So I think its been just over a year since i was on this thing. I forgot i had it till I got my pass for blue. pretty stoked for the year, last year my freakin appendix blew up on me, that killed my season pretty good. So I'm hoping to at least get something going on the pipe this year, thats my goal. oh i just got back from Europe and Australia too that was pretty sweet except i got sick while down under, bummer but i'll be back someday. peace
So its been about 2 months since i've moved up to the beach here at
Sauble. Its been pretty good times so far, busy, chillin, playin heaps
of guitar and stuff. Today I went skimboarding for the first time and
first time I tried to jump on the board I slipped and fell on my wrist
and thought I broke it, but I don't feel like any more hospitals and I
think it's getting better now haha. Well I got on the board the second
time and was away which was sweet. So now I can skimboard. And 2 weeks
ago I wakeboarded for the first time. I'm slowly getting all the stuff
that I wanted to do in life done. Now i'm gonna have to get onto
surfing next. looking forward to it this winter. for now i'm gonna be
skimboarding every night that I can up here. thats whats going on in my
life peeps, peace
so i've just been thinking a lot lately. and there's been a few good
buddies of mine that have had broken relationships lately that have
turned into long talks through the night. and i've come to sort of
understand that it's all about the struggle in life you know. Just the
fact that I believe that it's possible to be freed from our own
addictions, but i never understood it to this level before. I am a
Christian, not in the conservative sort of traditional way you could
say, but I believe and follow the doctorine of love you know. the
unconditional sort. and so when i screw up i think to myself, if I am
supposed to be freed from sin and from screwing up, why do I still do
it you know... if I really believe what I say I do, I should be free
from sin and be able to sort of live a life that God wants me to live
and that doesn't involve sin... or so my mind thought. when *wham* it
hit me like an old batman movie. just the fact about the struggle.
thats where its at. its all about acknowledging the struggle, and what
struggles are more difficult than others. Then its about making the
right decisions when tempted. its not about being freed from
temptation, but about choosing the right thing when tempted. After all,
we are human, and thats what makes us human, the ability to choose
right. so when I just wanted to be freed from sin and other things, i
wanted to be freed from being human. dum dum dum, not going to happen.
After this revelation of sorts its been freeing to just know this and
walk with this new fact in mind. Some of you might have figure this out
loooong ago, and thats great, just that it hit me 2 days ago. If we've
got nothing to struggle in life, my life and beliefs are not worth
anything. It just goes with everything in life, we have to work for
anything for it to mean something to us. we could be given a car, or
work for a car, and the car we work for is worth more because we've put
ourself into it. so thats where i'm at, later peeps
so today I decided to wax my chest... bad idea is all I have to say.
and I know all your girls are like, we have to go through that alllll
the time, but no, you don't, cause you don't have to wax your chest,
only your legs and that doesn't NEARLY hurt half as much haha. but yea,
at least i will be hairless this summer yet again haha! well now that
that information is out, i'll leave it at that. peace all
bum bum bum, its beach time again! k so i'm moved up to sauble now for
good, and its soooo much smaller than toronto, i thought maybe there
would be a few people here because, ya know, its sauble beach, but no.
but its all good, i'm liking the smaller feeling. but if any of you are
looking for a place to get away, come to sauble and we'll hit up the
beach! yea yea. i'm getting a sweet tan though cause of all the beach
time which has been pretty sick. anyways peeps, i'm done school, workin
hard, and playin harder. keep it real
peace
America is sung to sleep by philosophies to save the trees and kill the children
How can we put trees above human life and justify abortion? I don't
hate people who do, it just hurts my heart to see it happen. I believe
in love and love is what people get, to hate would be to perpetuate
hypocracy. Some things in the world are just backwards is my point,
maybe we should worry more about our souls than about if we have all
the rights in the world to choose something that so obviously causes
more brokenness in the world. And I am no nieve to people who
have been raped because someone I loved was raped. I think God's plan
is bigger than anything we have or have not done. And it is not God who
brought brokenness in the world, it is our own state that is broken,
God brings a hope. And so when found in the broken state we should seek
the one true hope and heal some brokenness by offering pure love. thats
all I have to say. if you want to hear more leave a message
