The greater visibility of bad over good creates the illusion of its greater prevalence. When society mistakes visibility for frequency, it begins to perceive goodness as scarce. And when scarcity is perceived long enough, what was once considered bad gradually becomes normalized.

Do worshippers of idols realize that they are the creators of their own gods?

They create the gods before whom they submit and prostrate.

No wonder, idols break the hearts of their own worshippers.

There is perhaps no greater threat to human relationships than the absence of accountability. Where accountability is absent, conflict becomes perpetual, resentment accumulates, and relationships slowly become an endless drain.

Options may sometimes appear out of reach, not necessarily because they are limited, but more often because of the environment within which we confine ourselves.

If the purpose of love is merely to love, we diminish its value as a relational good when we give it indiscriminately to those who do not reciprocate it.

I so often wonder: does loving someone reveal or change their character? Does the presence of grace unmask a person, revealing them for who they truly are, or does it embolden them to become who the comfort of unconditional love allows them to be?

There are those who say they don’t need love. They treat those who truly love them as though they are helping them, like they should be grateful for the opportunity to love them. Because they don’t give love, they think it is something with no significance. They forget that it is through being loved that one gets the confidence to even feel like they can live without love. Hope, faith, joy and confidence are fruits from the love given to us, even when we don’t recognise it.

Love covers a multitude of wrongs and without it, we are exposed to the extreme versions of our undesirable selves, to the parts of us we constantly struggle to love.
So, the more you feel like you are too special to need love, you should be reminded that you have been loved so much that you were even able to feel special in the first place.

13 And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

When you abound in the love of one, you begin to see yourself through the eyes of the one who loves you.

I posted my July musing and then a friend commented with this response which is even more insightful on the subject matter.

“Crisp observations. Especially about how rejection fuels the 'desire' to then improve ourselves so that we get to show them that they were wrong. The probable reason why that's the case: Incentives move the world. Show me an incentive and can show you how people will respond. So, perhaps, indeed, man is incapable to improve himself naturally, he needs a rewarding reason to do so. Also, from a biology standpoint, we are wired to expend as little as energy as possible we are built to survive, not to thrive. So, to strive, we have to overcome our preservation mode and ways.” - Brad Odilo

I think generally in life, if you want to keep your boundaries firm, you have to reduce or stop asking for help. The more people help you and you need them to do so again, even though they be of the same gender, there are certain terms of theirs you will have to adhere to. And some of those are not very respectful.

To those who seek the truth, life isn't made easier by being given explanations for everything. It's made easier by being helped to accept what is. Honestly, some explanations, when they seem too far from the truth, only make things worse, making everything, even the truth itself feel like a lie.

In the same space where you have the right to say WHATEVER you want, others have an equal right to react HOWEVER they want to what you've said.

So, bring it on. 😂

Do you want to accept Christ as your saviour today? Can I tell you about Him and you see if that is what you want? Please reach out. I can even give you a call if you wish. ❤️

A huge mistake it is, to theorize before one has the data. Inevitably, one begins to twist facts to fit theories, instead of theories to fit the facts.

I want to be in love. I really do. It is beautiful to have someone I can call mine, to love someone.
But when having someone means surrendering the freedom to be alone forever, having someone in my bed every day, and eventually having other little human beings who depend on my attention to survive, I wonder if it is worth it.

If only life could give us both.

Maybe the saying, “You can’t always have what you want,” isn't really about how many things you can acquire. Maybe it is about whether you can have them exactly the way you want them. Whether you can somehow beat irony and get the beautiful thing without having to accept all the things that come with it. Not because they are bad but because you are not ready to handle them.

If you have a problem, that means it can be solved. If it cannot be solved then it is not a problem. It is a reality to be accepted (and lived with).
