One full year ago this day,words poured forth. So much to say,I was compelled to start this blogto help find my way through the fog.Tortured nights, chaotic thoughts,and enumerable 'shoulds' and 'oughts'pushed me towards insanity ...exposed my unescapable humanity.Days went by, and then several weeks.I received encouragement and tough critiques.Months then passed, and now a yearand that Saving

For some reason, this little snipet under the headline "U.S. officer: Iraqi army lacks discipline" (from CNN.com) made me crack up laughing:"Iraqi soldiers being trained by American military advisers go on rampages, flee from dangerous situations and waste ammunition in undisciplined bursts of fire at any provocation, according to an account in a U.S. Army journal."Something tells me the training

Ok. So my little sister sent me an email-game-thing yesterday that I thought would be fun to post here. I'm gonna tweak the rules a bit to make it interesting."Describe me in one word ... JUST ONE WORD."To make it a little more fun (and less ME centered), how about you post a one word description of me, and then give me two words that describe yourself.Your comment should look like this:Miroslav

"O, The Oprah Magazine" has a very interesting article in it this month entitled "What Adam and Eve Didn't Tell You" by Irwin Kula, 'an eighth-generation rabbi, author of the just-published Yearning: Embracing the Sacred Messiness of Life.'

In my last post, I mentioned my weakness of character when it comes to kindness to others in day to day interactions. I consider myself fairly loving, and go-the-extra-mile when it comes to BIG stuff (ie. crisis, need a friend to talk, need help moving, etc.), but I tend to be blunt and borderline rude in normal conversations... even with my friends (I'm probably being too generous to myself here

I wonder what a week without analyzing everything would be like. I'm gonna try it. From today on, no more in depth conversations with my wife trying to psychoanalyze each other, ... no more trying to figure out the meaning of life, ... and no more scrutinizing every action I take in life. I'm just gonna' take a big deep breath and live.Feeling better already.

While at the park today with some family, we saw a pro-illegal immigration rally. Apparently, we are not going to stop them from coming and we aren't going to send them back. And really, when you stop and think about the circumstances, how could we (both morally and practically)? This is the best opportunity for freedom, health, and escape from poverty that many of these people have. So how about

The Master Kat tells me that it is better to sail on the wrong boat, under the wrong flag, than no ship at all. He tells me that going through the wrong gateway, even with the pain and death that may accompany such a choice, is preferable to the slow and agonizing death that a life of paralysis promises. Something, even the wrong thing ... is better than nothing.He warns me: if nothing changes, I

We mourn the lives of the thousands of dead in the Middle East, and well we should. But contrast that to the tens of millions of lives lost in WWII. Now THAT was war.Every day, with every news broadcast, I'm more and more convinced that we are heading towards a large scale, multi-national World War that will end with millions dead. And in the end, perhaps that is the only way. Today it is

So I went to my cousin's wedding this weekend. Ended up having a blast at the reception with an old friend. I've known him for nearly twenty years and I have never seen him even come CLOSE to dancing.Did hell freeze over where you live too?!(pst... he is the one wearing the dark sunglasses as if he has had too much to drink.)

I've finished watching the two hour season finale for LOST. I actually liked last season's finale better. I agree whole heartedly with the following quote I nabbed from an online review of this year's last episode:"I can't get over my X-Files-type fears that this could all be leading to nowhere and that the writers have no idea where they're going. But for now, I'm still there each week. Damn it

Over the past several months, I've check PostSecret on a weekly basis. Such insightful stuff there. Painful and quasi-depressing from time to time. But so refreshingly gritty and real. I only wish there were an archive of some sort to peruse. Anyhow, over the past couple of months I've collected (read stolen) several submitted secrets from their blog. These entries lept out at me when I saw them.

No cause that I can think of, but a melancholy type emotion has hit me today, a longing for days gone by. A sort of sad remembrance of what life used to look like."That sounds sad, yet intriguing. Tell me more!"I remember the prayers that used to pour out of my heart and soul each day. No set daily devotions, I was never good at that. No agenda or protocol to follow. Just an ongoing discourse

Jack H once said, "...I can say, with considerable authority, that there is no observation we can make about pain, that is original. I wrote somewhere, of Adam clutching his dead son’s head, weeping tears his exile never taught him. Real pain is the pain we feel for the pain of those we love. Love harder, love more, then. Just to spite whatever bastard force there is in this world that loves evil

We have gone through our finances over the past couple of months and broken it down in to two categories: groceries and dining out. I'm embarassed to make this public knowledge.

You know how they say no question is a dumb question? Well... they are wrong.For the past several days I have been haunted by a really inane question. Every day, when I hop in my car and buckle my seat belt, I wonder ...Left Hand?Right Hand?Or a transfer / combo sort of thing?Yes. I want to know how YOU buckle your seat belt when you drive.

Celebration time! My big office move is nearly complete... and last week I received my big ol' profit bonus from last year. So, off we went to a uber-fancy restaurant last night with my wife, my office manager, and her boyfriend. One of the dishes served was these little "Crab Chips". Just before he served them, the chef had a volunteer come up and hold about 20 of the things in her hand while

Ok. On a slight break from the normally serious tone of this blog, two ultra short stories for your reading pleasure.Read 'em and laugh.1) "Chasing the flush" - Many years ago, a friend of mine was taking a leak in the bathroom. I heard the toilet flush, waited a second and nudged the door open as I walked in to take my turn. To my surprise, there he was with his pants still around his ankles ...

How would you like to be a tax guy? I thought insurance was a tough business, but man... when I think about it... tax work has got to be worse.Tonight I meet with my tax advisor. Not too excited about it. Ever since I've gone in to business for myself, tax time has a whole new feel to it compared to when I was an W-2 Employee. Gone are the days of nice little mysterious tax refund checks.

Here are some pics of the conference center where our meetings are being held. Tonight was the gala dinner event. We were greeted by a handful of protesters. Some non-Jewish protesters held signs referring the "Jewish Apartheid" and "The Occupation of Palestine". Another small group was from the Hassidim... apparently there is a small portion of them that oppose any Jewish state that comes before

I just finished reading "Night" by Elie Wiesel. I didn't plan it this way, but being given this book is turning out to be pretty amazing timing given that I'm heading off to the AIPAC conference this weekend. Elie Wiesel was a spiritually minded fourteen year old when he was taken in to the concentration camps of the Holocaust. The book tells of his horrific experiences while there which

Last night I returned from the "WildMen Weekend" put on by my church. I was impressed with the number of guys that turned out for the event. Twenty four people is pretty dang good for a church only six months old.I'm confused, was it Wild or Mild? Read more!The good:1) I had a very serious and intimate conversation with somebody that I've known on only a surface level up to this point. These

I have finished reading "the Cloud of Unknowing" and "the Book of Privy Counseling" by William Johnston, a gift to me by my elder brother. In essence, this book is a how-to for Christian men and women seeking to experience the fullness of God via meditation, or "contemplative prayer". It is my first reading of any books or material related to a mystic Christianity and it was certainly different

A peek in to what has been going on in my life and what is coming up soon:Prepare for Brain Dump.1) Grandma's Bday Party - Ha... I just called her Grandma. Thats funny.

This made me belt out a good ol' fashioned chuckle..."In Pakistan, the cleric Mohammed Yousaf Qureshi said the mosque and the religious school he leads would give a $25,000 reward and a car for killing the cartoonist who drew the caricatures — considered blasphemous by many Muslims.

I'm not sure what to make of the two areas of my life that I've seen the most change in since I started my New Year's Resolution. Well, the second item is a pretty predictable reaction I suppose. But I'm stumped on the first. Feedback welcome, as always.1) I am very very ineffective at work. I can't seem to concentrate. I'm totally scatterbrained. And all of this, as far as I can tell, is

In October of '05 I was stunned to find that I had reached my heaviest weight ever: 209lbs.Tell me more about your TurkeyNeck!I had been treating my body horribly for years and it finally caught up with me. I rarely exercised, ate buttered microwave popcorn with an extra topping of 1/5 of a stick real butter and extra salt four nights per week, and started virtually every day with a croissant

The answer is NO.When they tell you that you should shut off all the power before messing with the electrical switches in your house, they are totally being serious.Just ask me.Three freakin' times.(Totally worth it though 'cause now we have dimmer switches installed. Instant romance baby!)

Other than the obvious (the death of innocents), what bothers me most about all of these violent protests is this:How is it that there are these HUGE demonstrations across the globe over such a small incident as a political cartoon created by a 'infadel', while cold blooded murder by fellow Muslims in the name of Allah receive only surface-level, political statements in protest?

Ugh. My butt feels KICKED today. Hard.Been fighting off sickness for a couple of weeks. First a swollen throat / cough sort of thing. And now its a sort of head cold that my son and daughter had this week. It feels like everything is way too bright and my body is aching. So I'm sitting around the house and MyPrecious is calling out to me for some quality time. But I say no. I'm not going to shell

While definately not the point of Thomas Moore, Wikipedia provides an interesting take on the original meaning behind the Dark Night of the Soul:A term used to describe a specific phase in a Christian's prayer life. During the Dark Night, one who has developed a strong prayer life and consistent devotion to God suddenly finds traditional prayer extremely difficult and unrewarding for an extended

I just finished "Dark Nights of the Soul" - 'A guide to find your way through life's ordeals' by Thomas Moore. What a book. I received it as a gift from my dear wife this past Christmas. She is such a great woman. She had watched me struggle through the second half of 2005 and thought of me immediately when she saw the book online. I have LOVED reading this book. It is one of the most bizarre,

I've made my way through many of the short stories and essays written by C.S. Lewis that were collected and put in to the volumous 1024 page "Essay Collection & Other Short Pieces". He has a deep mind and an artist's touch with words.It is time for a rest... but when I pick up Lewis again I plan to read through "The Chronicles of Narnia".

A sort of writer's block has hit me. Or ... blogger's block as it may be. Just as many crazy thoughts are screwing my brain over, but less passion to write them all down. I think its primarily a result of the enormous energy deficit that I'm running on. Ever have times where you just feel beat for several days on end?

The disgustingly average weights of life are breaking my back today. Not quite depression really... something different than that.Anyhow, on my way out of HomeDepot a thought came to mind for a poem. I only have the last line so far... something along the lines of:What if chaos and insanityAre in fact reality?
