are the ones I have to eat every meal to cut weight...
Oh well, I guess it's better than starving, I really should look more positively on everything.
Even if it sucks right now, everything's going to fall right into place the way it's supposed to, it may involve some bad, but at least it will happen according to plan.

What is the most effective

Cardio exercise that you've ever done, both combining weight resistance, or isometric resistance. Muscle building, and stamina building. Fat burning, and effective.

During a zombie apocalypse...

What would you actually do?
Tell me how you'd plan to get out of the picture during a zombie apocalypse. I would love to hear it, or read it, rather.

Who

Do you find inspirational musician wise?
And why do you find them inspirational?

My name should be

The keeper of pointless facts...
I tend to just be like, did you know? I'm pretty sure that I do this about fifty to a hundred times a day at no specific time, it will just be sporadic, and I'll just say, DO YOU KNOW?, then I'll think to myself about fifteen minutes later. "Who the fuck am I? Bill Nye the Science Guy?", even though half of the things I say have nothing to do with science, just random crap that doesn't really matter.
Personally, I think it's kind of funny in retrospect. Sometimes I'll be wrong about one of my, "pointless facts", then I'll stand corrected about it, and I'll know next time to say it differently, ha.
I have no idea what to talk about now, since this blog has just about nothing to be based on, I'm kind of just finding things to rant on. It's a lot harder than what I thought it would be anyway. Kinda sucks, but, I guess a blog about life is kind of a subject, even though life is very vague. I appreciate you reading this, though. Actually taking the time out of your schedule to look at this thing. Thanks :D

Bah

I haven't been able to get hardly any sleep in the past couple of days... There's been an insane amount on my mind. I'm not sure how to cope right now, but it'll be alright. I'm going to try and refrain from worrying.
I don't see how people put paragraphs of things on this blog deal. I can barely get three sentences in before I've felt that I've put everything into it. Maybe I'm boring, I hope I'm just boring on this blog, though, I really would hate being considered boring outside of this. Now, I find myself rambling about almost nothing that is really worth mentioning, and I apologize.

Sleep Paralysis

I had my first sleep paralysis dream about 2 nights ago.
I was sure I was asleep, though. It relieved my worries a little bit.
Although, I did see a large, almost gigantic black figure right next to my legs on my bed, just standing, appearing to have something horn-like on it's head, appearing to be male, also.
I awoke, and last night, I had trouble sleeping due to ample fear that it would get worse, from what I hear, it has gotten worse for most people. I just hope it doesn't happen again, or anytime soon at least.

Oh, best friend.

I would do anything for you to just be back again.
Anything within my power.
Too bad, I'm not magic.
I sure wish I was about now.

I found some ratings...

This is another rant of mine. :D
Basically, I find music rating by critics very flawed, and very biased.
Really, how do you just believe what a critic says? He has a very possible chance of being biased, or disliking of the genre already. User reviews are often more favorable, in my opinion, I'd rather have the common person who listens to similar music rate it, there may be a slight bias, but it's not their job, so they have no reason other than to provide information upon listening to the record.
The point is, I wouldn't suggest you pay attention to critic's ratings on music, on most movies, yes, but not music at all.
Something I may find good is something you may find bad, and if you are a critic, that puts you at a bias. Find someone who listens to similar music so the bias is at least worthy of listening to, not negative, not positive, just for the genre.

Blame yourselves, blame me.

You know what really pisses me off? When people say Obama acts like he is a god, or some bullcrap idea of a deity.
Maybe he'll stop acting that way when you stop expecting him to be your deity.

Go ahead, try and tell me I'm wrong, you'll find your own hypocrisy when you look around and say he's a  terrible president who doesn't know how to do his job. Then look at yourself and ask, could you do the job he does?

My point is overall, you can't fix everything when he's got to make budget cuts to fix the deficit he tried to fix in the beginning. You may say, that was wasted money, but in reality, he was at least seeing what may work. Don't forget who put us in the situation, don't forget who put him in that situation, it was a lot of what the Bush administration did,  and the Clinton administration. The Clinton administration passed up many opportunities to possibly prevent the 9/11 attacks. He obviously didn't, though, he simply ignored them. Think about it, not everything is always the current president's fault, at least Obama is trying, and that is one of my main points.

Thank you for reading.

I'm guessing

That I'm supposed to have a base topic for a blog, but I guess if a blog is about life, it doesn't matter what I base it off of. It's life, it's sporadic, and things happen in it that change very quickly.

Please let me know.

If you don't find this blog interesting, tell me something to talk about that interests you! I'd be more than happy to.

Short story ideas

Anybody care to throw some good ideas for me to start off with? I really don't mind to try anything, I mean, anything within normality. If something good comes from it, I'll definitely give the credit to who deserves it, if you're looking at this and reading it, shoot an idea, please.

Parkway Drive

Basically, I would do near anything to meet Parkway Drive. They all seem like such dedicated people, and they play amazing music, and have done so much to get where they are. They inspire me more than any other type of music really, although I do appreciate Lupe Fiasco as of lately.
Tell me which one you appreciate most, not just for sound, but for lyrics.

My mom

Is quite amazing.
My Dad on the other hand, doesn't understand me at all. Literally, he'll just find reasons to be mad at me, and I will admit, he is right to be, but not every single time I do something wrong.
He basically tells me how much of a failure I am on a day-to-day basis, which really doesn't help my confidence. I think I'm going to go sign up for the navy, or something tomorrow, I'm incredibly bored with life, and none of the stuff in Ohio is helping. Excitement wise, at least.

I'm extremely hungry

I AM FREAKING HUNGRY.
SOMEBODY FEED MEEEEEE.

Ohio...

I suggest none of you ever go to Ohio, or come to Ohio, it's the most amazingly boring state in the country, well, next to Nebraska.

Also

I'll probably be on here way too much for my own good, so, I'll try to post whatever I can that I find interesting, even though, I can be pretty boring, sometimes.

Thinking

If you were in a situation that was an ultimatum, and you had to choose between two very huge things.
What would you do?

Today

Today is boring, completely boring.

Literally woken up, taken a shower, and gotten clothes ready for almost nothing. I think I'll go buy a video game today with my extremely limited money, in which I hope is re-endorsed by some unknown source. Wouldn't that just be too good to be true? Yes, yes it would be.
