label me please

alternative is no longer alternative, indie usually isnt indepedent and emo is most of the time far from emotional. Pop is becoming less popular, hardcore is no longer hardcore and R n B, you gotta be kidding… rhythm and blues?
gee, genres are silly arent they.

run run run.

in october im doing a half marathon! yep, thats 21 Kilometres. Ill be running 21 kilometres for the melbourne marathon which makes its way all the way around the city. Ill be running with my Pastor from church and i think the principle from the school i went to, Tim Rogers, whom ive never met. This is the first time i have run any such distance so i am starting to prepare for it now. Its a good thing to work towards in terms of fitness cause im terribly unfit, and also to loose some weight, cause im turning into a chubber.
when i was younger i used to run 1500 metres in my sleep. Got it down to state qualifying level back in year 10. I ran it in 4:40 which aint too bad. So i know my body is killer for long distance running, just gotta work out how far i can go haha.
i think we will be raising money for teen challenge. So if you wanna sponser me by K i something that i run then go ahead
Love ya all! all my friends! even the randoms that stumble upon this blog from mongolia! you’re cool too!

i bleed red too.

is christianity really that far-fetched, that distant from logic and reason that it is completely unbelieveable? I remember reading TIME magazine a year or two ago. It was a feature on the 100 most influential people over the past 300 years or something. Charles darwin was inevitably one of them. The heading was this:
‘Charles darwin: The man that killed God’.
And this is mostly true from a social point of view. But i do wonder whether the world, or rather the west, was simply just waiting for a replacement for God. As soon as Charles Darwin proposed this all, the world accepted it with open arms. The fact that the world was created by accident, infact everything is an accident. Everything that happens is just one big accident. There is no purpose or meaning underlying anything, its all just carbon and chemicals… matter on matter on matter on matter on matter. Im not go into some beasty dissitation on why i believe evolution is a whole lot of garbage. What i do want to say is this.
What if we are naturally spiritual beings? What if God did create us and everything else, and wants to know us the way long time lovers know one another? What if God was such a genius that he gave us free choice, gave us a relational longing, gave us free will? What if all the extreme strong feelings that we always feel, like love, loneliness, and wanting to be accepted and appreciated is because God put them there?
i say this because christianity, or watever you want to call it, makes so much sense to me.

Having said that, there are other times that i doubt it. Yep thats right, it doesn’t always make complete sense to me. That doesnt go to say that i suddenly believe in evolution every now and then. You see, some people think that we all follow our faith blindly. That we say yes pastor, three bags full pastor, done deal pastor, and go on with life like everything is happy clappy. We are real people too uno. I grapple with issues of my faith all the time, wondering whether this beast was just forced upon me or whether its actually real. As time has gone on though, i know and understand more and more of why i believe what i believe and how true my faith really is to me.

Life is something you can ensure but you cant be sure you’ll have it forever
Life is a gift, most of us treat like a job or a cop.
Life is a journey and we should help each other along the way, life is full of suprises, its beautiful and its good.
Life is not easy though, nobody ever said it would be.
Nothing in life is free and most of the time you have to pay double.
Life is an expierence that you have to be there for.
IF is the middle word in life and thats always the big question, hey at least we’re trying.
Take the F out and you have a lie, but you have to decide who’s doing the lying.
